Indoor Plant Fertiliser Tablets
Indoor plants require feeding from the time you get them home as nurseries typically only put enough fertiliser in the pots to last 4-8 weeks after purchase. If no further nutrients are added the plant will start a slow decline in the quality of the foliage and flowers. Garden fertilisers are not the solution to overcome this as this is like feeding them with a glass full of salt and will usually fast-track the death of the plant. Rather, we use controlled release fertilisers that release the right balance of nutrients slowly over 12-months. The Plant Company Indoor Plant Fertiliser Tablets are inserted into the media at the top of the plant pot and will release nutrients every time the plant is watered. For small plants (less than half a litre container) use one fertiliser tablet per pot each year. For medium size plants (container sizes up to three litres) use two fertiliser tablets each year. For larger plants use the fertiliser tablets at a rate of two per three litres of container size. These rates will suit all indoor plants, though should be halved for slow growing plants such as cactus.
