Miracle Grow All Purpose Plant Food

(Zone 8b)

Is it normal for Miracle Grow All Purpose Plant Food to smell strongly of ammonia? It is liquid, and it is about two years old, but that is a guess...might be just a year. Can't remember. And, I'm talking straight out of the bottle, not once it is mixed with water. Once mixed, there is no ammonia smell whatsoever.

Are you talking about the water soluble or liquid form? How old is it?

The only time I've noticed a real odor to the liquid form is when it was several years old. I threw it out.

I've only been gardening about a year and more experienced gardeners here may have other experiences.
