Each product page carries the analysis as printed and the directions Scotts Canada publishes for that item. Feeding by the label: the pump-bottle Indoor Plant Food 1-1-1 is applied at 1 pump for small pots or 2 pumps for larger pots, or mixed at 4 pumps per litre of water, repeated weekly; the Succulent Plant Food 0.5-1-1 uses the same 1-or-2-pump method, then water as usual; the Tropical Plant Food 1-0.5-1 is mixed at 4 pumps per litre of water; the Seed Starting Plant Food 1-0.5-1 starts at the first true leaves, 3 pumps per litre of water every 7 to 14 days when watering; the Orchid Plant Food Mist is sprayed lightly on leaves and roots once a week; the 6-12-6 spikes are replaced every 30 days in spring and summer and every 60 days in fall and winter. Two items here are not plant foods: Leaf Shine is a cleaning spray for hard-surfaced houseplant leaves, and Fresh Cut Flowers is a vase solution used at 3 pumps per 1 L of vase water, repeated every 2-3 days. Miracle-Gro For Christmas Trees is a cut-tree preservative added to the water in the stand. Bringing plants indoors for the Alberta winter?
