Rice water plus a small pill sprinkled into the flowerpot, why did 20 pots of flowers wither and die overnight?

In the process of growing flowers, when light, water and soil are all about the same, whether a plant is sturdy and whether it blooms abundantly depends mainly on fertilizing. Without fertilizer, a flower will at most be a bit thin and weak, but fertilizing blindly is nothing short of murder! Today Huahua will tell everyone under what circumstances you must not fertilize!

Fertilize a newly planted flower once, and the roots and stems all rot

A newly transplanted plant is either thin and weak or has many wounds. At this time, when stimulated by the outside world, the wounds heal slowly, and fertilizing easily causes

root and stem rot

。

When you travel for work or have just moved to a new place, you often struggle to adapt to the climate and water, and come down with a cold, fever or diarrhea. If you still eat "tonics" at this time, it will only "add fuel to the fire."

Fertilizing sick and weak plants invites pests and yellow leaves

Sick and weak plants have thin, weak branches, poor photosynthesis and slow metabolism, so they cannot absorb fertilizer; instead, it causes

fertilizer burn

Think about it: when you are sick, can you still eat rich meats and fish? A weak body cannot take tonics, and growing flowers is the same. Just recovering from a serious illness, with breath as faint as a thread and weak roots, heavy fertilizer and heavy watering will mean certain death!

Fertilizing during the flowering period makes flowers, leaves and fruit drop

During the flowering period, the plant's nutrients need to be supplied in a concentrated way so the flowers bloom large and plentiful. It is best not to fertilize during this period, otherwise it causes

bud drop

flower drop

fruit drop

The reason is simple: after the roots receive fertilizer, they tend to grow side shoots, and the nutrients are all supplied to the side shoots, which prevents the flowers from opening and causes bud drop and flower drop!

The correct time to fertilize is before flowering, during flower bud differentiation, when fertilizing promotes more bud formation!

Fertilizing during the dormant period lightly burns roots and severely kills the plant

Whether it is summer dormancy or winter dormancy, do not fertilize. Fertilizing easily causes

root burn

death of the plant

During dormancy, the plant grows slowly or even stops growing and needs very, very few nutrients, so there is no need to fertilize at all.

Fertilizing at the root crown, and all the nutrients are lost

The root crown is the root and the base of the stem near the root. Some plants spread their roots very quickly, and if you fertilize at the root crown, other places cannot absorb nutrients well!

For these plants with well-developed roots, when fertilizing you must first loosen the surface soil, then fertilize along the edge of the pot, letting it seep in little by little so it can be fully absorbed and used.

Apply

strong fertilizer once and it burns the roots

If the fertilizer concentration is too high or the amount too large, it causes

fertilizer burn of the roots

and death of the plant

The correct way to fertilize is "light fertilizer, applied frequently"; three parts fertilizer to seven parts water is the safest.

Raw fertilizer stinks and attracts pests

Raw fertilizer is fertilizer that has not been composted. It not only attracts pests and gives off a bad smell, but when buried in the soil and fermented after meeting water, it also causes root burn!

In daily life, things like rice water and leftover tea are best mixed with water and fermented for a few days before being used to water flowers.

Applying only nitrogen fertilizer makes plants grow leggy as a dog

Nitrogen fertilizer promotes plant growth and lush branches and leaves. Applying only nitrogen fertilizer easily causes

leggy growth of the plant

failure to bloom

small, pale flowers

The correct way to fertilize is to use nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers together. During the seedling and growth stages, mainly use nitrogen fertilizer; before and after flowering, mainly use phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.
