A lot of times the baskets die because they are not being properly watered, not over watered. The best way to water baskets and some pots that never seem to get watered thoroughly is to actually soak them in a big bucket of water until all the air bubbles are gone then give them five more minutes of soak time. Make sure the bucket is big enough for the water to cover the plant.

I live in South Carolina where the thunderstorms can sneak up on you in the summer. This makes me have to deal with overwatering my PW petunias. I have wilted buds that don’t bloom I can only guess that it’s overwatering since there’s no critters doing damage. So here’s my question. Since I have messed up the watering cycle would it be recommended that I remove the plant from the hanging basket and perhaps let the bottom dry out a little bit?

nice video, thanks! I have a couple questions. 1) How often should Supertunia's be fertilized (fed the plant food)? I have an organic plant food and I've been feeding mine once every 10 days (as the package says to) and my plants do not look nearly as good as yours. 2) Can I overwinter my hanging basket Supertunias? I live in upstate NY but could bring my hanging basements into the basement... if I cut them back some and put them on a box with gravel base to keep them humid would they survive over winter?

Proven Winners always suggests to fertilize every third watering for plant fullness. Just be careful you water it slowly in spring, and everyday during the summer, and check the soil for drieness during fall. Wind causes soil to dry out faster on hanging plants. I only use proven winners water soluable fertilizer I'm afraid of burning the plants using any other fertilizer.

Hello there! I don't know if yours are planted in a baskets or in-ground but I'll give you some advice. I am in MI and have failed every single year in maintaining my hanging Supertunia baskets (mini petunias), had the same issues as you. This year I did some research and have had tremendous success watering the heck out of each baskets and following up immediately using Jacks Petunia Feed (it usually comes in a 25-40LB bag but the 1-4LB smaller sizes are available on eBay!) Optionally you can use Miracle Gro Bloom Booster 10-52-10. (they don't seem to have this particular version in stores, you can get it online). My baskets look even fuller with blooms than the ones in this video all by doing 3 things daily: 1) make sure your baskets have at LEAST half a day of direct sun, morning or later afternoon, either is fine. 2) Water each basket very generously until water literally runs out freely from the bottom, if you are hand watering I'd say use at least 2 gallons of water for each basket. 3) After the water has stopped dripping (about 15 mins after the initial watering) add about 1/2 a gallon of water pre-mixed with one of the fertilizers mentioned above. I've been doing this every day since May and I have neighbors knocking on my door asking me what the heck I am feeding my petunias. Best of luck!

Do you add plant food every time you water them?

Proven Winners always suggests to fertilize every third watering for plant fullness. Just be careful you water it slowly in spring, and everyday during the summer, and check the soil for drieness during fall. Wind causes soil to dry out faster on hanging plants. I only use proven winners water soluable fertilizer I'm afraid of burning the plants using any other fertilizer.
Greetings and best wishes from India.. What's the brand name that you are using that's the fertilizer Name..

After buying 7 or 8 of these,, done all you have done,,, I still never can get an accurate reply from any NURSERY,, as hot to keep the top from sinking and losing all of its shape. I purchased my last one last year,, I usually have to toss them, due to their looking so bad and neglected,, which they definitely were not. Can you please, give me the secret,, many people in my area have the same issues with the baskets with this type of Flower, Thanks.
I could not get the name of the food for the plants
Need pinching???
how can it be over watering when you just said to water every day?

Wayne Walton if it comes out the bottom instantaneously the soil was too dry. There should be some delay between when you start watering and when water actually comes out the bottom of the planter.
Where do I find these baskets?

They are called supertunias and you can buy them through Proven Winners. They are genetically created to be so full
