Fertilizer – Drought
Q: I usually fertilize all my shrubs in April and October using 10-10-10 fertilizer. Because of the drought, I’m concerned that this may not be a good idea for this season. Can you give me some guidance?
A: Your instincts are correct. Fall fertilizer is of questionable benefit so I’d leave the shrubs alone until good rains are in the forecast in spring.
