What to Feed My Plants?
Like us, plants need nutrients to develop and perform their best. This comes in the way of stronger leaves to handle the elements, prolific blooms, and tastier fruits. We carry many synthetic and organic fertilizers to feed your lawn, garden, and ornamentals well. Below is a breakdown of the fertilizer we carry to feed what kind of plant this month and links to read more about them if you want to. Remember to follow the label for the amount used and how often to apply. Stop fertilizing plants in mid-August, so they prepare to go dormant for winter. If you’re unsure what plants you have, take photos and show us; the team at Job's can help guide you.
