organic-growing organic ferts suggestions

I am currently using neptunes harvest about once a week, dyna grow silica, worm castings as fast as i can make them. All i have left for ferts is a bottle of slow release MG from when i wasn't organic.
 
I am looking at buying fox farms happy frog all purpose fertilizer because its organic, does anyone else have any suggestions or comments?
 
Please note that
 
  • I know what the difference between fertilizer and soil amendment is
  • I have my soil tested about once every two years, and my soil is primarily clay. Amending the soil is an ongoing battle. I'm low usually in nutrients across the board.
  • I add compost, mulch, egg shells, used coffee grounds, and bone meal every year.  This year I dumped 3 yards of compost.
 
Fox farm Nuts aren't 100% organic from what I been told by a few people.   I used Fox farm nuts and like them, but this year I am trying to use as little store bought nuts as I can and will be making Teas!!

Their "Big Bloom" is organic, the Tiger Bloom and Grow Big are not 100% organic.
Look into Earth Juice, it's about the same price and 100% organic.
 
I'm using foxfarm happy frog potting mix with great results. After I potted them up this year, I waited almost 3 weeks to feed. I feed with general organics biothrive, CaMg+, biobud, and diamond black humid acid like always.
