Thanks for the question. You can put a liquid fertilizer in your water chamber, but there are a few things you will want to take into consideration. Since your African violet will be continuously pulling from the fertilizer/water mixture, you only want to use a very small amount to make sure it is well diluted so it does not burn your plant’s roots. You want to add the fertilizer to fresh water.
During the growing season, you can add a small amount with each water change, but you just want to be careful at first because you do not want to overfertilize. It would be best to see how it responds by adding it every other change in the beginning.
