To apply 14-8-14 GREEN FLAG fertilizer effectively, follow these simple steps:
Dosage: Check the package instructions for the amount of fertilizer to use. The dosage may vary depending on the size of your planting and the desired nutrient concentration.
Spreading: Distribute the fertilizer evenly around the base of your blueberries, hydrangeas or other acid-loving plants. You can do this by hand or using a spreader.
Digging: Use a rake or shovel to lightly mix the fertilizer with the top layer of soil. Be careful not to damage plant roots.
Watering: After application, water thoroughly so that the fertilizer penetrates the soil and reaches the roots. This will help activate the nutrients.
Frequency: Repeat application according to specific recommendations for each plant type. In general, it is good to fertilize in early spring and late summer.
Monitoring: Monitor the growth of your plants and adjust fertilizer application accordingly. If you notice signs of deficiency or excess, change the frequency of application.
Remember to wear gloves when handling the fertilizer and wash your hands thoroughly afterward. Enjoy your well-fed acid-loving plants!
