For succulents, I like to use a slow-release fertilizer (Osmocote) because it’s released based on temperature rather than watering, since succulents don’t need water very often

For liquid fertilizer, I use Growth Technology Foliage Focus. I’ve also heard good things about FoxFarm but haven’t tried it
