How to Make Your Flowers Bloom & Your Garden Thrive Using Biostimulants

How to Make Your Flowers Bloom & Your Garden Thrive Using Biostimulants

Noticing fewer blooms or smaller harvests than expected? While summer is the season for peak growth, challenges like heat stress, pests, and inconsistent nutrients can hold your garden back. The good news? You can fight back naturally—with EarthSmart biostimulants.

In this fourth installment of our Boost Your Garden’s Growth series, we’re spotlighting how foliar-applied biostimulants—like EarthSmart Foliar Fertilizer—can help plants thrive, bloom beautifully, and stay resilient through summer stress. Check out all the blogs in this series below.


🌸 1. Why Flowers and Productivity Falter

Your garden faces many stressors this time of year:

  • Scorching sun and heatwaves
  • Insect damage and disease pressure
  • Fluctuating soil moisture and nutrient depletion

These challenges can lead to smaller blooms, fewer fruits, and plants that don’t reach their potential.


💡 2. How Biostimulants Help Flowers Bloom Brighter

Biostimulants aren't just fertilizers—they enhance internal plant processes. They don't add nutrients; they help plants use what’s already there more efficiently.

Specifically, for flowers and fruiting plants, they:

  • Improve nutrient uptake, focusing on bloom-supporting elements like phosphorus and potassium
  • Boost flower count and quality, plus extend bloom periods 
  • Increase yields in fruits and vegetables by supporting overall plant vigor 

🌱 3. Featured Biostimulant to Try

EarthSmart Foliar Fertilizer (ESFF) is a broad-spectrum, natural liquid fertilizer designed to enhance flowering, yield, and overall plant vigor. Ideal for vegetables, fruits, root crops, ornamentals, and trees, it delivers a fast-acting nutrient boost through the leaves—exactly when and where your plants need it.

🛠️ 4. Best Practices for Using Biostimulants

  1. Timing is key: Start applications right before flowering begins.
  2. Foliar vs soil: Foliar sprays deliver nutrients directly to leaves for fast results. Soil drenches support long-term root and microbial health.
  3. Integrate with fertilizer: Biostimulants enhance performance of your regular nutrient regime 
  4. Reapply strategically: Every 2–4 weeks through the flowering and fruiting cycle ensures plants stay on track.

🌞 5. July: Prime Time to Supercharge Your Garden

With plentiful sunshine and peak plant activity, July is the perfect moment to give your biostimulants a place in your routine. They can help prevent mid-season slump and keep flowers blooming and veggies producing.

🌿 Real Results From Real Gardeners

When Sharon from Alberta tried EarthSmart’s natural fertilizer in her garden, she was blown away by the transformation:

“Every carrot seed that was ever in that garden came up this year. It was awesome.”
“Garden and everything is like a beautiful forest.”Summer harvest boosted with biostimulants“This plant was pathetic when I bought it at the end of the season… I put on the fertilizer, and I’ve never seen anything like it in my whole life.”

And this is what John had to share:

"Just wanted to let you know that I think your products are fantastic.  I can't believe how healthy all my plants are. I had a dogwood tree that was pale green and all the leaves were brown on the ends and it just would not grow. I put your product on it and now the leaves are dark green and shiny and it has about 5” of new growth on it already.  Also, I almost took out a rose bush this spring that was really hurting for several years and especially after this past winter it was almost dead.  I put the ESFF on it and it came back, fast.  It now has a ton of new growth and blooms.  I had some sick looking house plants as well that I had for years and now after putting the ESFF on them they are all thriving.  I told my neighbors about your products and now they are going to try them as well. Thanks, John"

Sharon and John's experience highlights what many gardeners discover: when you feed plants the right way—with a natural, foliar-applied fertilizer—they respond with vibrant growth, resilience, and stunning productivity.
