Hello Palm PHAM!

 

So I've heard and read that milagronite is vital to keeping palms nice and green throughout the season.

 

This is wild!

 

I would love to hear your thoughts, comments, and concerns from all your EXPERTS.

 

Would you recommend a small amount for palsm in 30 to 65 gal. Pots?

 

Please educate me on this topic matter

 

Love.

No it is processed sewer sludge.  Get a balanced palm fertilizer.  For pots Osmocote plus outdoor/indoor is my top recommendation.  And you have 30 and 65 gallon pots?????

Yes, I am starting a garden center and have been supplying 15gal/30gal/65gal

 

I had some subjected palms to test out this milo granite, and the Queen Palms I tried two weeks ago are showing signs of very green recovery!

 

Strange!

 

I am up in CT.

 

Thanks for the prompt reply

This is actually a great lawn fertilizer, but is not good for palms.  It’s a slow release nitrogen that you can’t over apply to grass.  As a N fertilizer, it’s not got the other nutrients palms need and will cause problems long term.  It’s also said to trigger manganese deficiency in palms.
