Fertilizing blackcurrants and gooseberries small garden

Hi I am planning to grow some black/red/white currants and gooseberries. In my garden soil is in not the best condition. I am just starting making ohn + I am planning to use fpj and lab along. I wonder if fish meal + kelp meal + maybe insect frass would be complete fertilizer ? Ohh and I am making my own wormcasting aswell so I would be topdressing plants with it aswell, but its not big amounts :) Gooseberries are quite heavy K feeders but they also don't like to much nitrogen. I been planning to use chicken manure pellets or fish blood and bone but I am not sure is it good idea because of all antibiotics etc. What do you guys think ? In the future I am planning to collect maybe some imo and make my own faa.

all the things u said r great theres no reason u cant add whatever u want to the soil remember gardening is never 1 way to do anything and the best way to garden is what works for u maybe your a double dig person maybe your a ruth stout it doesn't matter if your happy doing it and u get results good or bad its all lesson learnt -----the difference between the master and the student is that the master has failed more times then the student has even tried----- never be scared to try something new in your garden (test small)   Happy Experimenting
