I think a lot of it is an assumption that high nitrogen is used to get leafy plants, Palms are leafy so therefore use high nitrogen. It's good for huge leaves that don't last long, like in Colocasia, and gthe leves are never hardy whatever you do with them, but plants that have to be tough you need some nitrogen, but not too much, and in conjuction with phosphorus and potassium.sanatic1234 wrote:Very hard to know what is right and what is wrong, good job this forum is full of experienced growers that actually know the plants requirements.
