Hi Guys!
I have searched the forum and not found the dosage for Osmocote Plus for potted trees.
The package says 1 scoop (3 tbs) per 2 GAL pot, OR for 4 sq ft.
My 25 gallon pots are about 2x2 ft.
So, do I give them 12 scoops (calculated for pot size), or 1 scoop (calculated for sg ft), or something in between?
This is a HUGE difference!!
I called Osmocote, and they said to give each pot 12 1/2 scoops.
But all are light feeders, I believe (several annonas, cinnamon, cacao, lychee, jabo, etc...), and I don't want to kill them. Unlike soluble fertilizer, I can't just flush this stuff out.
Anyway, I gave the pots 4 scoops each, for now, figuring I can add more, but can't take it away.
So, an accurate dosage, that has worked well for quite a while for someone, for potted trees, would be a BIG help!!!!
Thanks!
Carolyn
