What's the best fertilizer for flowers and for Ivy?

And also I need to know what the best kind of bug spray there is for my flowers. My petunias are half eaten and covered in holes... I think they're those pincher bugs, my zinnias leafs are covered in tiny holes to the point where the whole leaf is translucent. My grandpa fertilizes his flowers twice a week, even though it's only suppose to be once a week, and they're fabulous. I don't know what he uses though. Does anyone know any little tricks like that, as well?

the best fertilizer would be a scoop or two from a compost pile. It works great and it's all organic. As far as bugs, take a spray bottle and put some regular dish soap in it and fill it with water ... misting the plants will keep the bugs away.
Reply:" Miracle Grow" plant food is the best I've ever used. Just follow the package instructions for great results. I would contact a local florist to find out what bug repellant to use on your particular plants.

  1. best fertilizer for plants are mix fertilizers.I rather the organic mix.Since these fertilizer protects the plant from cold weather and diseases that are contained in the soil.It also repair the soil,so that plants aren't absorbing all the elements in the soil. without these types of fertilizer,the soil wouldn't have enough chemicals to support the plants.
