00:00Eight signs you're using the wrong fertilizer for your vegetables.

00:04Flossom drop or poor flower production.

00:07Excess nitrogen fuels leaves over blooms causing bud drop.

00:10Boost phosphorus and potassium with 51010, bone meal, or rock phosphate.

00:15Leaf burn or fertilizer scorch.

00:18High salt fertilizers dehydrate roots, causing scorched edges and soil crusts.

00:23Flush thoroughly, have strength, and switch to gentler organic feeds.

00:27Wilting or drought-like symptoms.

00:30Excess salts hinder water uptake.

00:33Potassium deficiency weakens regulation.

00:35Flush root zone and use potassium-rich amendments like kelp meal or wood ash.

00:41Excessive foliage growth with few fruits.

00:44Too much nitrogen creates leafy growth, few fruits, and pest magnets.

00:48Shift to lower nitrogen.

00:49Higher phosphorus-potassium blends like 51010.

00:53Root deformities or weak root systems.

00:56Wrong fertilizer.

00:57High in nitrogen, low in phosphorus.

01:00Can cause stunted, misshapen root vegetables, like forked carrots.

01:04Excess phosphorus can block micronutrients, weakening roots.

01:08Use balanced fertilizer and compost to restore healthy soil.

01:12Soil pH shifts and mineral lockout.

01:14High soil pH from alkaline fertilizer.

01:18Blocks nutrients, causing spinach chlorosis.

01:20Many veggies suffer despite regular feeding.

01:24Test pH, then adjust carefully with lime or sulfur and retest.

01:27Unusual pest or disease outbreaks.

01:31Soft nitrogen-fueled growth attracts pests.

01:33Imbalances favor fungi like fusarium.

01:36Use potassium-leaning compost teas.

01:39Manage moisture and plant-resistant cultivars.

01:42Yellow leafing or chlorosis.

01:44Chlorosis stems from nitrogen shortage, micronutrient lockout, or pH shifts.

01:49Add epsom salts, chelated micronutrients, and adjust fertilization to restore green.

01:55Add epsom salts, chelated micronutrient.

01:56Add epsom salts.
