It has been raining about 5 days out of 7 here. Does that make a difference to how often container plants should be fed?

  1. as a general rule, yes.

    Outside plands - planyed in the ground will typicall need fretilizing every 4-6 months. If you have a pland in a pot, you will want to fretilise it every 3-4 months, depending on the sort of plant it is. If this is a flowring plant, you will want to keep to this regement. If it is not, you will want to fertilise less often, say 2-3 times a year. you typically only REALLY need it at the beginning of the growing/flowering season. this is when the plant homes out of "hybernation" and takes up the most neutrients.

    I would suggest looking online at the specifics that are reccomended for the plant you have.


  2. they can be fertilize once or twice a month

  3. The answer is yes.

    Give the plant u keep on a container rather its a house plant or other plant u keep on a container some plant food.

    Or give them some mulch like animal f***s but only if u keep it outside of the home bury the mulch on the dirt on the container under the plant or near the plant.

    Raid usually does help a plant grow but it need other nutrients and when it grows it needs more space.

    If u leave the plant on the rain for days the plant can easily die or as some people say it over water the plant or drown the plant.

    Just use plant food that u can buy almost anywhere or a plant store where u can buy any type of plants.

    Always keep the plant with fertilized soil by using small foams and breaking them apart and mixed them with the nutrients from your yard park and near the tree that grows anywhere.

    Or you can buy soil from a garden store it comes with tiny foams and has its own nutrients.

    Good luck.

  4. In general no. but container or outside plants can be fertilized weakly. Some people use Miracle Grow on a regular basis in watering. Good luck
