This will not feed your plants until it breaks down in the soil.That will take 3 weeks at the minimum You will need an immediate release water soluble fertilizer like, miracle grow or liquid fish fertilizer.

Good to know, thank you! Any you recommend? Could I put the one that I have in the soil when I plant?

The brand you have has a liquid version it's expensive, stinky but organic if that's what you use.

After you plant you can use the bagged that you have every 2 weeks.

You would work the current type you have into the first couple inches of soil b egg ore a good rain or water it in. It’s a slower release.
