Foliage Plant & Palm Fertiliser Pro: correct dosage
Enter your water volume or estimate the amount from the size of your plant.
Choose the appropriate application programme.
Enter the water volume in litres. The calculator works out the concentrate needed. View application
Width and height give a rough guide for one root application. Choose m or cm. View application
Crown width and total tree height give a rough guide for one root application. View application
Enter the length and height of the whole hedge section. The result is for that section, not each plant. View application
Hydroponics needs product- and system-specific instructions. No permanent nutrient solution is calculated here. View application
Dosing equipment depends on flow, mixing ratio and device settings. This mode provides guidance rather than a universal dose. View application
* Severe deficiency, heavy feeders, intensified feeding. Increases the indicative application volume, not the concentration.
Please enter valid positive numbers. A comma or full stop can be used as the decimal separator.
Shake well before use. Add the concentrate and mix thoroughly.
5 ml per 1 or 2 litres of water
Choosing 3 or 4 litres changes the approximate amount of prepared solution to apply. The concentration is determined separately by the selected growth stage. Always mix according to the label.
A rough guide for one root application, not an exact water requirement: use your usual watering volume and the substrate’s capacity as a guide. Water the root zone first, then distribute the fertilizer solution evenly. This is not a spray volume for foliar feeding.
The calculated amount is for the entire hedge section entered, not for each individual plant.

Hydroponics
Hydroponics requires product- and crop-specific instructions. The watering dilution above is not a guide for a permanent nutrient solution. This calculator therefore does not calculate hydroponic doses, EC targets or top-up amounts for this fertiliser concentrate. Please discuss the product and your hydroponic system with our advisers.
Contact our advisers →Irrigation system / fertilizer injector
Dosing units, irrigation systems and fertilizer injectors need settings suitable for the product and equipment. Plant size alone cannot determine pump settings, running time or a stock solution.
- Establish the actual water flow and intended running time.
- Check injection ratio, suction and product suitability against the equipment and product instructions.
- Prepare a flow test with clean water according to the equipment instructions. Do not use the normal watering dilution as continuous injection without checking its suitability.
Product information
Application & dilution5 ml per 1 or 2 litres of water
5 ml per 1 litre of water for watering or spraying, every 1–2 weeks during active growth.
Alternatively, 5 ml per 2 litres of water at each watering during active growth. This is a watering programme, not an additional spraying schedule.
- The periodic programme covers roots and foliage. The weaker at-each-watering programme applies to the root area. Do not derive a third foliar dose from general website wording.
Mandatory application instructions
Please follow the product-specific information on the label and in the full description.
The general information sheet describes liquid fertilizer concentrates. Ready-to-use and solid fertilizers have their own application instructions on the product label.

Mixing with other productsMixing, combining or applying separately
Using products as part of the same care routine is different from mixing them in one container. Follow the labels and application instructions of all products involved.
- Tank mixing: Combine products in a watering can or spray tank only when the manufacturer instructions confirm the specific combination and use. Do not mix undiluted concentrates together.
- Separate application: Applying products separately or at different times does not automatically establish compatibility. Check the species, location, plant condition and instructions for both products. No universal waiting period follows from this.
- Complementary products: A recommendation for suitable growing media, accessories or another care product does not mean that it may be mixed with the fertiliser.
- Plant protection products: The crop, target organism, application method and pack instructions must also be suitable. The fertiliser calculator does not calculate plant protection product quantities or confirm compatibility.
The recommendations cover products for different care tasks. Combining them in the same solution requires the instructions for both products to allow that combination. Otherwise, apply the products separately.
PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE
Foliage Plant & Palm Fertiliser Pro
Overview
Foliage Plant & Palm Fertiliser Pro
Foliage Plant & Palm Fertiliser Pro is a liquid concentrate for indoor, balcony and terrace plants. Choose between feeding every 1–2 weeks and a weaker watering solution at each watering during growth. These programmes are alternatives and are not added together.

Application
The appropriate programme
Select the programme and development stage separately. The calculator determines the quantity for your water volume.
Choose the appropriate base programme first. Then apply: standard 100%, young plants 50%, seedlings with leaves 20% of that programme’s dose. The development stage does not replace the programme.
- Every 1–2 weeks
- 5 ml per 1 litre of water for watering or spraying, every 1–2 weeks during active growth.
- At each watering · weaker solution
- Alternatively, 5 ml per 2 litres of water at each watering during active growth. This is a watering programme, not an additional spraying schedule.
The periodic programme covers roots and foliage. The weaker at-each-watering programme applies to the root area. Do not derive a third foliar dose from general website wording.
Nutrition & properties
Measure the original concentrate precisely
Shake before use, measure the calculated quantity and mix into the water. Apply to pre-moistened roots or spray foliage according to the appropriate programme.
Details & background
The liquid NPK solution contains major and trace nutrients. The concentrate quantity depends on the selected programme, development stage and water volume.
Plant care
Water demand still depends on species, position and substrate. The “at each watering” programme does not prescribe extra watering. Pause for dormant plants; reassess demand in low light and reduced growth.

Frequently asked questions
How do programme and development stage differ?
Choose the appropriate base programme first. Then apply: standard 100%, young plants 50%, seedlings with leaves 20% of that programme’s dose. The development stage does not replace the programme.
Which programmes are available?
5 ml per 1 litre of water for watering or spraying, every 1–2 weeks during active growth. Alternatively, 5 ml per 2 litres of water at each watering during active growth. This is a watering programme, not an additional spraying schedule.
Can I combine programmes?
No. Choose exactly one programme and one development stage for the current application. The programmes are not additional feeding applications.
Is foliar application possible?
The periodic programme covers roots and foliage. The weaker at-each-watering programme applies to the root area. Do not derive a third foliar dose from general website wording.
Should I keep feeding in winter?
Water demand still depends on species, position and substrate. The “at each watering” programme does not prescribe extra watering. Pause for dormant plants; reassess demand in low light and reduced growth.
What does the twin pack contain?
Two original bottles of 250 ml each, totalling 500 ml concentrate.
