How to use DAP fertilizer safely in home garden?

DAP (18:46:0 NPK) is highly concentrated. Use only 1/4 teaspoon per 10 litre pot, mixed well into soil at sowing time. Never apply to wet roots or as a foliar spray — it burns foliage. In containers, organic alternatives like bone meal or SSP are safer since controlled release reduces risk of salt damage.
