Miracle Grow Fertilizer

Description

Here’s a simple and effective guide on how to use NPK fertilizer for indoor plants:

🧪 What is NPK Fertilizer?

• N = Nitrogen (leaf growth)
• P = Phosphorus (root & flower development)
• K = Potassium (overall plant health)

🌿 How to Use NPK Fertilizer on Indoor Plants

✅ 1. Choose the Right NPK Ratio

• Use a balanced one like 20-20-20 for general care.
• For leafy plants: Use more Nitrogen (e.g., 30-10-10).
• For flowering plants: Use more Phosphorus (e.g., 10-30-20).

✅ 2. Dilute Properly

• Always dilute in water. For example:
  • If the label says 1 tsp per litre, mix exactly that.
  • Never apply directly to soil—it can burn roots.

✅ 3. Apply During Active Growth

• Use once every 2–4 weeks during spring and summer.
• Avoid in winter when plant growth is slow or dormant.

✅ 4. Water After Feeding

• Water the plant slightly before or after fertilizing to avoid root burn.

✅ 5. Observe the Plant

• Yellowing leaves = too much Nitrogen.
• Weak stems = too little Phosphorus.
• Brown edges = too much Potassium or salt buildup.

⚠️ Tips & Warnings

• Don’t over-fertilize. More is not better.
• Flush soil with plain water every 2–3 months to remove salt buildup.
• Organic options like compost or vermicompost can be used alongside NPK for better results.
