How To
How to apply foliar fertilisers
Foliar fertilizers are applied to plants directly by spraying. In addition to providing nutrients to the plant, they help increase photosynthesis, improve water retention, prevent disease, increase resistance against pests, promote growth and development, and provide protection from weather conditions. They can be used to treat any plant, including fruits, vegetables, flowers, trees, shrubs, grasses, and lawns.
Foliar fertilizers don't pose any risk to soil pollution. The type of plant, the size of the plant and how many leaves it has will determine how much fertilizer is needed. Foliar fertilizers are best used while the plant is still actively growing. This allows them more time to absorb nutrients. Follow these steps when fertilizing your garden.
