What effects does oil-pressed sesame cake have on clivia? Sesame cake is one of the best fertilizers for growing clivia, as it can make its leaves glossy and its leaf veins grow deep. It is absolutely effective.

But sesame cake cannot be used directly on it. If you use sesame cake directly on it, it will cause root burn. It will only be counterproductive. Sesame cake must be used after complete fermentation and decomposition. Only after it is fully fermented and decomposed will it not burn roots, and only then will it be nutrients that clivia roots can absorb, and only then can clivia grow well.

Sesame cake, soybean cake, peanut cake and similar oil crop residues left after oil pressing are all very good multi-element mixed fertilizers mainly based on nitrogen fertilizer. The nitrogen content in them is very high, and they also contain other elements. They are very good for growing clivia. But when using them on clivia, you must choose the right time. If you use this kind of fertilizer on clivia during its flowering period, it will cause it to only grow leaves and not bloom. As long as clivia is in its growing season, you can use this kind of fertilizer on it. When it is blooming, of course you should supplement it with phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer supplementation can promote its roots to grow thick and strong, make it bloom more, and prevent the situation of stuck arrows.

As for how to ferment it, we can crush the sesame cake and put it into a large oil drum. Do not put in too much sesame cake; 1/10 of the drum is enough. Then add water to the drum. Be sure to leave a certain water level, otherwise after it expands, gas is likely to form inside and burst the whole drum. Then put the drum in a place with the most sufficient light, especially in summer. If placed under the sun to bake, it can be used directly after three months. When the fermented stench becomes relatively mild, then add a certain amount of orange peel, leave it for another one or two days, then dilute with water at a ratio of 10 to 1 to water flowers. It is a very easy-to-use slightly acidic fertilizer mainly based on nitrogen.
