- 1). Decide on what type of liquid fertilizer to use. Organic fertilizer provides nutrients to the soil, which in turn replenishes and promotes root growth. Chemical formulas are absorbed directly into the root system, yet may strip away the soil's humus content.
- 2). Dilute the liquid fertilizer according to the instructions on the label. Be careful measuring, because too much fertilizer can burn plants. When in doubt, use less to reduce the risk of killing your plants.
- 3). Spray the root systems of new plants when they are being planted. Likewise, you can create a basin around the new plant and mix the fertilizer in a watering can to water the new plant.
- 4). Attach the bottle to a gardening hose for spraying large areas. Walk an imaginary grid across your yard. Repeat until you fully cover the yard.
- 5). Divide your yard up into sections when you are doing a large area. Keep to a fertilizing schedule by marking on your calender each time you need to reapply.
