The Bottom Line

• Maintain organic material (mulch) on landscapes; this provides a slow release of phosphorus and other needed macro-and micronutrients over time.

• Don't use phosphate fertilizer when transplanting; in most cases a nitrogen fertilizer is adequate.

• If you have a nutrient deficiency that is not relieved by the addition of nitrogen, try a foliar application of likely nutrients and see if the symptoms are alleviated. While this diagnostic application will only have a temporary effect, it will prevent the excessive addition of mineral nutrients to the soil.
