A well known garden TV celebrity had a lot of home brews for plants. One in particular for nitrogen was 1tsp ammonia/1qt of water or 1Tbs ammonia/1gal of water. It may however turn your soil to an alkaline condition as ammonia is alkaline. I have tried it using 1/2 the recommended dosage and it seemed to work. Also although not a fertilizer but hydrogen peroxide mixed the same is supposed to oxygenate the soil at the lower level of the pot it's growing in. That to I have tried. No bad effects yet.
