How to apply Foliar Fertilizers

Foliar fertilizers are applied to plants directly by spraying. Foliar fertilizers provide nutrients to the plants, as well as promoting growth and protection from adverse weather conditions. They can be used to treat all plants, including fruits, vegetables and flowers as well as trees, shrubs, lawns, and grasses.

Foliar fertilizers don't pose any risk to soil pollution. 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 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.

  • You should know which type of fertilizer you require. Some products only contain one element, while others may include multiple elements. Ask your local nursery if you don’t know what product you need.
  • Pay attention to the instructions. Before applying, please read the label. Spraying near doors and windows can cause damage. Keep away from children and pets
  • If you have a hose attachment, use it. To avoid overspray, turn off the nozzle after every few sprays.
  • Mixing different types of foliar fertilisers can cause problems. Mixing two kinds of fertilizers can lead, among other things, to burning or staining your leaves.
  • Spray at least five feet from the trunk. A minimum of three feet should be left between the tree trunks and the edge of your area where you plan for fertilizer application.
  • Wait until the sun sets before applying fertilizer. Sunlight causes the fertilizer's light-sensitive chemicals to become inactive.
  • Spread the fertilizer evenly over the leaves. For large areas, spread the fertilizer with an even hand.
  • Let the fertilizer dry completely before watering.
