❓FERTiLiZER PREFERENCES
I've been doing a ton of research on several of my plants lately and have been taking note of the best element/mineral ratios that allow the different specific species to really thrive. After going down a rabbit hole on reddit, I'm bringing the question here—
⤑What is YOUR favorite fertilizer?
⤑ What is the fertilizer(s) that you have had the MOST, and LEAST success with?
⤑ Do you fertilize on a schedule, or every watering?

Trying to make every plant ,every days habitat , growth rate exactly the same, or every plants needs the same even in the same plants let alone 2 different ones is just imposdible. Gardening isnt a 1 answer 1 size approach. That being said neither is fertlizer or fertlizing. Know your plants individual needs growth rates dormancy etc etc and just learn. Alot of times just by failing 🤷♂️ 35 yrs at it i still fail@plenty and still have tons to learn. Thats why its so awesome !
My fert options here are prob WAY different from most places, but i generally use Vitalis Organic Frass Biofertiliser [malaysia brand] as a foliar spray for my Alocasia. For my orchid i do Horti Houseplant and Orchid Food [local brand]. Note that i never really had the chance to try other ferts, but here the Growth Technology brand [australian]] and Nutricote 180 are popular
