I like to use a fish emulsion product. The brand available at several places where I am is "Alaska", there are probably other brands and you can even make it if you find yourself with a pile of leftover fish parts. It's generally 5-1-1 or 4-1-1, mostly nitrogen for green growth, and you just dilute it into water.
I don't know why people have downvoted you when what you said was probably the most accurate on here. I would also add that the Alaska brand has seaweed emulsion that works as an amazing fertilizer as well. I normally rotate through fish, seaweed, and a low level synthetic (10-10-10).
