Feeding at transplanting speeds plant recovery
The New York State Agricultural Experiment Station notes that a balanced readily available nutrient solution at transplanting revives plants with reduced roots and helps them withstand shock. For vegetables, mix plant food into the hole, water well, and feed every 4–6 weeks. For flowers, prepare soil, apply 4 pounds per 100 square feet, set plants, then feed at bud appearance.
