Why is liquid fertilizer recommended?

Studies have shown that all fertilizer must be in liquid form in order to be absorbed by plants. The properties of liquid fertilizers are far different from dry forms (such as time-release pellets) by the way they move through the soil and become available to plants. Liquid fertilizer, which includes water soluble fertilizer that has been premixed with water, is faster and superior to dry forms when applied frequently, and in small amounts. This enables plants to absorb the nutrients before they are washed away. This also means that there are no stress periods of higher or lower levels of fertilizer which inhibits growth, and no leaching can take place by over watering, which might contaminate natural waters.
