I'm trying miracle gro indoor plant food for the first time, and it's really doing a good job. I thought it was a spray, but it's actually a foam that lays on top of the soil, so you should wait until it's time to water the plant when you use it. Watering the plant helps the foam to penetrate and nourish the soil. My plant has 3 new blooms and I was not expecting any this year. Bottom line, I recommend this product.
