Miracle-GroGarden Feeder with Water Soluble All Purpose Plant Food, Hose-end Feeder for Outdoor Plants, 1 lb.

VERY EASY TO USE, 3 DIFFERENT SETTINGS, MUCH IMPROVED OVER MY OLD ONE THAT IS 10 YEARS OLD, EASY TO HOLD, EASY TO TURN ON AND OFF, NICELYMADE, SHOULD LAST MANY YEARS.

The media could not be loaded. I grow most of our veggies and herbs in my 2-room basement garden and have been doing this for about 8 years. Previous to getting these feeders, I could water my plants with a garden hose and wand using a garden type faucet I have in the basement. Although this method made watering much faster, I wasn't able to fertilize my plants unless I used a watering can to mix the plant food with the water. Since most of the plants in my large plant room are in 10-15 gallon pots, this meant hauling a 2-gallon watering from the sink faucet to the plants multiple times which generally took 3-4 hours to complete the task.I bought 2 of these feeders to have one for feeding greens and herbs and one for fruiting plants such as tomatoes, peppers, and squash. and can now use my hose to water and fertilize my plants. So far, the Miracle Grow plant foods have been working well. I have been using the fertilizer for acid loving plants to lower soil PH when needed, the general fertilizer for greens, and the tomato fertilizer for tomatoes, peppers, and squash. I love the trigger which makes it so easy to move from pot to pot and also appreciate the adjustments for spray patterns.Although I didn't have a problem with water leaking when using these feeders, I have had the problem with the watering wands I use. Adding another washer has always solved this problem. These feeders have made my watering job so much easier, and I can now water and feed at the same time without hauling a 2-gallon watering can multiple times. This allows me time for more fun stuff like harvesting and potting new plants. The only problem I have with this feeder is that is made to mix only the Miracle-Gro fertilizer. Admittedly, I like some of the other fertilizers I use better than Miracle-Gro as it does not contain the nutrients necessary for some of the fruiting vegetables, like tomatoes.I have added a video of my large plant room to give you an idea of what I am growing. I also have another room with shelves that is used for starting new plants and for growing smaller plants.I hope this review was helpful for you.

(This leaks from the hose attachment. Got soaked watering my plants. I meant really soaked not just a dribble. I will be sending it back for a replacement that I hope is better.)My fault that it leaked so bad. Had a quick connect on it and it did not seal to the washer. Doubled up on washers and it works great.

Easy to set up with the hose. The feeder does help the plants grow better, it appears. Best to buy the refill feeds in bulk. Not clear how long each bottle last. Have used for 2 weeks so far and still seems like a lot left in the bottle. However, the bottle does drip a bit after using if not placed upright afterwards.

My plants are absolutely in love with this, it’s like a drug that they truly enjoy. The best time to actually fertilize is between the months of February through April depending on your location, of course, and make sure that you use caution when fertilizing your plants do so once every 14 days. Make sure that you give a very even dosage on all of your plants, they will enjoy it, and do this before the summertime so you don’t burn the plants, or kill them.Every year when I use this product twice a month, during these months, my plants tend to grow a few inches that year. I have some shrubs that I’m trying to grow, and they’ve grown very quickly because of this.

Works great no complaints

Bought this Garden Feeder to help feed my plants. It seems though that this current model doesn't feed very well. Water seems to bypass the food reservoir (there's a little tiny hole that attempts to fill up the food reservoir but it's a tiny hole and doesn't even really fill up with water after 3 minutes of usage)At this point, it's basically just a green with yellow trim hose nozzle. I have reached out to Customer Service but haven't heard back yetUpdate: From Customer support:"The Miracle-Gro Garden Feeder takes approximately 4 minutes to fill. While the jar is filling, plain water is spraying from the shroud. Once the jar is full, it will begin dispensing plant food. The solution spraying from the shroud will still appear clear even though it is siphoning the diluted plant food. The sprayer will dispense 4 gallons per minute, or 1 gallon every 15 seconds. One jarful (one 1-1/4 pound refill) will be dispensed in approximately 12 minutes. The water will still be blue, but the food will be gone. When you see only a very small amount of granules in the bottom of the feeder (after approximately 12 minutes), it is time to turn it upside down and clean it out. To empty the jar and clean the sprayer, turn the feeder upside down and loosen the jar 1 turn. This releases the pressure and allows the jar to be emptied and cleans out the sprayer at the same time."So they expect you to run water for 4 minutes prior to it working. Seems like a waste of water to me. I ended up just premixing it prior and it "seems" to be working better
