Newbie! Planta recommends liquid fertilizer but in my new plant mom era that I am in I got pellets before reading about liquid. Is there a major difference? The app won’t even allow me to select pellets, so I’m not sure I’m on the right fertilizing schedule. Input?? Thanks!
Personally I prefer liquid. More control as you can do it with watering — I usually do every other watering with a little fertilizer

All fertilizer is not created equal! AND there are a lot of options. I think it’s personal preference when it comes to which brand. I use liquid. You have more control of the strength you use. Some plants are more sensitive and can get “burned” if dilute with water at the “normal” range. Some people dilute to 1/2 strength and fertilize every time they water (no tracking/remembering needed), some are strictly into organic fertilizer, etc. I’ve used Fox Farm and recently switched to Growth Technology Foliage Focus. Arber is the brand Planta partners with and I do see that in local nurseries/plant shops but I don’t have any experience using it.

Every time I have attempted pellets or sticks I have burned my plants 😭 I’ve always 1/2 dosed or 1/4 dosed and STILL BURNED
