Should Osmocote be used with water?

It’s important that Osmocote be applied dry. Do not pre-mix the product with water before applying. Further, it’s not necessary to water plants immediately after Osmocote is applied in order to reduce the potential for chemical “burn.” Osmocote has a resin coating that encapsulates the nutrients. Direct contact by the product with plants is not a problem.
