Miracle-Gro 17684 All Purpose Continuous Release Plant Food 1 kg, Green, Brown

E xcellent product all plants respond and grow on well

Good stuff, use it often

Expensive but produces the desired result not a concentrated fertilizer however so heavy use is needed.

I always use this. It does what it says on the tin.

Easy to use and does a good job gives my pots a good start and keeps them going through the flowering period

MiracleGro is one of the best plant fertilisers available. Unlike the liquid variety that needs to be measured and added to a certain amount of water, this takes up rather less space, is lighter to handle and much easier to dispense. The bottle has two dispensing options; a wide 'spout' that can discharge large quantities or a smaller sprinkler area where you can shake out as little or as much as your plants will need. These options make it just as easy to use with potted plants, hanging baskets, borders, raised beds and any other planting area you may have. I had not actually seen this version of MiracleGro locally, but only the liquid form and then in fairly large quantities. With a small garden plus a few potted plants, litres of concentrate is far more than I would need to use.

About 2 years ago I decided to do an experiment with Miracle-Gro, these companies always claim they make plants so much bigger so I gave it a test. I had 2 plants of equal size next to each other 1 I used Miracle Gro the other I didn't and after a summers worth of growth the one with the plant food really looked a lot healthier and was almost twice as bushy. I wish I still had a picture to show. I really like the continuous release balls as they are so much easier than measuring out and feeding your plants manually, I just shake a few of these round at the start of the growing season and don't worry about feeding them for the rest of the year. You've got to be careful on the plants you use them on though, the likes of peppers and chili's really don't like too much food and will start to go a bit rotten after a while if you use these on them. I've given this four stars because they've still not fixed the damp problem, no matter how tightly I shut the lid there always seems to get a bit of damp in which just makes the balls clump up after a while and not want to come out. Happy Growing!

Bit late discovering this! I mean, why would you use anything else when you only need to use this once a season? I’m on my second tub now. I have a couple of clematis in the garden in pots that weren’t doing much. I chucked a bit of this in and they raced away. Seriously good. Just wanted to update my review. This clematis is about five years old. I did buy it very small in Aldi or somewhere and had been slowly growing it on. It has been in the same pot for two years and did flower, but the most I got was half a dozen blooms and it was very weedy. Enter Miracle-Gro! Jeez, look at this thing! It has scampered up the fence and over the back and onto the shed. There are tons of flowers and it has been like this for over a month now. I also received a cutting of a Swiss Cheese Plant from my great nieces Christmas 2023. I chucked a bit in there when I repotted it. I think you can see how much that has grown! Just about to order my third pot!
