| angela9049's Full Review: Miracle-Gro All-Purpose Plant Food |
I will only use Miracle-Gro plant food for all my plants whether they are flowers, shrubs, trees, etc.
We recently had a large tree removed from our front lawn because it clogged up our sewer line.
I have always hated this tree because it has such large roots that we could never grow anything in our front yard.
We tried using sod which cost a fortune only to see the lawn mower pull it up from the ground.
No matter how much peat moss or dirt we put down it would get washed away.
Finally we had the tree removed and I thought I could replant grass seed and have a beautiful lawn and lovely flowers growing.
This never happened because the ground was so bad because of roots nothing would grow even though the tree was removed.
I dug up what little grass we had and decided to cover the ground with as much top soil as I could without it covering my sidewalk.
I planted rose bushes and mums as I know they are hardy and will grow well.
After planting 15 rose bushes and 15 mums in various colors, I filled my Miracle-Gro No Clog Feeder and sprayed all the plants.
In about a month, I had the most beautiful and strong plants.
The rose bushes were covered with flowers and they continued to bloom all summer long.
The mums blossomed a little later and because they were large cushion mums, they were packed with flowers, so packed with flowers and so large that they had to be cut back because they were growing past my sidewalk.
Since then every year my flowers have come back and are just as beautiful as the first year that they were planted.
I have added lilies, azaleas, and many perennials,flowers that return year after year.
Miracle-Gro is a plant food that can be used for any type of plant,shrub,tree or vegetable.
It contains many nutrients and minerals that will feed plants through their roots as well as their leaves producing stronger more healthy plants.
I purchase the 5 pound box that contains 4 individual feeder reload packets.
Each packet is used in the Miracle-Gro No-Clog Feeder and this packet is pre-measured for use.
For all flowers and vegetables use, apply one to two gallons of solution every 10 square feet of area.
If you use a little more or less of the solution that will not hurt plants.
I repeat this method of watering my plants every 2 weeks for most of my flowering plants.
All other scrubs and trees should be watered according to the directions on the back of the box.
I have also used Miracle-Gro for my house plants giving me the same great results as my outside plants.
Miracle-Gro is so confident with their product that they will give you a satisfaction guarantee, if within 6 months of purchase if you are not completely satisfied with their product, return the empty package with your sales slip and they will return your money.
To me that is a good reason to use Miracle-Gro because that shows how confident this company is in their product.
They also have their own web site printed on the inside flap of the box.
This web site is www.miracle-gro.com and it contains gardening tips and information which is quite helpful to any gardener.
