I have been very pleased with this Shultz liquid Cactus plant food. I love that it includes micronutrients and low urea. I use it for my succulents which are kept indoors, in individual pots and under grow lights. I can’t credit all the new growth to the plant food as there are multiple factors that have contributed (better watering schedule, plant repot, introduction of grow lights). However, I can definitely tell that the fertilizer has boosted my plants significantly since its introduction. I fertilize at the greater strength of 14 drops per quart of water as directed. In the images I included, I featured a succulent from its side, profile view. You can see the previous growth at the lower and under side of the plant is healthy, but smaller. The newer leaves at the top are bright, larger, longer, thicker and overall more robust. The larger and more robust parts of the plant coincide with the time that I had begun fertilizing. I also imaged some of my rosette succulents which have developed a more dense collection of leaf petals at the center. These succulents have definitely surprised me with their speed of growth, size and density of petals.
Additionally, how one waters is also equally important. You cannot simply toss some fertilized water at your plants. I water my succulents several days after when the soil looks dry and when the pots are light when lifted.
At this point, I place the dry succulent in its pot into a storage container (designated for watering). The sidewalls of the storage container are about as high as the plant pots themselves. I measure out a quart of tepid faucet water and apply 14 drops of Schultz cactus plant food. I mix the water thoroughly then I add the fertilized water into the watering storage container and not into the individual plant pots themselves. I let them soak for however long is needed. Maybe an hour or at least until I see the top layer of soil is damp. Afterwards, I remove the excess water and let the pots drain until no water is dripping, then back they go under the grow lights with drain plates beneath each one.
Overall, I will continue to use this plant food and very happily so.
