How long does fertilizer “water” last?

Question

Hello! I’ve been fertilizing my plant “weakly”, 1/2 tsp to a quart of water. After I mixed the fertilizer with water I don’t use the full quart. How long can it sit around for continual use? Or do I need to mix a new batch each watering?  #Fertilizer

I don’t know for sure exactly how long but I usually try to use up my fertilizer water within a week. I haven’t had any issues doing it this way 🤷🏻‍♀️

Some fertilizers will say in the back to use it right away so I just try to make what I think I can use up

i don’t think it’s meant to be set there for long periods of time, i try to use mine as soon as possible.
