Feeding your succulents correctly can boost growth and keep them vibrant. Here's a simple guide to fertilizing your favorite plants.

1. When to Fertilize

Succulents benefit most from fertilizing during their growing season, usually spring and summer. Avoid feeding in winter when growth slows down.

2. Types of Fertilizer

Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength. Specialized cactus or succulent fertilizers work great too.

3. How to Apply Fertilizer

Apply fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during growth periods. Water the soil before fertilizing to avoid root burn, and skip feeding if plants look stressed.
