Water-soluble fertilizer is a powder or crystal you mix with water. The plant drinks it through leaves or roots. It works faster than normal (granular) fertilizer, so it’s great when crops need quick help — like during flowering or fruiting.

You can do both!

• For drip irrigation, mix it in the tank — it goes straight to the roots.

• For foliar spray, spray it on the leaves — the plant takes it in quickly.

Just follow the mixing instructions on the pack.

Usually every 7 to 14 days during growing season.
If the plant looks weak or is flowering or fruiting, you can feed more often. Don’t overdo it — too much can burn the plant.

Yes, many farmers do. But always test by mixing a small amount first in a bottle or jar to make sure it doesn’t clump or react. And spray soon after mixing.

No, if you use good-quality water-soluble fertilizer like Maizer, it dissolves fully. Just mix well and clean your tank and filters sometimes.
