Hello:

Just bought that Miracle Gro plastic sprayer that attaches to the end of
the hose.
Comes loaded with their miracle gro fertilizer, also.
No idea what the mix is in the fertilizer.

Have never used this before.

Is it perfectly safe to spray Directly on the flowers and buds of
oramental shrubs, bushes, and small trees ?

e.g., is directly on the flowers of azaelas, etc. safe ?

Any caveats ?

Thanks,
Bob


Supposedly, water droplets on leaves can act like little magnifying glasses
and if it's sunny, burn the leaves. I don't know, but why find out? And, I
don't care WHAT the manufacturer says about foliar feeding. Take the sprayer
back to the store, and instead, buy just a container of the fertilizer and a
nice watering can. Pour the liquid on the soil.
