NPK 5-15-45 is a water-soluble fertilizer specially formulated for flowering and fruiting stages. With a low nitrogen (5%) and high phosphorus (15%) and potassium (45%) content, it encourages strong blooms, more fruits, and better resistance to stress in flowering plants, vegetables, and fruit trees.

This formula is ideal for plants that are entering the budding or flowering stage. It helps plants direct their energy toward flower and fruit production rather than leafy growth.

Best For:

• Fruiting vegetables and vines
• Flowering plants (indoor or outdoor)
• Container-grown fruits like lemons, strawberries
• Mature plants entering bloom stage
• Summer flowering or fruiting periods

Benefits:

• More Flowers and Fruit: High potassium helps set more blooms and boost fruit size
• Strong Roots: Phosphorus supports deeper root development and nutrient uptake
• Low Nitrogen: Prevents excessive leafy growth during flowering
• Stress Support: Helps plants recover from heat, drought, or transplant shock
• Water-Soluble: Quick results and easy application

How to Use NPK 5-15-45 Fertilizer

For Potted Plants (8–12 inch pots):

• Mix 1 teaspoon in 1 liter of water
• Pour around the base of each plant
• Apply once every 10–15 days while flowering/fruiting continues

For Trees (in Soil or Large Pots):

• Mix 1 teaspoon per foot of plant height in 1 liter of water (e.g., 4 tsp for a 4-foot tree).
• Pour the solution around the base, a few inches away from the trunk.
• Repeat every 10–15 days for best results.

For Garden Beds or Grow Bags:

What does 5-15-45 mean?
It means the fertilizer has low nitrogen, medium phosphorus, and high potassium — ideal for flowering and fruiting.

When should I start using it?
Start when flower buds appear or fruiting begins. Don’t use it during early leafy growth.

Which plants benefit the most?
Tomatoes, chillies, okra, gourds, roses, hibiscus, lemons, guavas, and other flowering or fruiting plants.
