Not to worry, it's all very easy. The most important thing is to keep it watered. Each morning, stick your finger down into the soil a couple of inches. If it feels dry, you need to water.





Since your flowers are already growing, buy liquid fertilizer and read the directions on the container. You can find many brands at a garden center or nursery. Ask a clerk to help you. But wait until your plants are about six to eight inches tall.





By the way, directions should have come with this mix. Look on the container if you still have it.





Happy gardening.
Reply:i use the pellets which are time release for all purpose fertilizer. i think its made by peterson's. you can use it now. then you can leave it alone the rest of the season. if you use the powder kind make sure you read the instructions carefully. too much can kill your plants/flowers. send me some flowers. lol. good luck.
Reply:If they are just starting to come up, do not feed them yet. You could burn them up. Just keep them damp, watch for snails and slugs (they love young tender growth). Also don't pull out the weeds yet as the flowers might come with them. Wait until the flowers are better established. When they have gotten larger, say about 6 or 8 inches tall give them a light fertilizer. I prefer Miracle Grow. Be sure and buy the one with the middle number (phosphorous) the larger of the three numbers. This will induce flowers and not just green growth. I would fertlize them about every two weeks. Hope you have many beautiful flowers from all your effort. Happy gardening!
