Can I use african violet plant food for regular plants?
Oh yes. You can use it on most blooming plants. However, Miracle Grow is even better.
Reply:call your local greenhouse and ask. certain plants, such as african violets, take different food then other plants because they need something that is more acidic or more basic or that has different nutrients. while it might be ok for some plants, it might burn the roots of others. so just call and they'll be able to tell you.
Reply:all plants like food in small portions,use it
Reply:Yes, don't use the full amount that it directs you to use on a violet. I would use 1/2. I have done this with rose food and indoor plant food (used it outdoors).
