    Oxygen Plus is the best but very hard to find.

    I have used Lipton tea. Just take about 4 bags and make tea in a 1/2 gall jug. Steep it at least a few hours , shifting to mix it every so often. Take out the bags, use at regular waterings.

    My aunt never used anything but tea on her african violets, and she always had many blooms. I used Miracle Gro fertilizer sticks and had over 30 blooms on a plant in a 4" pot.

    I use a plant food just for african violets. If they still aren't blossoming, try moving to a different spot. Light but not direct sunlight.
