What fertilizer do you guys use for your peperomia’s. I tried using the Arber 3-2-1 and a day later it is drooping I’m so sad I flushed the soil but this is one of my favorites and I want to get the best fertilizer for it! Lmk what any of you guys use?

I use Osmocote’s Slow-Release Fertilizer pellets, but I’ve heard peperomias enjoy calcium-rich fertilizers since they tend to have a calcium deficiency

I’m relatively new and I’m wondering if I can ask you a question? Do you feed all of your plants with the same fertilizer or do you have different fertilizers for different plants? I have a general 4-4-4 right now but I’m wondering if that’s enough. I don’t have anything exotic, just your stand beginner varieties: peperomia, monstera, pothos, jade, calathea, rubber tree, alacasia. Thanks for your help!

I use Osmocote on all of my plants. You can look into specifics as to what type of fertilizers help which plants the most, but I like the convenience of having a fertilizer I don’t have to perfectly time every time, and that I can use on all of my plants.
