Roots need oxygen, suitable temperature and moisture before nutrients can be used. A dormant or failing tree does not become healthy through a stronger dose.
Feed an actively growing tree according to species, development goal and substrate. Never use fertiliser as emergency medicine for damaged roots.

A weakened tree usually needs stable light, correct moisture and time—not simultaneous pruning, feeding and repotting.

A young tree building trunk and branches is fed differently from a refined tree whose internodes and leaves must remain compact.
Follow the product analysis, account for organic and mineral sources together, and occasionally flush freely draining substrate with suitable water.
