What fertilizer is best for lavender? A detailed guide to the latest fertilizing methods

1. Fertilizing Time

First, when regularly changing the soil, ideally once a year or once every two years, base fertilizer can be added in. In addition, during the growth stage, when growth is relatively vigorous, the fertilizer requirement is also relatively greater.

2. Types of Fertilizer

When choosing base fertilizer, the main types used are some organic fertilizers. Decomposed fertilizer should be used, and do not apply raw fertilizer. For topdressing, liquid fertilizer or granular compound fertilizer can be used, and it can be bought directly from a flower shop. If there is a special fertilizer for flowers, it is also quite suitable.

3. Fertilizing Methods

1. First prepare the base fertilizer and the growing medium, then mix them together, fill them all into the flower pot, and plant the plant. If liquid fertilizer is chosen for topdressing, then a large amount of water needs to be added before applying it, and do not apply concentrated fertilizer; if granular fertilizer is chosen, then a hole needs to be dug in the growing medium and the fertilizer placed in, and it can slowly take effect.

2. The number of topdressings does not need to be too many; once or twice a month is fine, and it can basically meet its requirements.

4. Precautions

Before the flowering period, a certain amount of fertilizer can be applied to promote flowering. However, when it is exactly in the flowering period, there is no need to fertilize. Furthermore, when it is in the dormant period, application must also be paused.
