House Plants – Using Fertilizer
Q: Is it OK to use 10-10-10 fertilizer on house plants?
A: I suppose you could but it would have to be a tiny amount each time. This quickly-soluble fertilizer would have a high chance of burning plant roots confined in a pot. You’d be better off using a commercial houseplant fertilizer.
