How to feed

Nitrogen (ammonium sulfate) 21-0-0

Broadcast at 1/2 pound per 100 sq.ft.

 

Shrubs&Evergreens: Sprinkle 1/4 cup evenly around drip line of plant and work into top 1 inch of soil.
Trees/Fruit : 1/2 pound per 1 inch of trunk diameter. Distribute evenly under branches out to drip line.

Mix 1 to 3 tablespoons per gallon of water.

spray the leaves

Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate)

a quarter-cup of Epsom salt per 500 square feet when you irrigate your plants. Gardenstartup: 1 cup per 100 square feet. Mix into soil before planting.

 Evergreen = 1-2 tbs/gallon  to the soil and spray once 1-2 week.
Shrubs =1 tbs/gallon/9 sq ft over the root zone. every 2-4 weeks.
Trees and fruit: 2 tablespoons per 9 square ft by diluting in water. Apply 3 times each year

·      Fertilize your soil in the winter, about a month before growing season starts, and then add Epsom salt when you set the plants. With sandier soil, you may want to fertilize about two weeks before growing season begins. Look for yellowing between the veins of leaves, because it could be a sign of magnesium deficiency that might require Epsom salt.

For rose, pepper, tomato, 1 to 2 tbs with 1 gallon water to the soil and spray once 1 to 2 week for plants growing green well and good fruit.

Fruit: Mix Epsom salt with water at a ratio of about a quarter-cup of Epsom salt per 500 square feet when you irrigate your plants.
     making the nutrients more available to the plants. as a secondary nutrient and  fruit sweeter.

Gypsum (Calcium Sulfate)

 

 

·        Increases earthworms in soil. the best for soils with high PH level but calcium deficiency.

·         

·        Improves the soil drainage

·        Prevents soil erosion. Boosts the soil structure

·        Upgrades the soil water relations. Reduces surface water runoff thereby reducing phosphorus and nitrogen loss from soil

 

Monopotassium Phosphate

 

3 to 5 lbs. per 100 gallons

once every 4-6 weeks in most cases for the maintenance purposes. And apply when start blooming time.

 

Keep a minimum of 7 days between application. Do not apply to crops under stress.

Plants food

 

 

teaspoon baking soda 1 tablespoon Epsom salts½ teaspoon of ammonia 1 gallon of water

 

Mix to soil or spray the plants.

Neem oil

apply neem oil is in a soil drench, which involves pouring the diluted solution directly on the soil. This is a good method for treating fungus gnat larvae, nematodes, and other soil-borne pests. When applied as a soil drench, the compound azadirachtin is also taken up by plants through roots and works as a mild systemic pesticide against certain insects (such as aphids) that feed on the foliage by sucking plant juices.

 

Begin by mixing the water and soap. For a gallon of water use one teaspoon of soap, and for a quart spray bottle, reduce the amount of soap to ¼ teaspoon. After the water and soap are mixed, add a small amount of neem oil, one to two tablespoons per gallon of water, or one to two teaspoons per quart of water.

Foliar sprays should be applied by misting the entire plant, covering both the undersides and topsides of leaves as well as stems. A second application is usually required 7 to 10 days after the first. Neem oil isn't recommended for recent transplants, certain thin-leaved herbs or leafy greens, and plants exhibiting stress, since they can be particularly sensitive.

Plants foods Ingredients:

·        1 teaspoon baking soda

Baking soda on plants causes no apparent harm and may help prevent the bloom of fungal spores in some cases. It is most effective on fruits and vegetables off the vine or stem, but regular applications during the spring can minimize diseases such as powdery mildew and other foliar diseases.

·        1 tablespoon Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate)

Epsom salt helps separate fertilizer bound to the soil, making the nutrients more available to the plants.

·        ½ teaspoon of ammonia

·        1 gallon of water

Add plant food directly to the soil so that the plant’s roots can best absorb the nutrients. Start by lightly topping your soil once a month and adjust how often you feed your plants based on how they respond.

 

For rose, pepper, tomato, 1 to 2 tbs with 1 gallon water to the soil and spray once 1 to 2 week for plants growing green well and good fruit.

Trees absorb Epsom Salt best over the root zone. Use 2 tablespoons per 9 square feet by diluting in water. Apply 3 times each year.

 For shrubs (evergreens, azaleas, rhododendron), apply 1 tablespoon per 9 square feet over the root zone by diluting in water. Apply every 2 to 4 weeks.
