Fertilizing Plants In Winter: What To Know

Should you fertilize your plants in the winter?

One of the most common questions our customers ask us is if they should continue fertilizing their plants in the winter. While we are big proponents of regularly feeding indoor plants, there are a few things to know when it comes to boosting their nutrient intake in the winter.

When to fertilize indoor plants

The general rule of thumb when it comes to feeding your plants is to only do it when they are actively growing. Most indoor plants are actively growing during the spring and summer, which is why we recommend fertilizing 1-2 times a month between April and September.

Why You Might Still Fertilize in the winter

Even though most plants see the majority of their growth in the spring and summer, some plants will continue to show new growth well into the winter months--especially if you live in an area that sees mild, sunny winters. Feeding your plants when they are actively growing will help support this new growth and result in fuller, more beautiful foliage. 

Which fertilizer should you use?

Our all-natural plant food, Boost Vitaminé, is a mild and effective formula specially designed for indoor greenery. Whether or not your plant is actively growing, you can use it up to one time per month in the winter during your regular watering routine.
