Once youve potted or re-potted the plant, dont fertilize within four to six months if youre using a general houseplant potting soil. These soils have slow-release fertilizer already mixed in. After this, fertilize when you water during the summer and spring months, then refrain from feeding during the fall and winter seasons.
