GETTING YOUR PLANTS’ NUTRITION RIGHT
How to make sure they get the goodness they need
FOR plants to perform their best they need a balanced mix of easily accessible nutrients. However, in our quest for horticultural perfection we are often tempted to feed more than is necessary and the affects can be as damaging as those of not feeding plants enough.
On these pages I take a look at the main nutrients required for healthy growth and what can befall plants when they are absent. I also explain the dangers of over-enthusiastic feeding and suggest a ‘quick fix’ for when weakened plants need immediate help.
Feeding your plants may seem confusing and scientific, but by following instructions and learning to read your plants’ ‘signs’, you can create a beautiful and healthy garden.
