When do you apply fertilizer to your palm trees after planting?
A lot of farmers make the mistake of applying fertilizer to their palms immediately after planting and then start lamenting when they don’t see the effect of the fertilizer applied.
The hidden truth is that A newly transplanted palm seedling needs 3 to 4 weeks just to recover from transplanting shock and develop new roots. If you apply fertilizer too early, the roots can't take it up. The fertilizer either washes away with rain or burns the young roots. That's wasted money.
The right time to apply fertilizer to your planted palms is 3 months after planting and the right fertilizer to use is NPK 20:10:10.
This is not the end of fertilizer application.
