📘 Application Guide: How to Use
🔍 NPK Breakdown
| Nutrient | Role in Plant Growth |
|---|---|
| Nitrogen (10%) | Promotes lush foliage and early-season shoot growth |
| Phosphorus (5%) | Encourages root development and early flower/fruit formation |
| Potassium (15%) | Boosts drought resistance, stress tolerance, and flower longevity |
This ratio is ideal for kickstarting growth in plants prone to dry environments, especially in container-grown hanging baskets.
📅 When to Apply
Timing: Early spring, when soil temps reach 60°F–75°F (15°C–24°C)
Frequency: Apply every 1 to 2 weeks during the early growing season
Climate Consideration: Avoid application during extreme heat or drought stress
💧 How to Apply
🔹 Liquid Method (Recommended for Baskets)
Dilution: Mix 1 tablespoon fertilizer per 1 gallon of water
Pre-Watering: Ensure soil is moist before applying to avoid root burn
Application: Gently pour the solution directly onto soil (not foliage) until it drains from the base
Repeat: Reapply every 7–14 days depending on plant performance and weather
🌿 Plant Health Tips
Ensure your baskets drain well—never fertilize waterlogged soil
For young or newly transplanted plants, start with a more diluted mix
Monitor for signs of over-fertilization: leaf tip burn, crispy edges, or stunted growth
