Tough to use
on November 1, 2022
Posted by: Happy Feet
Gender:Female
Expertise:Intermediate
I just bought This product because it was the only one I saw that looked like it would be good for Christas cacti.. It is really hard to push the pump down, and the amount that comes out is inconsistent. The directions are totally unsatisfactory. It doesn’t tell how often to feed the plants. It is also a lot of plastic for the purpose. I won’t buy it again.
Cons: Difficult to use, Messy
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great! Meets my needs!

Gender:Female
Expertise:Beginner
I am a repeat buyer of this product. I use it for practically anything that requires a well draining soil. The only thing I would recommend is that an indoor/outdoor use indication be put on the bag for those who do not know.
Anyone who says this product is not well-draining is probably overwatering their plants!
Pros: Easy to Use, Value, Effective
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Pump for Succulent Plant Food
on September 16, 2020
Posted by: Suzanne
from Gulfport, MS
Expertise:Intermediate
The pump on the latest succulent plant food is horrible. I knocked it over by accident and half of it spilled out. It seems very expensive when there is about half of it missing.
Cons: Didn't work as expected, Messy
Pros: Easy to Use, Effective
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Go back to the drops
on June 20, 2015

from California
Gender:Female
Expertise:Expert
I hate this stuff. Impossible to judge how much to use in a gallon of water. I have over 100 potted succulents. How long do you think 2-5 pumps would last? Not to mention you'd probably end up with carpal tunnel. And I'm sure it features less product than the drops, so Miracle Gro can double the profit.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Have/had several succulent plants for a couple years. Used this product on a few of them per instructions. They are dehydrated and burnt. Should of just watered them instead of using Miracle Gro Succulent Food. Would not recommend!
Cons: Didn't work as expected
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
