Ready for blooms? Diapers + Miracle-Gro= Sucuess
I use this exclusively with all of my succulents. It works well and lasts at least a month or so.
You can MIX it with WATER or SPRAY DIRECTLY on the dirt and add water after.
You need to MAKE SURE TO ADD WATER AFTER ADDING DIRECTLY TO THE DIRT AND DONT GET IT DIRECTLY ON THE PLANTS IT WILL BURN THEM.
I see a lot of reviewers keep saying this is a FOAMING food and that is NOT TRUE. I have bought at least 10-15 of these and not one of them has been foaming. Nowhere on the bottle does it say foaming. Possibly a very old version used to be, but this is not.
The photos included are before and after about two weeks.
A great tip I found for improving my succulents is to include the watered, gel from the inside of a diaper. I add water to the diaper, then cut it open, and pull out the "gel" and mix it with dirt, sand, and perlite. It helps protect you from over or under watering the plants. It helps tremendously if you go long stretches away from home. Lots of you tube videos available that you should check out.
