All Purpose Fertilizer

Once weekly through the growing season, using 1 Tbs per gallon for plants under 12 inches and 2 Tbs per gallon for larger plants. Diluting into your regular watering keeps nutrition steady across everything you're growing — consistent light feeding works better than occasional heavy applications for most plants.

Nearly everything: flowers, vegetables, herbs, houseplants, shrubs, and young trees all do well on this balanced ratio. Plants with specialized needs — orchids, blueberries and other acid-lovers, succulents, citrus — do better on their dedicated TPS formulas, but for a mixed garden this covers the majority.

Yes — that's what this is built for. A balanced all-purpose formula simplifies feeding when you're growing many different plants, and the nitrate-based nutrition suits the widest range safely. If a particular plant underperforms, that's the one to switch to a dedicated formula while the rest stay on this.

No — at the directed dilution, the formula is designed for regular use across the garden. All-nitrate nitrogen and low salt concentration make burn very unlikely, even on seedlings and tender new plantings. For anything recently transplanted, start at half strength for the first two feedings.

New growth typically comes in greener within the first couple of weeks of regular feeding. Because it feeds such a range of plants, the response varies — fast growers show quickly, while shrubs and slower plants improve over the season.
