The fertilizer is formulated to dissolve and release nutrients gradually, mimicking the way natural rainfall delivers minerals to the soil. This provides a consistent, steady supply of nutrients rather than a sudden, overwhelming spike.
No, this product is specifically formulated to maintain or lower soil pH. Using it on plants that prefer neutral or alkaline soil can lead to nutrient deficiencies and poor plant health.
