watering and ferts

[crapblac]

Im really confused about watering and fertilizing my plants. I dont know how much or how often to water each plant and I dont know anything about fertilizing. I would appreciate the help.

you should water enough to keep the soil damp. keep in mind that the soil on the top will dry out but that doesnt always mean that your plant needs more water. its best to to stick a finger a little ways in and see if its damp (not to far because you do not want to mess with the roots).
for fert. a 30-10-10 or 20-20-20 is good. if you dont kno what that is sreach for NPK or things on fert.

I used Peter's 20-20-20. Its like 4 bucks at LOWES. I used 1/4 of a teaspoon to gallon of water. My plants growth was stunted but the peters gave it a good boost.

Peace

hey thanx. im still a little confused though. How much do i give the plant each time I water it? Do I give it fertilizer each time?

there isnt really a amount that is standered to water. just water it and use your best judgment as to how much u need. for fert. no . It should say on the bag how often to add it , mine was around 1 1/2 months but there differnt. and when you start to fert. use HALF of what it tells you to use, plants can easilly get a fert burn, they dont need much!
