Plants
need fertilisers to grow well. There are two main general categories of
fertilisers: organic and inorganic. Compost, mulch, and manure are some
examples of organic fertilisers that are formed naturally. Chemical fertilisers
are mined or man-made and can be purchased throughout gardening retail outlets.
A soil
test is highly recommended before fertilisers are added to the garden.
Garden
plants that require fertilisation during spring /summer are:
- annuals
- pot plants
- trees and mature shrubs
- vegetables
- fruiting trees
Either
applying organic or inorganic fertilisers, mix well into soil and follow up
with watering. Avoid direct contact of chemical fertilisers with plant tissue.
