I am a first-year cut flower farmer. After I have planted out my seedlings, should I be using a higher phosphorus number fertilizer to encourage blossoming or should I use a more straight number fertilizer?

[@SharkeysFloralGreenhouses]

Our Beat Your Neighbor fertilizer is 20-21-19 which gives a well rounded boost, but really makes the flowers perform.

Why is your fertilizer limited to certain states? I would love to purchase a few containers of this!

[@SharkeysFloralGreenhouses]

We would love that too. Since fertilizer is regulated by each state we have to be licensed and registered for each state that we ship to. It is a massive undertaking of paperwork, fees and monthly reports. We are a small family business and not a billion dollar corporation, so for now we only can ship to 19 states. You can always ship to family or a friend in one of those states and they can forward it (many of our customers do that.) You can see those current states here: beatyourneighbor.com/faq/

I’m new to hanging baskets. After fertilizing for the first time, I noticed a few days later that there was some powdery mildew (I believe) starting on the plant, possibly in a place where the fertilized water ran over the plant. Is this just a coincidence or should I be watering more carefully?

[@SharkeysFloralGreenhouses]

That wouldn't be powdery mildew, just from calcium in the water. It's not a concern at all but you can try watering directly to the soil to prevent this.

What kind of fertilizer are you using?

[@SharkeysFloralGreenhouses]

Our Beat Your Neighbor fertilizer of course.

[@SP-ig3vs]

for watering, not dripping through.??? I thought you want the water to drain through the bottom to ensure adequate watering?

[@SharkeysFloralGreenhouses]

You want to water thoroughly, but not running thru. That's too much.
