A truly spectacular garden starts from the ground up. With Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food, you can give your plants everything they need to thrive, both above and below the soil. We've created a unique formula that not only feeds your plants directly but also nourishes the beneficial microbes that live in your soil. Why is that so important? Because microbes break down natural ingredients into nutrients that support root strength and development, which increases plants' ability to use water efficiently. That means great soil for happy plants that are strong, vibrant, and more productive (vs unfed). This plant food is packed with natural ingredients like kelp, earthworm castings, feather meal, and bone meal. It's easy to use—just shake it on, and one feeding will keep your garden growing for up to 3 months.

For In-Ground Gardens:

• Use 1/2 - 3/4 cup for every 10 sq. ft. of garden space.

For Potted Plants:

• For a 6-inch pot, use 1 1/4 teaspoon
• For an 8-inch pot, use 1 tablespoon
• For a 10-inch pot, use 1 1/2 tablespoons
• For a 12-inch pot, use 3 tablespoons
• For a 14-inch pot, use 5 tablespoons

After you've applied the plant food and watered it in, just continue with your regular watering routine. The best way to know if your plants are thirsty is to stick your finger an inch into the soil—if it's dry, it's time for a drink.

A Little Goes a Long Way: Be sure to follow the application rates. A well-fed plant is a happy plant, but overfeeding can be too much of a good thing.

A Good Habit: We always recommend wearing gardening gloves when you're working in the garden, and it's a good practice to wash your hands when you're done.
