It keeps raining and I'm trying to add fox farm nutes but the soil is never dry enough to add them .

Question .

Is if safe to use nutes and use maybe a quarter gallon and instead of using full strength of what I normally put in gallon use quarter strength ?

Sorry I'm pretty sure it self explanatory but just double checking with the experts thanks !

You want the soil wet before adding fertilizer. It slows the absorption rate compared to dry soil and a thirsty plant.

The dosage is safe in the 1/4 gallon as long as it's raining enough to dilute the mix. I don't know why you'd want to mix that way. It's raining, set a bucket out and mix it to the full amount of water.

Sorry my plant soil is already wet and soaked since it rains a lot lately .

What I'm asking is it ok to add nutes in reduced water to the plant since I don't want to over water them because it already has water from the rain .

Or can I simply just not water and simply just measure the dosage out and dump it on the soil directly ?
