TOP 8 best fertilizers for plants: mineral, organic, universal, reviews

Almost every person has encountered gardening in one way or another in their life. Every house has flowers in pots, and there are flower beds and small gardens outside. In order for the plant to take root better in a new place and delight with its dynamic growth, it is necessary to use special fertilizers that provide sufficient nutrition for development. They must be used in accordance with clear instructions and dosage selection. Home decorative flowers require quite frequent fertilizing with fertilizers, while garden and garden flowers require much less frequent feeding, but with larger dosages. In this article we will look at the best fertilizers for plants and take a closer look at their positive and negative aspects of use.

Kinds

All fertilizers are divided into the following types:

  1. Organic. This type is the most natural for the soil, since it is obtained as a result of the vital activity of flora and fauna. These include: manure, peat, compost, humus, sapropel, chicken droppings, various food waste. They are easily absorbed by plants and enhance all the properties of the soil, additionally providing it with carbon dioxide.
  2. Minerals, in turn, are divided into potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus. They help to obtain a quick effect from use and do not cause hassle in storage and transportation. The composition includes most of the mineral salts obtained artificially.
  3. Complex (mineral-organic) have a universal character. Their composition includes: potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and nitrogen. The rest of the space belongs to organic matter. The fertilizer is used for garden, fruit and ornamental plants, as well as seedlings.
  4. Bacterial. Already based on the name you can understand that it consists of bacteria. Their main task is to improve the nutritional system of plants: they absorb nitrogen from the atmosphere and, as a result, improve the condition of crops. These include azotobacterin, phosphorobacterin and rhizotorphin. They are ecological because they do not harm the soil with the chemicals in their composition, but only introduce into it what was in significant quantities.

New Year's holiday is coming soon! We all (or almost all) try to decorate our houses for this holiday, put up and decorate the Christmas tree. In addition to decorating the Christmas tree, I also decorate my favorite Dieffenbachia. She appeared in my house quite a long time ago, I bought her as an adult and brought her to the apartment I bought. This is what she looked like then (which is in a white pot):

Almost ten years have passed, and already the shoots of this palm tree delight me with their appearance. The leaves of Dieffenbachia are large and bright green. The tree itself grows very strong, with powerful trunks. My Dieffenbachia is about 2 meters in height.

And the organic-mineral fertilizer based on vermicompost, Garden of Miracles “Rainbow”, helps me grow my beauty.

The fertilizer is intended for all types of flowers and ornamental plants. It contains forms of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and humic substances available to plants. The packaging volume is small, only 0.25 liters, but such a bottle lasts quite a long time, definitely enough for one year.

This fertilizer is recommended for root and foliar feeding of any flowers, indoor and ornamental plants, and flower seedlings. And also for soaking seeds, tubers and flower bulbs, and rooting cuttings. I add fertilizer to the water with which I water the Dieffenbachia - two caps per liter of water is enough.

Therefore, if you want to give joy to your flowers, but fill them with vital energy, give them additional strength, then I highly recommend using the Garden of Miracles “Rainbow” fertilizer. I will give him an excellent score of five points for his performance!

Good afternoon, friends and everyone who reads my reviews! This is the second review today on a topic that is uncharacteristic for me - the topic of home floriculture. I started getting interested in home floriculture about twenty years ago. At that time, all the “New Russians”, remember this definition, were fond of this activity... So, under the influence of fashion, I also became interested. Our apartment is large, there are many windows, and there is also a bay window, wide window sills... in short, there is plenty of room for flowers. And the most important thing for this business, growing home flowers, is that almost all the windows are located on the north side and only one on the south.

At that time, I really liked growing flowers, as well as caring for them, and it gave me considerable pleasure. There were a lot of flowers and quite different, there were even rare specimens. But, as they say, every good hobby comes to an end, and that’s what happened to me. No, my flowers still live and reproduce safely, but my ardor has disappeared. At one time I wanted to completely get rid of the flowers, but my mother persuaded me to leave at least a little.

