I've just bought some for the first time. Just the cheap stuff from the Warehouse at this stage - you mix one teaspoon with a litre of water. I'm wondering how much you use. As in once mixed, how much do you pour over each plant? Is it just a little or am I essentially watering the plant with it?? |

Will check with DH tonight but Im pretty sure he sprinkles his not mixed round the plants then waters them later...... Like a light covering of it. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Yep, just a handful sprinkled around the base so it sort of leaches into the soil with each watering/rain shower.
If you prefer to mix it and water it in, just water the plant as usual, you don't need to worry about giving a specific 'dose'. Chuck it on those capsicums

And capsicums were the first to get their dose!!! I hope it does the trick! |

We mixed ours and it was used as their watering for the day with it in it. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
