Thank you so much for this video. I have been plant dadding for two years now and this was the best video that explained plant food/fertilizing.
Hi C Davis,
Thank you for your kind words and for watching!
May your plants grow happy and healthy! 🌱
Great video. I was wondering how and when to start feeding my plants; thank you ... And the butterfly sleeves on your sweater ... Nice touch ... Just in time for spring ... Have a great evening Juliette ... See you in the next one ... ✌️🙂
Let's the feeding time begin 😀Thank you, Pierre!
Geez, I fell in love with your accent. Thanks for the info, I am new with plants and I can use all the help I can get.

Thanks new to planting

-We do not ship Lechuza planters but you can order these awesome self-watering pots here: amzn.to/3zLDWDH
Green Cheers!
Hi, I really enjoy your videos. How do you fertilize using the Leucheza pots? In this video you watered the pon/soil and I thought after the 3-4 month period you only add water thru the port. Thanks
Hi Connie,
If you are already using the self-watering method/reservoir, you may simply mix the fertilizer wit water and add the mixture into the reservoir. Thank you for watching 🌱
Thank you for the video! I am new to plant fertilizer and just opened my bottle of Plant Food. Is it supposed to smell really bad or is it a bad batch?
Hi!
Thank you for watching 🌱
Some fertilizers do have a strong smell.
Are you using Good Dirt Plant Food?
@@Mycityplants thank you for the reply! Yes, I’m using Good Dirt brand. It was leaking a bit when I received it also. Thanks again!
Hi Juliet!! Thank you for your videos!!
Can I use this fertilizer after 6 to 8 months in lechuza pon ? (My substrate is composed of lechuza pon only) Should I put the fertilizer at every max fill of my lechuza planters during the growing season or should I skip for example every 2 max fills of the planters? And then as we see in your video when you water the plant with your fertilizer, you do not fill the tank. Is there a reason?Thank you so much !!
Hi! You may use Plant food to feed your plants. Good Dirt is my fave mycityplants.shop/products/all-purpose-fertilizer
You can add this plant food to the reservoir each time it gets re-filled.
*** 1 teaspoon per gallon of water.
If using fertilizer, I would use it once every 2nd watering.
In this video I was showing how to do it in general, not just for self-watering planters.
So, if you water your plant via the reservoir, add plant food/fertilizer ti the reservoir or dilute it in water and then pour the mixture into the reservoir.
Green Cheers!
@@Mycityplants Ok thank you so much !!!
I think it was called grow dirt but couldn't find it on Amazon so could you please let me know where you bought yours please
Hi Beverley,

May your plants grow happy and healthy!
Thank you for watching 🌱
Is it safe to water my indoor plants in the winter with fish emulsion ( Dirty aquarium water) ?
Hi Jeannie,
Thank you for watching! 🌱
I have never used fish emulsion. I think this article will be helpful: housefur.com/fish-emulsion-best-fertilizer/
I just bought some of this, but I'm scared to try it because the last time I tried a plant food (diff brand) it almost killed my plants.
Hi! Good Dirt Plant Food will not kill/burn your plants. It can even be used all year round.
But I still would recommend to give your plants a break from feeding, even when sung this product.
May your plants grow happy and healthy! 🌱
Hi, i am waiting for a tiny generated vein from the stem of a cut peace lily stalk then been put into water vase while its leaf looking great, but still waiting the vein to transform into a root, should i keep dreaming? Its been 2 months now😂
Hi Bassem,
Unfortunately, Peace lilies can not be propagated via leaf or stem cuttings, but they can easily be propagated by division :)
Green Cheers 🌱
@@Mycityplants thanks, I threw it away
Can you please clarify. You said only to fertilize non dormant plants in the winter, but yet in your wrap up at the end you said you fertilize every other watering.
Fertilize non dormant plants in the winter every other watering. Fall/Winter weather does not allow the plant to photosynthesize as much as in Spring/Summer weather, therefore you fertilize less because it won’t be able to process the fertilizer at the same speed as it would in Summer/Spring
Hi and thank you for watching! 🌱 @theonerealfriend
I fertilize all plants in Spring/Summer (each time I water).
During winter, I only feed plants (every other watering or less) that are showing me some signs of stress and having a hard time going through this time of the year.
NYC winters are no fun :)
I hope this answers your question.
Green Cheers!
Hi @Naeou,
Thank you so much for your input. It is great to see people helping each other.
Green Cheers! 🌱
I noticed you have the self watering pot but you didn't filled it up until the red line in the tube 🤔
Hi Laly,
I was just demonstrated how to apply fertilizer to potted plants .
Not everyone have plants potted in Lechuza self-watering pots. If your plant is in Lechuza pot, then yes, you should add as much water as needed to fill up the reservoir.
Thank you for watching 🌱
@@Mycityplants Thank you I will do that. 🙂
You are welcome! May your plants grow happy and healthy! 🌱
Can you please tell me the name of the plant food you use. I didn't catch the name
Hi again:)
You can always find all the tools, materials, etc. info in the video descriptions.
Here is the link to my favorite plant food mycityplants.com/products/all-purpose-fertilizer
Green Cheers ! 🌱
I found your site but that’s a US price of $24.99 right
Yes!
As I understand it, plant food and plant fertilizer are two different things. So, you feed the plants, but do you fertilize them as well during the spring and summer?
Hi! Do not use both. You might over feed your plants!
Green Cheers!
I disagree with 99% of the info you give
Hi Karen,
Its ok to disagree. I am just sharing what has been and still is working for me and my plants.
Would be great to learn about your plant care. Please share! 🌱
