How to apply foliar fertilisers

Foliar fertilizers are applied directly on the leaves of plants via spraying. Foliar fertilizers are used to provide nutrients to plants. They also help to increase photosynthesis and water retention, resist disease, protect against pests and promote growth. They can be used to treat any plant, including fruits, vegetables, flowers, trees, shrubs, grasses, and lawns.

Foliar fertilizers can be applied without soil contamination. The type of plant, the size of the plant and how many leaves it has will determine how much fertilizer is needed. It's best to use foliar fertilizers when the plant is actively growing. This allows them faster to absorb the nutrients. These are the steps you should follow to fertilize your yard.

  • It is important to know the type of fertilizer that you need. Some products only contain one nutrient, while others have multiple elements. Ask your local nursery if you don’t know what product you need.
  • Pay attention to the instructions. Before applying, please read the label. Spraying near doors and windows can cause damage. Keep pets and children away
  • If you have a hose attachment, use it. Turn off the nozzle after each few sprays to avoid excessive spraying.
  • Be careful when mixing different types of foliar fertilizers. Mixing two kinds of fertilizers can lead, among other things, to burning or staining your leaves.
  • Spray at least five feet from the trunk. A minimum of three feet should be left between the tree trunks and the edge of your area where you plan for fertilizer application.
  • Before applying, wait until the sun sets before you do. Sunlight causes the fertilizer's light-sensitive chemicals to become inactive.
  • Spread the fertilizer evenly on the leaves. Spread the fertilizer evenly over large areas.
  • Let the fertilizer dry completely before watering.
