There are so many types of fertilizer it’s hard to know which one to use. Which NPK ratio is best? Is one brand better than another? Organic vs synthetic. Soluble vs slow release. This all seems so complicated, but in this post I will simplify the whole process of selecting the best fertilizer.
Key Takeaways
- The best NPK ratio for most plants is 3-1-2, some like 3-1-3.
- There is no such thing as plant specific fertilizer.
- Mix fertilizer so nitrogen is at about the 100 ppm level.
- Fertilize with every watering, use just water once a month to flush the pot.
