  • Most plants need a regular "diet" of all-purpose plant food, either specialty (labeled for your specific plant type) or a generic N-P-K (nitrogen - phosphorus - potassium).
  • Fertilize early in the plant's growing cycle - spring for summer plants, fall for winter plants.
  • For leafy plants, use a fertilizer with a higher nitrogen content (first number).
  • For flowering or fruiting plants, use a fertilizer higher in phosphorous content (middle number).
  • If using a water-soluble fertilizer:
    • Mix as directed on the container according to directions.
    • Wet the leaves and drench the soil.
    • Repeat.
  • If using a granulated fertilizer:
    • Scatter a small amount of all-purpose fertilizer lightly under plants from the stem to beyond the outer spread of branches or foliage.
    • Water slowly and deeply.
