ABSTRACT:
A disk composed of rigid open cell synthetic resin foam has a recess in one face for being occupied by fertilizer. A water permeable plug of similar foam is inserted in the recess to retain the fertilizer and to serve as a wick for conducting fertilizer dissolved in water out of the recess and into the bottom hole of a plant pot standing on the disk for the fertilizer to permeate the soil in the pot. The fertilizer is preferably composed of pellets coated with water permeable resin. In use the disk is set in a reservoir and covered with water.
