This STUPID Fertilizer Experiment Killed EVERY ONE Of My Plants!
I took popular fertilizers with very different NPK ratios and tested them in a controlled experiment to attempt to answer one of the biggest gardening questions: does NPK ratio matter, and does changing NPK ratios influence plant growth and behavior? The results of this experiment shocked me, and I learned more about fertilizers as a result. This fertilizer experiment took place over 70 days. I will take you through the entire experiment from start to finish, as well as explain what the NPK ratio is, how NPK ratios can affect plant growth and much more.
