How To

How to apply foliar fertilizers

Foliar fertilizers are applied to plants directly by spraying. Foliar fertilizers are used to provide nutrients to plants. They also help to increase photosynthesis and water retention, resist disease, protect against pests and promote growth. They can be used to treat any plant, including fruits, vegetables, flowers, trees, shrubs, grasses, and lawns.

When applying foliar fertilizers, there is no risk of soil pollution. The type of plant, the size of the plant and how many leaves it has will determine how much fertilizer is needed. Foliar fertilizers can be applied when the plant's active growth is taking place. This will allow them to absorb nutrients quicker. These are the steps to follow when fertilizing your garden.

  • Make sure you know what kind of fertilizer you need. Some products contain only one nutrient; others include multiple elements. If you're not sure which product is right for you, you can ask your local nursery.
  • Pay attention to the instructions. Before spraying, read the label. Spraying near windows and doors can cause damage to the structure. Keep away from children, pets.
  • If possible, use a hose attachment. To prevent overspray, you should turn off the nozzle between sprays.
  • Mixing different types can lead to dangerous results. Mixing two kinds of fertilizers can lead, among other things, to burning or staining your leaves.
  • Spray at least five ft from the trunk. The trunk of the tree should be at least three feet from the edge of where you intend to apply fertilizer.
  • Wait until the sun goes down before applying. Sunlight causes the fertilizer's light-sensitive chemicals to become inactive.
  • Apply the fertilizer evenly to the leaves. Spread the fertilizer evenly over large areas.
  • Let the fertilizer air dry before watering.
