Complete MIgardener Trifecta+ Fertilizer Application Guide

13 comments by Halley -Author at MIGardener

Trifecta+ is an all-purpose soil supercharger that can be used at any time of the growing season. Trifecta+ is rich with fast and slow-release nutrients in addition to beneficial bacteria, fungi, and over 50 trace minerals. The combined power of slow-release nutrients and trace minerals mixed with readily plant available ingredients will give your plants a visible boost right away and will continue to feed long into the season when plants need nutrients most.

In this guide, we will cover the majority of plants you may be needing to fertilize. If there is something not listed then simply look for plants of similar association.

    Do i need to use any other fertilizer along with trifecta plus??


  • Catherine Draeger

    Still learning lots about gardening. How do I apply my trifecta plus? For example if it says 3 Tbs. for peas do put it in the soil before I plant the seed? Sprinkle it on top or mix it in water?
