Sun-loving plants in hanging baskets will require regular watering, especially on warm, sunny days. Fertilizing promotes the formation of new buds and prolongs the summer's bloom.
Hanging baskets that are filled with sun-loving plants will need watering daily, especially on sunny, warm days. They will also need to be fertilized with a liquid fertilizer at least once a week. Fertilizing encourages new buds to form and keeps them blooming all summer long. You can choose to feed them every time you water them but do it at a reduced rate. If you get to the middle of the summer and your petunias are getting too long, you can give them a haircut.
