Can’t believe I’ve been doing this wrong this entire time

For those who prefer a DIY approach, you can create a homemade liquid fertilizer using household ingredients. Combine 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt, 1 tablespoon of baking soda, and 1 tablespoon of ammonia in a gallon of water. This mixture provides essential nutrients and can be used as a foliar spray or soil drench every 4-6 weeks.

To apply liquid fertilizer, first ensure the soil is moist to prevent root burn. Use a watering can or garden sprayer to evenly distribute the fertilizer around the base of the plant, avoiding direct contact with the leaves. Apply in the early morning or late afternoon to minimize evaporation and allow the plant to absorb the nutrients effectively.
