Just curious I do not really understand. This site says to fertilize one day and water the next, but liquid fertilizer says to mix with water. What to do?

I would snooze the water action until the plant needs it.

Typically when I check the fertilizer task has been completed it automatically checks that the water has been done too. I use liquid fertilizer. Sometimes the task completed may take a few seconds after completing the fertilizer task.

That is correct,but it is on different days.

Check to make sure the app doesn’t think that you are using stick fertilizer

### Dellee commented on 2025-06-08

I have checked every plant I add to this app.

I've had that happen to me recently too. Seems like maybe a glitch in the system? It doesn't happen with all my plants or every time, but I've definitely had a fertilizer task one day and water the next for the same plant. I just snooze the water task with the wet soil option

Thank you

Make sure that all settings are filled in on the plant’s settings. You also have to select that you are watering with fertilizer. Otherwise, snooze the selection as mentioned.
