Jacks Citrus plus (Veg) + Aquagold(Flower) Worked very well for alotta folks in the past. I bought the 5 lb bucket of Aquagold. Gave about 3.5 lbs away when I stopped running it after 4 years or so lol

We've got a dry climate. Not as dry as it used to be, but still dry.
Not too much problem with root rot, though years ago I successfully battled fusarium wilt over the course of several cloning phases.
Dry here as well.... high mountain desert. I don't worry about root rot or Power Mildew.
Some live Dr Feelgood - from 1975 - I saw them a couple of times the following year - when I was sweet 16 - great band - great gigs

It's the new Zill M-4. Zill used Kent to make a lot of his designer mangos. I used to have all the great Gary Zill designer mangos which I grafted to rootstock. Lost most to some catastrophe, heater failures and such, which has now been resolved with lots of spare propane tanks, wireless temp alarm, etc. I still have Lemon Zest, Orange Sherbet, Glenn, Juicy Peach and Pickering. Hope to get Rosigold from Alex of Tropical Acres. Lost stuff like Pineapple Pleasure, Fruit Punch, Cotton Candy, etc. Folks who have never tasted a homegrown mango don't know what they're missing. One of those eyes closed over the sink experiences, pure Nirvana!
We had an incredible avocado last night from my greenhouse, just pure nutty cream, very rich, super small seed. I only grow SoCal types like Jan Boyce, Kona Sharwil, Reed, Ardith, GEM, Lamb Hass, etc.
@buzzmobile, do you know Carlos delaTorre of Homestead? He used to have a 20 acre orchard. Great site, good friend. Haven't touched base with him in years though. He's been hit by that damn laurel beetle and hurricanes. https://www.myavocadotrees.com/
You'll recognize this name I bet - Oro Negro.

Yep, old habits die slowly. It's called a "paradigm" driven behavior which I never fell into.
Think that's simple, try Osmocote Indoor-Outdoor Plus. While folks are busy ranting about and fucking up their faves with cannabis rocket fuels via forum bro science, especially the "bloom foods" which always ends up in a disaster, I'm just watering mine with rainwater and watching them grow. For example, here's one in the greenhouse. This one just sexed female.
Used Jack's for decades. Still am using 2 25# bags - Petunia Feed and the 25-5-15. Shitcan those cannabis foods. They suck.

Vermiculite is all I'll use to bulk up and aerate. Perlite breaks down easily, tends to compact and breathing the dust is not cool.
Root rot? Quite the contrary. If you got root rot you may not have enough foliage wicking off excessive soil moisture. My problem is being lazy about watering which always ends up in some leaf loss.
Perlite is in Berger BM7, one of the best pine bark/peat based soils I buy albeit it's increased 3X in a year.
Got too many irons in the fire....
