Customer Reviews for Miracle-Gro - Shake 'N Feed All Purpose Plant Food - Black
Posted by: Jon

Shake n Feed is great for quick but lasting fertilization. No smelly sacks of manure. Clean and easy to spread around in gardens and vineyards. Flowers and veggies love this stuff. I wish we could get 40–50-pound economic sacks for a refill. Grass responds well also, but my flowers and veggies respond well too. Grape vines are hardy but they like a little power start in the spring. Feeding vines in early spring give them a jumpstart for sweeter grapes in late summer-early fall.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quality, Effective
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As we have had a moderately warmer spring in Michigan, and many of our plants have seen much early growth then in seasons past. I believe that is in part from the feeding of Miracle-Gro Shake 'n Feed, excellent product, will buy again.
Thanks Ken

Takes feeding guesswork out of the picture, beautiful summer blooms

Gender:Female
Expertise:Intermediate
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product couldn't be easier to use, as you just sprinkle it on the soil and water! No more wondering if its time to feed again, or if I am over feeding or under feeding. Its spring and planting is just starting in Reno, so now is the time to have impact for the whole summer! This couldn't be easier to use, water regularly and results are beautiful.
Pros: Easy to Use, Good Directions, Quality, Value, takes feeding guesswork out of the garden.
I would recommend this to a friend!

No Instructions For Heavy Feeders In 20" Pots
on July 3, 2021
Posted by: Glynnes
from Kansas
Gender:Female
Expertise:Intermediate
No application instructions for heavy feeders in pots.
No instructions for 16", 20" or larger pots.
30 day application is,
"UP TO 30 days". So what does that mean?
Thanks to Miracle Gro potting mix and Shake 'n Feed, my tomatoes in big pots are huge with many enormous, spotless not yet ripe tomatoes.
However, I have had to guess the amounts and frequency of fertilizing.
Alexa has helped me guess the amount, my extension office says fertilize once a month.
So I close my eyes, dump a lot on, water like mad, and hope nothing dies.
Please give application instructions for pots
1. amount per inch with a range for heavy feeders.
2. Actual permitted frequency of application.
How often is too often?
No instructions for 16", 20" or larger pots.
