| This purple tiger plant has been growing for around a month now. There are a few small flower buds forming on it. So, does it require fertiliser of any sort to boost it? |

| I would say yes. Not because the plant looks bad but 'cause they all need fertilizer. |

| I find using a very weak fert. mix about every time I water works better than full strength at any time. Make sure you water until some comes out the bottom to wash out any build up. |

| Yes, I suggest what smoke and rockguy say. The plant looks good for one month and I wouldn't try to fix something that isn't broke. Bruce |

| "Weekly Weakly" is a mantra that some of us use....reduced, but frequent doses. The plant looks quite healthy despite the bad looking soil. Also, toss those eggshells..... they're doing NOTHING for the plant.
