How To
How to apply Foliar Fertilizers
Foliar fertilizers may be applied to the leaves of plants by spraying. They provide nutrients for the plant as well as improving photosynthesis, water retention, disease resistance, protection against pests, and promote growth and development. You can use them to treat all kinds of plants: fruits, vegetables; flowers; trees; shrubs; grasses; lawns.
Foliar fertilizers can be applied without soil contamination. The type of soil, the size and amount of foliage, as well as the type of plant will all determine the fertilizer required. Foliar fertilizers work best when the plants are actively growing. This will allow them to absorb nutrients quicker. When you're ready to fertilize your garden, follow these steps:
-
Be sure to determine the right type of fertilizer for you. Some products only contain one element, while others may include multiple elements. If you're not sure which product is right for you, you can ask your local nursery.
-
Carefully follow the instructions. Before spraying, be sure to read and understand the label. Avoid spraying near windows or doors as this could cause damage. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
-
If possible, use a hose attachment. Turn off the nozzle after each few sprays to avoid excessive spraying.
-
Mixing different types can lead to dangerous results. Mixing two different types can have harmful effects, including burning or staining.
-
Spray at least five to six feet from the trunk. It is important to leave at least three foot between the tree trunks, and the edge of any area you intend to apply the fertilizer.
-
Wait until the sun sets before applying fertilizer. Sunlight causes the fertilizer's light-sensitive chemicals to become inactive.
-
Spread the fertilizer evenly on the leaves. Spread the fertilizer evenly over large areas.
-
Allow the fertilizer time to dry completely before watering.
