Can any Dr. Earth users tell me how how long it takes for their dry fertilizer to break down and become plant available? I'm in FFOF and will be top dressing with Dr. Earth.

Forgot to add - Breaks down completely* Nutrients become available from the first week (usually from first irrigation).

From what I know about "Dr. Earth" dry fertilizer is that top dressing with proper irrigation will cause the fertilizer to break down in about 3-4 weeks Use 2 Tablespoons for every gallon of medium, and try looking into compost tea to use together with the dry amendments! Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)

After the first watering it will start to become available. Just make sure to water heavy that first time! We use Happy Frog Fruit and Flower which is about the same thing! 🤘😤
