Planta is recommending I fertilize my newly purchased and newly transplanted Ruby (Rubber Tree burgundy) . Is this a good recommendation? If not, how long should I wait before fertilizing?

I give my new plant babies a month to adjust to their new home before fertilizing. I also mix pellet fertilizer in the soil when I transplant.

Thanks for sharing, Tellie. I wasn't aware of pellet fertilizer, but I’ll consider it for my next transplant.

Personally, I talk to chatgpt and get input there while also using a water meter. I’m new and it’s been very helpful.
