I love my Rattlesnake plant! How often should I fertilize her during the winter?

You can fertilize plants year round as long as they are getting sufficient light and showing signs of new growth. Are you using grow lights or natural light only?

#### Danielle replied on 2023-11-15

Natural light only right now. I do have grow lights though. I just don’t get them out much.

If the plant is only getting natural light going into winter with shorter days, I wouldn’t fertilize more than once per month and at a diluted strength if you do.

My grow lights are on 12hrs a day and I uses diluted fert with every watering. Started doing that about a month ago. I have 10 new leaves sprouting at the same time. Crazy growth spurt right now.
