🔍 Why 5-10-15 Works for Heavy Feeders
Nitrogen (5%) – Promotes healthy leaf and stem growth without over-fueling foliage
Phosphorus (10%) – Strengthens roots and encourages flowering and fruit set
Potassium (15%) – Enhances plant resilience, drought tolerance, and disease resistance
This mix is perfect for prepping your garden post-harvest or during off-season soil conditioning.
📆 When & How to Apply
🪴 Application Timing
Late summer to early fall is ideal for applying this fertilizer. Apply before the first freeze to ensure nutrients are locked into the soil and available in spring.
✍️ Instructions by Growing Method
Method | Application Rate | Instructions |
---|---|---|
Garden Beds | 1–2 lbs per 100 sq ft | Evenly broadcast, mix into top 6–8" soil, and water deeply |
In-Ground Plants | 1/2–1 cup per plant | Circle base, avoid stem contact, mix into top layer and water |
Container Plants | 1 tbsp per gallon of soil | Mix into top few inches and water thoroughly |
🌡️ Soil Temperature Guide
Apply when soil is between 60°F and 75°F (15°C–24°C).
This range supports maximum nutrient absorption and sets the stage for root establishment before dormancy.
