Miracle-Gro Water Soluble Miracid Acid-Loving Plant Food

This fertilizer, which was improved for solubility many years back, does the job decently. Easy to mix for a plain watering can, or you can use the auto applicator. I found that the auto applicator does not hold the mix consistently throughout the entire batch. It will continue to become more diluted as you use up the material.

Nor do I have camellias or rhododendrons. What I DON’T LIKE is the name. This is a fertilizer for acid-loving plants. MOST plants are acid-loving, and they all react to it the same way. They grow, produce lowers, and become the beautiful things we love to look at. The name alone may stop people from buying it unless they possess a modicum of plant knowledge. My bougainvillea, hydrangeas, hibiscus, and caladiiums like this food, too! Florida soil (basically sand) is alkaline, and anything grown next to concrete is also alkaline, so a boost in an acid plant food is need to maintain health. Building an acid-lovers soil is your first line of defense, and then keeping it that way will enhance your efforts. Always research your pretty plant’s requirements, provide them, and your thumb will definitely turn green! Recommended!

I just recently got a white Gardenia plant, by the grace of God alone. I said, if my God got me this plant, it’s because He is able to help me care for it. He’ll supply me the right tools and aids. Shortly after receiving it, the leaves started turning yellow! I googled, and apparently, Gardenias are infamous for iron deficiency. So, I googled what could be done and they said fixing the acid levels and pH stuff would help. Before my plant pH level and acidity level thermometer could arrive, thank God my plant food arrived when it did. I wasn’t even able to see how much I should add, because the thermometer for my plant didn’t arrive yet. So I just added a little of the solution because she doesn’t like wet feet, and I prayed about it and asked for guidance and help. Thank you Lord that it worked so quickly! I recommend this product, and it hasn’t even been a full day yet. I will update this review if I remember to. But seriously, you can see such a difference within no more than 4 hours. And I didn’t even give a whole lot! I hope the yellowing stops continuing 😊Only thing I have to note :You can only have 1 gallon of water be the minimum amount of water for this solution. My plant does not require one gallon of water! So, I stored the rest of the solution that has the water and powder, for later. But I do wish I could have a smaller measurement. For instance, 1 cup of water for __ amount of teaspoons. I could probably do the conversion off google but I didn’t wanna risk it. So, if you want to use this product, make sure you have a ton of water loving plants or a bunch of preservation jars at hand.

It is working to make my azalea look better. The only downside is you have to do it every week or two. It's a lot to remember and do it that much.

I've used Miracle-Gro on my flowers and vegetables for years, and it has helped my plants grow bigger and stronger. I purchased this product for my hydrangeas because this winter was particularly hard here in the Midwest, with Arctic temps and wind chills 30-35 below zero. The harsh weather nearly killed my big leaf hydrangeas, I had to cut them all the way back to the ground this early spring, and then I added some of this product into water as directed. And now with having warmer weather moving in, the hydrangeas are sprouting up, and they are about 5 inches in height. I believe the Miracle-Gro will kick in shortly, and they will really take off! Hopefully, using this product helps them to bloom this summer. I’ve used it before on many different types of flowers, including hydrangeas, and it has always helped them have big bright beautiful blooms. Overall, I highly recommend this product and I give it a perfect 5 stars. I hope this review helps others.

I do not have a green thumb. I bought my house 8 years ago and it has a beautiful perennial garden. Slowly, I have ruined many of them. My hydrangeas would still have lots of green leaves but no more beautiful flowers. My sister suggested this stuff and the beautiful flowers came back with even more color than before!

LIkely the best fertilizer, thank you.
