DO ALL FERTILIZERS ARE CREATED AND WORK THE SAME?

The most significant difference in fertilizers is the form of nitrogen present in each fertilizer. Depending on these forms of nitrogen, the fertilizer may contain all the nitrogen only in the form of compounds from which nitrogen will be released slowly over time. This allows you to provide nitrogen to the plant throughout the growing season. Other fertilizers contain some of the nitrogen already available, as well as some of the nitrogen that will be available over time. These forms of slow release of nitrogen also minimize its potential losses.
