@kousa,
I have used it for several years, at least four I think. I normally apply 2 to 4 tablespoonfuls around each plant in the early spring. Dan Hansen says in one of his videos about preparing the beds, "Nothing greens up seedlings like Milorganite", I put that in quotes, but that may not be exact. I do it again in the fall, and when I have a new bed I broadcast it over the bed.
Now the important questions, has my soil improved and have I seen an increase in earth worm activity? You had better believe it, a huge improvement, tremendous improvement!!! Now I did not say that was due to the Milorganite...I am sure some of the improvement is, but being I have added tons or organic matter such as leaves and grass clippings and pine straw over the past many years and in the daylily beds for the past eight years. I do also use commerical granular fertilizer in my garden, and I can't tell it has done any harm or any good, I just feel with all the organic material I add throughout the year that I need extra nitrogen. I have not done a soil test because I add so much stuff every year I am not sure a soil test would be of any help. I just look at how the plants are growing and try to judge from that: as long as the great majority of them look healthy I feel if I am not doing something great, at least I am not doing something terrible. If the plants look happy, and the worms look happy then most of the time I look pretty happy also.
