Clint uses Schultz's Orchid Fertilizer and Alaska Fish Fertilizer. He also said that Maxsea 16-16-16 would be fine too.
He has said in the past that copper and zinc content in any fertilizer, however low, may have something to do with pitcher death or long-term adverse affects to a nep, but of course he can't be sure. He's actually the person who taught me a couple years back that copper/zinc were toxic to neps.
Edit: The copper/zinc content in the fertilizer I use is no more than Maxsea or the Schultz that he uses. So I don't think that's the problem.
I asked him if there were instances where he'd use Shultz over the Alaskan of if he has just used both and got similar results. I'll touch back with his response when I get it.