About two years ago I again decided to resume my passion for growing flowers: I bought several copies of the beautiful flowers “Cyclamen” and “Azalea” in specialized stores and things went well.

But all flowers have the ability to shed their beautiful color and rest, and then bloom again with beautiful flowers. While I was already here at Otzovik, I learned about special fertilizers for home flowers and decided to buy them for myself to try.

Fertilizer for plants is sold in liquid ready-made form and is in a standard transparent plastic bottle equipped with a protective screw cap (photo):

I bought this plant nutrition product for this purpose. so that my “Azalea” would gain color again and bloom with beautiful, lush flowers. “Azalea” rested with me for some time, and it was cold outside all the time; the flowers did not grow well this year. And I decided to feed them: once every two weeks I fed them, as indicated on the package. But then I decided to increase the dose and water it using Rainbow fertilizer. And my expectations were met (photo):

Even the orchid began to gain color.

There are no special problems with storage.

I bought fertilizer for all types of flowers and plants Garden of Miracles "Rainbow" based on vermicompost in the specialized flower salon "White Lily", the nominal cost of the bottle is only 38 rubles (its volume is 250 milligrams), it lasts for a very long time.

I definitely recommend purchasing!

I have a lot of different flowers planted in my garden, but if they are not fertilized, the flowering is not as abundant and long-lasting. I used a lot of different fertilizers, but settled on this one. I really like that this is a universal fertilizer for all flowering plants. You can spray and do root feeding. After application, a lot of new buds are formed and flowering is much more abundant than without this fertilizer. I really like that it is also suitable for indoor flowers. Now I don’t even know how I managed without it before. I recommend it to everyone. You will not regret

At the beginning of spring, when I noticed the first flowers on my rheo, I bought this fertilizer. The seller recommended it to me. Of course, for greater flowering it was necessary to take something else, but then I did not know all these subtleties regarding the amount of nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, calcium. My flowers really liked the fertilizer. The leaves are growing very well. The money tree grew right before our eyes, like all the others. A lot of new shoots have appeared on the flowers. And the leaves are so green and plump. In general, I recommend it. Although it does not cost as much as Agricola (in powder form, I haven’t tried liquid), it is definitely very useful for plants.

Super product for pennies for 100% flowering and flower growth

Good day. I have been using fertilizers for flowers for a long time, I usually take what comes in fives, attacks, in general, whatever gets into my hand. Previously it was “Ideal”, and more recently “Rainbow”.

And the flowers make her so happy. My flowers are just bubbling.

I was given a violet six months ago. For two months I watered it with water with a rainbow: the flower now looks like a bride’s bouquet, so it blooms for just 1.5 months... pah-pah-pah

I was nursing a fluffy cactus, I don’t know what it’s called, it has grown so much, so huge and soft with a bunch of new babies.

Dracaena completely collapsed. Plus, I’m trying to use this fertilizer and a special lamp to remove the bashful mimosa that I brought from the south, which is generally considered an annual plant in our region, but it lives and struggles with me.

A half-liter package, I charged 40-50 rubles. It lasts a long time, I pour 2 caps per 1.5 liters of water.

Composition per 1 liter: nitrogen 10g, phosphorus 10g, potassium 10g, humic substances 2g. For comparison, in “Ideal” there is 2 times less nitrogen.

The smell, if you sniff the bottle, is unpleasant, but after watering the room does not smell.

I would like to point out that such fertilizers are not suitable for all flowers; the money tree and aloe definitely do not like it: the leaves begin to turn purple. But you have to try it and see how the flower reacts; usually almost everyone likes it.

Advantages:

  • rapid formation of buds and long flowering
  • inexpensive

We have a small apartment with only two rooms and, accordingly, only two windows, my wife loves flowers very much and always uses liquid fertilizer Rainbow, you can’t reach the glass at a distance of about one meter with your hand, the entire window sill is covered with pots of flowers and all the nearby furniture is the same. At first I had a neutral opinion about indoor plants, but about five years ago I found out what Rainbow fertilizer is and what a special soil for plants is, we had the opportunity to live and work in Odessa for a little over a year, construction was construction, and on weekends my wife and I had fun in the mountain garden, there are three large greenhouses full of different kinds of plants and beautiful flowers, that’s where I got sick with houseplants, we collected literature there and slowly began to do everything correctly, the correct composition of the soil, the right fertilizers, and we settled on the “Rainbow” fertilizer .

