You need different fertilizers for different plants. Gardeners all have different ideas what is best for their plants. Some make their own from things like molasses, bat guano, seaweed, and fish emulsion. Others use store bought products such as Miracle-Gro. Bottom line is read labels and experiment to find what works best for you.

What happens if you give plants too little fertilizer?
You definitely can give plants too much fertilizer - although it depends on the type of fertilizer as to what the consequences are. Too much fertilizer will poison the plants and make them either die or become sickly and more easily attacked by diseases and pests. Most granular and liquid fertilizers are basically salts and when they become concentrated in a solid or liquid form a burn can occur. Some weed-and-feed fertilizers actually work by overstimulating the growth of the weeds so that their growth exceeds the ability of their roots to supply water and nutrition once the fertilizer is used up - thus killing the weed. Too much fertilizer can cause the same problem in desirable plants including lawn grass.

Depends on which plants you are wanting to feed. Indoor (or containerised) plants really need a liquid food to reduce build-up of salts. You should be able to find most of these at your local plant nursery. They include the three essential nutrients - Nitrogen (N) Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K). Plants in your garden generally need a fertiliser which is high in N and K. There are many different forms of these - but it is often best to use a "slow-release" (SR) fertiliser. The component which is released slowly is the nitrogen component (which can "burn" the roots if released too rapidly).
