Morning or evening is the best time for this. Watering should also be done slowly and, if possible, not over the flowers and leaves. - Many bedding and balcony plants have high to very high nutrient requirements. For this reason, slow-release fertiliser should be mixed into the potting soil when planting. After 4-6 weeks, liquid fertiliser should be added regularly.
