How do we keep our plants healthy?

 
 

Plants require a balanced diet of nutrients for healthy growth, similar to humans. Regular feeding, whether through natural methods or commercial fertilizers, is crucial for overall plant health and vigor. Properly nourished plants are more resistant to pests, diseases, and stress.

Here's a more detailed look at the importance of feeding plants:

Nutrient Absorption:

Plants obtain nutrients from the soil through their roots, and leaves can also absorb nutrients from foliar feeds.

Essential Nutrients:

Key nutrients include nitrogen (N) for leaf and stem growth, phosphorus (P) for root development, and potassium (K) for flowering and fruiting.

Soil Health:

Healthy soil with ample organic matter provides a rich source of nutrients and supports beneficial microorganisms that further enhance plant health.
