They should all do well and it won't be long before you're harvesting baby greens for a wonderfully fresh salad. As for homemade organic fertilizer-- here are a couple of recommendations: if you're using manure in the vegetable bed, make sure it is well aged; you can also make your own compost or manure tea which is a terrific plant booster.
