Spring is an excellent time to apply organic plant foods or other nutrient-rich products to flowers, shrubs, fruit trees and lawns. Plant foods applied now usually have spring rains to help carry them into the soil. The gentle rise in temperature helps organic processes to convert the nutrients into simpler forms the plant can use.
Organic fertilizers breakdown slowly and deliver nutrients to the plant at a steady rate, as the plant needs it, producing healthy growth that is often more disease and insect resistant along with less water-needy.
