Gardening - Fertilizer

For gardens, perennial shrubs, perenial and annual flowers we have found that an all purpose 16-16-8 fertilizer has worked great. Apply as directed on the package.

For garden plants we ususally apply fertilizer twice in the season. Once at planting and once about 5 weeks into our growing season. For corn we make an exception: once afterthe plant puts two leafs out (about 2-4 inches tall) and once when the corn tassels start to pop out.
