“When do I apply fertilizer to trees and vegetables“? This is a very basic and essential question that new and old growers alike ask. If you don’t apply fertilizer to trees and vegetables at the right time and in the right amounts, there is a high risk of doing harm instead of good. At best, fertilization may not have the expected results.
I present a summary table of when to fertilize trees and vegetables and with which fertilizers.
I believe it will help us in planning our garden work.
The references to organic and inorganic fertilising substances are indicative.
You should follow the links to see the details on proper fertilization.
Only then will you have the complete information.
The fertilizations listed in the pre-sowing periods refer to soil preparation.
