Anyone here have any experience fertilizing through a drip system? I am using a DIG system with their #12 filter/ferilizer applicator on short(50-60 foot) runs with 10 - 12 emitters watering rows of various, young (gallon-size)shrubs (Viburnums, Rose of Sharon, Mock Orange). They say it will accommodate up to 4 spoons of any water-soluble granular fertilizer and to see the fertilizer pkg for application amounts. Not much information. I would like to use Miracle-Gro and their package knows nothing. Neither website offers any specifics. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your question either. I hope someone can help you out with that.

rf, I'm concerned that you perhaps posted this important question in the wrong forum? I don't know enough about the entire site to be sure, but I'm thinking it should be in a more topic-specific forum for you where you're sure to get lots of useful replies.

I'll ask a hostess about it for you.

Try a Google search for the word "FERTIGATION", it is a method of applying fertilizer using the drip irrigation system as you have aptly described in your post.

I use soaker hose and a Miracle-Gro waterer-feeder. It seems to work just fine.
