Q4 Fertilizer
« on: April 01, 2023, 15:54 »
I've just bought some Q4 fertilizer I was told it was very good for both veg growing and flower growing and as I haven't used Q4 before can anyone give me a bit of info when would you apply Q4 at the seedling stage or larger plants and how often would you recommend feeding the plants including both veg and flower
I have used liquid feed in the past but not this

Q4 fertiliser should be raked into the ground before sowing and planting flowers or vegetables. You can then use it as a top dressing once or twice during the season to help growth.

Hi,
 I haven't used it but i think it's way of using is similar to Growmore (but for different crops). So you'd hoe it into the surface before planting & then sprinkle a bit round the plants as the year goes on.
 
Looking at the N-P-K Growmore is 7-7-7, Q4 is 5.3-7.5-10 . So higher in potassium, meaning good for fruits and flowers.
Edited to add;  I tend to use liquid feed for tomatoes & strawberries because those are in various containers here due to challenging weather!!
