How to apply fertilizers to the folium
Foliar fertilizers are applied directly to the leaves of plants through spraying. They are used to add nutrients to plants. You can use them to treat all kinds of plants: fruits, vegetables; flowers; trees; shrubs; grasses; lawns.
When applying foliar fertilizers, there is no risk of 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 work best when the plants are actively growing. This allows them faster to absorb the nutrients. When you're ready to fertilize your garden, follow these steps:
-
Be sure to understand what type of fertilizer is needed. Some products only have one nutrient while others contain multiple elements. Ask your local nursery or gardening center if you don't know which product you need.
-
Follow the directions carefully. Before spraying, read the label. Spraying near windows or doors could cause damage. Keep away from children, pets.
-
Use a hose attachment if available. To avoid spraying too much, turn off nozzle after every few sprays.
-
Mixing different types is a dangerous thing. Mixing two types of fertilizers can lead to harmful side effects such as leaf burning and staining.
-
Spray at least five to six feet from the trunk. The trunk of the tree should be at least three feet from the edge of where you intend to apply fertilizer.
-
Wait until the sun is down before applying. The sun causes light-sensitive fertilizer chemicals to be broken down by sunlight.
-
Spread the fertilizer evenly on the leaves. Spread the fertilizer evenly over large areas.

Allow the fertilizer to dry completely before watering.
