Are there differences in plant use between liquid and dry fertilizers?
No. Properly applied, fluid fertilizers are no more or less efficient than dry fertilizers. Most fluid fertilizers contain the same basic ingredients as dry fertilizers. The only difference is that fluid fertilizers are dissolved in water, and dry fertilizers are not. Efficiency of fluid fertilizers is determined by the way they are applied. Proper application methods are discussed below. What are the major types of fluid fertilizers, and what are the differences between them? The major types of fluid fertilizers are suspension fertilizers and solution fertilizers. Solution fertilizers are dissolved completely in water. Suspension fertilizers are partially dissolved in water, but some of the nutrients, particularly potash, are suspended in the water in the same way mud is suspended in water. Suspension agents are used in suspension fertilizers (typically a clay material) to keep the fertilizer material from settling out. You may store true solution fertilizers as long as the temperatur