This fertilizer is suitable for almost all indoor flowers, that is, universal, ficus, Chinese roses (hibiscus), abutilon (popularly indoor maple) have received it especially well; it blooms constantly, diefenbachia and monstera are also happy, and indoor ivy has elastic leaves just like in the picture with stable color. In a word, we made no mistake when choosing Rainbow fertilizer, and although it is very difficult to close the window, we are very pleased with our greenery.

I purchased this fertilizer when I realized that the geraniums had grown out of their flower pots and there was no way to replant them yet, when the orchid stopped growing and when the green leaves of the chamedorea faded. The soil is especially depleted after lush flowering, so I watered the geranium weekly with half the specified dose of the drug, i.e. all spring I watered the flowers with fertilizer-enriched water - the leaves turned green, fluffed up, many buds appeared, the orchid knocked out the buds and finally the green plants went wild, so to speak. When I bought a bottle of this fertilizer for 50 rubles, I did not expect such an effect. Fertilizer also helped the seedlings of tomatoes, peppers and flowers a lot, so within a month from sowing petunia turned into a full-fledged planting material, which after 2 weeks knocked out buds in the ground. Now I fertilize the transplanted irises in the garden with it. And I urge everyone: plants also need food, you can feed them with such inexpensive and accessible means and they will definitely give you the beauty of their leaves and flowers.

I recently got flowers, but they grow slowly, compared to the same flowers that my mother grows. She gave me the Rainbow fertilizer, it is based on vermicompost.

The fertilizer is suitable for all indoor flowers and plants.

It can be used both for watering flowers and other plants, and for soaking seeds. Seedlings sprout well when using this fertilizer.

My mother’s flowers are covered with flowers, but mine are just gaining color since I’ve been using fertilizer for the first month.

To water indoor plants, I use one capful of liquid per half liter of water, this is enough to feed my six flowers.

I use fertilizer once or twice a month.

Fertilizer "Rainbow" is a high-quality mineral product.

TOP 8 best fertilizers for plants

After careful selection and user surveys, the following tools were included in the ranking of the best:

  • Orton “Universal Ovary”;
  • Fertika LUX.
  • Uniflor.
  • Magic watering can.
  • GUMI-OMI.
  • Hello.
  • BioMaster.
  • Florist micro.

Orton “Universal Ovary”

Natural remedy for. Stimulates fruit formation - ovary and fruit growth of vegetable and fruit crops. It works effectively even under non-optimal climatic conditions and the absence of pollinating insects. Accelerates and increases fruiting by up to 50%, significantly improves the quality and taste of fruits. It also increases plant resistance to adverse weather conditions, diseases and pests.

For almost 30 years (since the TV show “Our Garden”) it has been producing a whole line of natural products WITHOUT the use of “harsh chemistry”. The action of Orton preparations is based on natural factors: increasing the concentration of phytohormones, feeding with microelements, and seeding with beneficial flora.

The action of the drug “Universal Ovary” is based on a combination of natural phytohormones that are found in plants and regulate their growth and development. The lack of sun and heat in most regions of Russia leads to a deficiency of growth phytohormones in tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and other crops. “Ovary” compensates for this deficiency and allows plants to fully reveal their natural potential, increasing their productivity by 1.5 times - as if the plants were growing in their natural hot climate.

Vitamins for plants

They are needed for health and proper development not only by people, but also by plants. Using the vitamins in your medicine cabinet, you can make nutritious food for your plants. Vitamins from group B, as well as vitamin C, or simply ascorbic acid, are well suited for these purposes. Just don’t get carried away with watering with “vitamin” water; plants, like people, can develop hypervitaminosis. One watering every 3 weeks will be enough.

Vitamins from group B have a good effect on the plant , speed up metabolism, strengthen roots, and under their influence plants grow and develop better.

