Palmgain can be applied every 4 to 6 weeks. It should be spread evenly onto the soil surface and gently worked into the soil. Avoid damage to shallow roots. It should be kept off of the foliage and away from the trunk. Be sure to water the area well before and after fertilizing. Do not apply to dry soil. Take care to brush or wash fertilizer granules off leaves to prevent injury (burn). Do not fertilize immediately when planting palms, wait for the potential of transplant shock to pass (4 to 6 weeks after planting).

I just started using this product and it appears to be doing great. Time will tell. As far as the product Palm Gain is a well rated product and I hope to see great results from the product.
Yes, the PalmGain 8-2-12 is the same as 8-2-12-4. The "4" refers to the amount of Magnesium in the fertlizer. PalmGain does contain the 4% Magnesium per the manufacturer.
PalmGain 8-2-12 Plus Minors is not controlled released, it is a quick release product.
We apologize, but the PalmGain 8 -2-12 is a new fertilizer that we have recently started to carry and do not have that information currently. We recommend contact BGI, LLC directly at (561) 374-9216.
