Fertilome (11772) Blooming & Rooting Plant Food 9-58-8, 3 lbs

Planting flowers and vegetables takes time and effort. It is very rewarding to enjoy the beauty of an individual flower and/or tomato off the plant you have been taking care of. Using this product is a way to boost that investment and make sure you get a better result. I was turned on to this by our local nursery a few years back and have had excellent results using it with anything from Hibiscus in pots to petunias in the ground. I have even experimented with bringing back to life things that I had neglected by watering them with this and fortunately it has worked and it gives me a second chance to make things right between me and my plants.

USE THIS! I have used this for over 10 years to keep my summer blooms going strong. It helps annuals bloom ALL summer. I use on perennials during before and during their season too. Between deadheading and this, I feel I have longer bloom times. I use this and their chelated liquid iron, very dilute for the first week or so with each watering. I then use as recommended each week or two all summer. The foliage is nicely green and the blooms true to their color AND plentiful. I was initially turned onto this stuff when I asked a local nursery how they kept their baskets so beautiful and haven't looked back since. Slow release pellets just don't compare. I'll take the little extra time to mix this up for these results.

Love this fertilizer for my flower pots my flowers have more flowers due to this fertilizer

Very happy with this plant food so far. I started using it to help encourage stronger rooting and better blooming, and I’ve already noticed healthier growth and more vibrant flowers on several plants. The powder mixes easily with water, and a little goes a long way. I also like that it works well for transplanting and helping stressed plants recover faster. The high phosphorus formula seems to really help with blooms and root development compared to standard all-purpose fertilizers. Good product to keep on hand if you want healthier flowering plants and stronger roots.

Use sparingly.

We've used this brand of fertilizer for 3 years for all our hanging flower baskets, herbs and tomatoes. I do it once a week and the difference is remarkable. This was the first time I ordered it on Amazon and I was incredibly disappointed when it arrived and there was a gigantic rock solid chunk of fertilizer in the bag. I had to open the bag, and literally pound the giant chunk with a hammer to break it up. It took about 20 minutes to break it up into usable powder. Pretty bummed about that, but the product is wonderful and worth the cost.

Flowers are growing like crazy

Trying some new fertilizers this looks like some good stuff too. The hardest part of shopping online or going to a store is finding a separate in a separate p and a separate K you always get formulas it's easy to get nitrogen all by itself but good luck getting the pee in the case separate so you can create your own ratios. So I don't think I'll be using any scientific math formulas this grow it's more or less sprinkle some of this into a 5 gallon of wire and stir it and water every plant with dilution so they're never without and they're never overdosed so water soluble is the way to go when you're trying to keep the nutrients where they need to be at all times without any root burn and have an easy way to flush out if you have to especially in grow bags. At this point most people are reviewing the process of using the fertilizer like the ziplock bag the scoop the smell whatever I find I have no problem with any of it. So I hope my plants think it's a five-star review too...we'll find out in the coming months.
