Can I use fertilizer spikes in the summer?

Our plant food spikes should be applied in the early spring and mid-fall for optimal results. Use Miracle-Gro Shake 'N Feed Flowering Trees and Shrubs Plant Food if your tree is struggling in the summer (apply every 3 months during growing season).

Can fertilizer spikes go bad?

The fresher, the better, but you can store leftover spikes for the next feeding season. Seal in a plastic bag and store in a dry place. Don't toss the label–keep it to reference next time your trees need a nutrition boost.

Can you use plant food spikes on outdoor plants?

If your "outdoor plant" is a tree or shrub, then absolutely! We also recommend our Tree & Shrub Plant Food Spikes for acid-loving plants. Our Shake 'N Feed Granular Plant Foods or Water Soluble Plant Foods are good for smaller container plants.

Plant feeding

Great little kit for feeding my trees and plants. Food gets down to the roots rather than sitting in the soil. Will re: review after I see the/ any results but at this stage everything is looking good.

These work great. Use them every fall on all of my fruit trees. Lots of fruit, and always sweet.

It took a year to see results but worked magnificently

I used these for my arborvitae last year and I was rather unimpressed. However this year they are THRIVING. I think you just fertilize for the next year as you do for other plants. They are so so happy and green and healthy. They are even producing some sort or berry or pinecone which I have never seen arborvitae do!
