Spring has sprung

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Spring has sprung and the planting has started. We are planting new flowers, shrubs and ornamentals. Nothing works better than Scotts shake and feed. The plants are thriving like never before, earlier growth and more vibrant plants.

Growing is not hard to do

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Miracle-Gro® Shake'n Feed® All Purpose Plant Food Plus Weed Preventer¹ in a regular garden and a bucket garden. Either way fruit just seems to flow off the branches. Very easy to use and if you dig a circle around the plant 6" from the stem an 3" down, then fill with one cup of Miracle-Gro® Shake'n Feed® All Purpose Plant Food Plus Weed Preventer¹ you only have to ensure to water weekly. I wish we had this 50 years ago!

The ease of it all!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the fact that you do not have to dilute this product (as the competitors brand). So much easier to just do a little shake, knowing the plants are getting what they need. Love my healthy, hardy lawn & garden. Thank you Scott's!

Brought tomatoes back to life.

I bought 4 tomato plants at feed store in Early March. Used new inexpensive potting soil in 10 gallon pots. Started fertilizing with water soluble MG but plants were like stunted. They only grew about a foot in a month. Looking poorly I searched as to why. Started using MH shake and feed for tomatoes and they finally took off. Lots of blossoms late July but oh well. Im learning.

Scott's Plant food

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Liked the way it spreads with the cap. Just open and it spreads evenly. Applied two weeks ago and the tomatoes grew one foot! The other citrus plants and palms look healthier. Recommend this . I use it every year.

Great product, highly recommended

We have been using this product for 5 years on the landscaping beds in our yard. It prevents weeds and keeps our plants healthy and strong. I love that I don't have to worry about pulling weeds! I have recommended it to friends and neighbors - I even bought it as a "welcome to the neighborhood gift" to new neighbors who enjoy landscaping.

No Instructions For Heavy Feeders In 20" Pots

No application instructions for heavy feeders in pots. No instructions for 16", 20" or larger pots. 30 day application is, "UP TO 30 days". So what does that mean? Thanks to Miracle Gro potting mix and Shake 'n Feed, my tomatoes in big pots are huge with many enormous, spotless not yet ripe tomatoes. However, I have had to guess the amounts and frequency of fertilizing. Alexa has helped me guess the amount, my extension office says fertilize once a month. So I close my eyes, dump a lot on, water like mad, and hope nothing dies. Please give application instructions for pots 1. amount per inch with a range for heavy feeders. 2. Actual permitted frequency of application. How often is too often?

Big beautiful flowers with help from Miracle-gro!

This Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food is the best product I have ever used in my flower garden. My flowers always grow so big and so beautiful when I use Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food. I purchased this for the first time about 8 years ago I think and I have been using it in my flower garden ever since. I’ve tried using other brands/products because for what ever reason I wasn’t able to get Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food, but the other brands/products have never made my flower garden look as beautiful as Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food does. I like that every three months I go out into my garden and just sprinkle this Miracle-gro Shake ‘n Feed all over the ground around my flower plants, then water like always and it’s that simple. I am very happy that I found this Miracle-gro Shake ‘N Feed Plant Food, I use it every year in my flower garden and I always will. One year instead of a flower garden I decided to plant cantaloupe, carrots, chives, green bell pepper, and regular green onions and I used this Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food on those veggie and fruit plants that year, and wow those plants (especially my cantaloupe) came out so big. I was very impressed with what they did for my flowers, and my fruit/veggie garden. I very highly recommend Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed All Purpose Plant Food to everyone who has a garden of flowers, regular plants, veggies, fruits, herbs, ETC, this Miracle-gro product works the best in my opinion.

This product saves time in feeding your plants.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the dispenser spout on this bottle it make it very easy to use. This product save me a lot of time in feed my plants, I have a large garden and don't always have time to apply plant food as recommended, so I use Shake n' Feed slow release and forget about feed for three months. Great!!!!!! It make my blooms bigger and more vibrant. I must say I have this lily that has not bloomed for the last five years and with an application of Shake n' Feed I got blooms.
