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.

Where to Use: This all-purpose plant food is great for use in your in-ground gardens, raised beds, and containers, both indoors and out.

Types of Plants: Perfect for all your favorite vegetables, flowers, trees, and shrubs.

When to Use: Apply to your plants any time during the growing season.

How Often to Use: Reapply every 3 months to keep your plants happy and fed.

For In-Ground Gardens:

  1. Shake it On: Shake the plant food evenly over the soil.
  2. Mix it In: Gently work the granules into the top 1-3 inches of soil.
  3. Water and Smile: Give your garden a good watering to start the feeding.

For Potted Plants:

  1. Shake it On: Shake the plant food evenly over the soil surface.
  2. Mix it In: Mix the granules into the soil in your container. If you're working with a new plant, mix plant food in before planting. If you have an established plant, lightly work it in without disturbing your plant's roots.
  3. Water and Enjoy: Water your plants to get the feeding started.

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.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Disappointed Very disappointed in Miracle Gro. I placed an order and when checking the tracking it stated the package was damaged and returned to sender. I have not heard a word from Miracle Gro nor have I received my order. No one has contacted me.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Dossapointed I bought this product from Costco...I thought it said "shake n'Feed". BUT it is not shake and feed. You have to work it in ground 1''-3" per instruction...I thought Shake and feed meant, shake it as you walk along your planter/s and sprinkle it on the plants (WRONG)...I have bunch of bushes that i thought i could save time by using this product...

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Horrible product! I bought this for the first time, spread it on almost half my garden and every plant has either died or is headed to the grave. (About 100 tomatoe plant, 20-30 pepper plants, 10-20 Brussel sprouts etc. Will never purchase agai, truly heart breaking to think I was helping the plants out but in reality killed them.
