Question…. If I’m supposed to add liquid fertilizer, am i supposed to fully water the plant at the same time?

Yes. It’s assuming you’re adding a liquid concentrate to your water, and then watering as normal.

Most liquid fertilizer you purchase has instructions on diluting with water. You never want to add a full strength liquid to your plant (I even advise to add the “pump” kind to water first, even though instructions say to pump onto the soil).

If you are using slow release tablets/sticks you can change that in your specific plant settings.
