I use Eleanor's VF-11 year-round to help with houseplants, transplants and everyday use in my vegetable garden. You can spray Eleanor's directly on food plants without concern due to it's organic nature.

Eleanors VF11
Best stuff ever! Great for Xmas trees. Mix 4 oz.to 2 gal for initial watering. Then mix 1 tsp per qt to refill. Found this over 40 yrs ago when temporary label at Christmas tree lot came off 8oz bottle. Keeps tree longer than expected. Great for houseplants

    Absolutely the best fertilizer
    I have used this fertilizer for several years and wouldn't be without it. I have more blooms and such healthy plants using this fertilizer. I use it on orchids and my sunroom plants plus all indoor and outdoor plants. Such a great product....you can really tell the difference in your plants when you use it.

    Good stuff for potted plants
    I have used this product for years for our potted plants and it works! And it is not so easy to find, but Hime Depot stocks it regularly.

    Hello Green Thumb
    Like most all the other 5 -Star reviews on this page, VF11 Rocks! I have been using for about 4 months and the results are awesome. Plants are stong, healthy, bushy, green and produce bright colorful flowers. Until we found this most our plants were 50/50 some good and some not so good. When compared to all the other well known garden shop brands all I can say is why waste your time and money? Whats interesting is i seldom write reviews unless i am "extremely" pleased or conversely when I am very disapponted (who has time - right). In any case, this is the "good stuff". The only closing recommendation I have is if you buy this product you will be using it a lot. Therefore, dont skimp when it come to getting a solid all purpose hose sprayer (with brass head). I purchased a Chapin all purpose with metering dial it is built solid and wont fall apart/break like the cheap Miracle Grow models. Hope this helps - you will not be disappointed

            Have used this product for 40 years!
            I use this product for every watering, household and out door plants. You cannot over fertilize and all plants love it. I have a Hoya that blooms constantly as well as African violets, roses, bushes and shrubs. I have a Christmas cactus that I call my Christmas/ Easter cactus because of the blooming. I love it. And will NEVER USE ANYTHING ELSE!

            7 Feet Tall Tomato Plants!!!
            I love this stuff!!! I do organic gardening and would STRONGLY recommend this to anyone who asked. My soil is horrible old clay in decades old planter boxes that hasn't really shown anything spectacular in 20 years. I have about 25 tomato plants in my garden this year and almost all of them are 7 feet tall!! My yield is going to be amazing!!! I have 2 feet tall green pepper plants and my hatch chiles are almost that size. I use it in a hose end sprayer every time I water. My plants are green, strong and vibrant. I'm VERY proud of them. Give it a try --- you'll love it.

            This Fertilizer is Simply the Best!
            I have been using this fertilizer for over 20 years. I cannot say enough about the product. It works wonders on all plants-inside and out. I always have a diluted spray bottle on hand to spray on the leaves of my plants. Inexpensive and works so well and it is organic, too. What more can I say?

              I use it a half gallon at a time and things dont pop out with improvement yet no damage occurs either
              It doesn't show significant improvement when using in fertigation system 2 quarts at a time but also things don't deteriorate either.

                Damaged undeliverable Merchandise correction needs work.
                My experience with damaged during shippment and not delivereable, is that it appears that you are not set up to handle this in an orderly manner. I had to send a half dozen e-mails in order to work through this. Once it was worked out I did receive my shipment in a reasonable period of time undamaged.

                Great Product
                This stuff is great as it helps to make our flowering plants bloom with nice color too. The price is right at Home Depot as other places can charge $20+. The thing I love about it is that it dilutes well so a gallon lasts a long time, especially when used as a spray.

                  VF-11 IS AWESOME
                  This stuff is great! I will never buy any other one. I found this at a different store 3 yrs ago and it has turned my black thumb into an actually green one. Before I would buy plants and they would eventually die, not one of them that I have bought since I started using vf_11 has died. And the clippings that I have put in water actually get roots on them and a lot quicker then the other root toners out there.. I think its great that it doesn't hurt pets or kids. My cats keep drinking my plant water..too funny :o)

                  VF-11 wins again
                  This product is the only one I use for indoor plants. There is no odor and just a little balances the water. It is very good at negating the effects of water treatments so indoor plants do suffer from toxic water treatment.

                  VF-11 The Best!
                  I have been using Eleanor's VF-11 for over 2 years. By chance I found it online when I was desperately searching for help for my Mystery Gardenias. It has been the ONLY plant food that saved them. I drove all over San Diego County to find Eleanor's VF-11 and bought it by the gallon. Believe me , it works and if it works for the tempermental gardenia, you know it has to be super-good. I now use it for all my plants and I am thrilled that my favorite store, Home Depot carries this product and at a very good price, too!