Vitamin B1 helps plants survive stressful conditions and also stimulates their growth. For feeding, prepare a solution of 1 ml of vitamin diluted in a liter of water.

Vitamin B3 (or nicotinic acid) is excellent for resuscitating plants. The solution is prepared in the proportion of 1 ml of vitamin per liter of water. You can enhance it with other vitamins, for example B1 or B6.

Vitamin B6 stimulates the immune system of plants and will help save weakened and diseased flowers.

The solution is prepared in the same proportion as vitamin B3.

Vitamin B12 is involved in the production of chlorophyll, activates the growth and metabolism of plants. Use 1 ml of vitamin per liter of water.

Vitamin C (or ascorbic acid) helps plants resist various diseases, just like it does in humans. Vitamin C will also help in the fight against chlorosis.

Ascorbic acid regulates important metabolic processes, affects water metabolism and can even control plant growth. For vitamin watering, dissolve an ascorbic acid tablet in a liter of water.

To feed indoor plants, you can use not only vitamins from the pharmacy, but also other common substances that are used in everyday life for fever and cuts. Even ammonia, which is used for fainting, to bring a person to his senses so that he can go to work caring for house plants .

How to apply fertilizers correctly

There are generally accepted rules that determine the time and method of adding nutrients:

  1. Fertilizers are added to the soil before seedlings are planted. After some time, fertilizers have time to decompose in the soil and become easily accessible to the roots. This is done in early spring or autumn, mainly after harvesting. Potassium and phosphorus additives are added using the described method, since they are capable of remaining in the soil for a long time until the onset of the growing season.
  2. Pre-sowing. Complex mixtures are applied to rows, holes and trenches. Nitrogen quickly evaporates, so it must be added before planting or at the time of sowing. This way, the greatest amount of nutrients will be preserved.
  3. Feeding. They should be done during the growing season and fruit ripening. They are additive type mixtures necessary for nutrition correction. Their concentration, as a rule, is much lower than that of pre-sowing ones. Fertilizing is done in two ways, regardless of conditions: root and foliar.

Fertilizer FERTIKA Flower

Combined granular fertilizer is recommended for annual and perennial flowers and bulbous plants. This product is one of the best, as it contains all the necessary macro- and micronutrient complexes. Using this product you can increase the flowering period of plants.

The fertilizer does not create an excessive concentration of salt and a stressful situation for young plants. Granules dissolve slowly in the soil, allowing plants to receive adequate nutrition for a long time, and also promote intensive and long-lasting flowering.

Tips for choosing

Tips from some buyers and experts will help you choose the right product in the store and make the right choice in favor of a specific product:

  1. Pay attention to the fertilizer release form. Most often it comes in the form of a solution or powder, which then needs to be diluted or diluted in water.
  2. Before purchasing, study the composition. The effect of fertilizer on the plant directly depends on it. Some, in addition to everything, also provide protection from pests, which is quite a big plus.
  3. Find out where you can use it. Some are intended only for garden crops, others for house plants, and others are universal.
  4. Buy a large volume of the bottle at once so that it is enough for repeated further processing.

Universal fertilizer-sticks Agricola

Agricola sticks are a unique long-lasting product that comes in a practical and convenient form. The sticks contain forms of nutrients that are slowly soluble in water, which allows plants to gradually, over two months, absorb nutrients without the risk of overdose. The sticks contain a full range of macroelements (including magnesium) and microelements. Agricola sticks not only feed flowers, but also counteract the development of root rot.

This form of fertilizer is very convenient for beginners and forgetful amateur gardeners. You do not have to prepare solutions according to the instructions, you just need to know how many sticks are needed for a particular plant (one pot, depending on its size, requires from 1 to 8 sticks).

Universal Agricola sticks are very convenient for feeding indoor, balcony, garden flowers and alpine slides.

Agricola sticks for decorative foliage plants enhance the growth of crops and give bright color to the leaves.

Agricola sticks for flowering plants are necessary to increase the number of buds and flowers and the duration of flowering.
