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?
Can I use it on seedlings?
This is my first month using trifecta + and it is amazing on the cabbage I planted for fall. My seedlings look great! Thank you!

I’m growing carrots, chard and cylindrical beets in pots. Your directions say “per plant”. Is that true for pots? If I grow 5-6 carrots in a pot do I use 5-6 T Trifecta? Seems like a lot but maybe not… thanks!
