Fertilizer burn occurs when too much fertilizer or improper application causes symptoms like burnt leaf tips, yellowing edges, or even leaf drop. These signs indicate that the plant is under stress from excess salts or acidified soil. If left untreated, the root system may become damaged and the overall plant health can decline rapidly.
To relieve fertilizer burn, restore soil balance, and help the plant recover its nutrient absorption ability, the following treatment is recommended:
- Mix 20–30g Mr Ganick Terra Star with 20L water: Terrastar is a natural formula designed to neutralize soil acidity and flush out excess salts. It helps rebalance pH levels caused by fertilizer buildup and reduces stress on the roots, giving the plant a chance to “breathe and recover.”
- Use Mr Ganick Compost Base Extra: Rich in beneficial microbes and trace minerals, providing gentle and sustained nutrition. It also helps restore the soil’s micro-ecosystem, improve root vitality, and speed up recovery.
