Add this to your long-lived clivia in autumn and the leaves will be so plump they drip with oil, with buds blooming nonstop

Autumn is here! With the heat of summer gone, all kinds of potted flowers have resumed growing, especially plants that bloom in winter. Now is the perfect time to fertilize. Let's take a look with Huahua at how to fertilize your potted plants at home!

Fertilize your clivia and the leaves will shine and drip with oil!

Lately many people have been asking Huahua: now that autumn has arrived, can clivia be fertilized? Huahua says of course it can, but for gardening friends in the south, it is still best to wait until the maximum temperature stays below 30°C before fertilizing~

Autumn is the growing season for clivia, so you must apply fertilizer to make full preparations for flower bud differentiation.

Fertilizing method:

1. Clivia has just come through the hot summer and is in the stage of resuming growth, so it is best to first apply a

nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium

complete organic fertilizer. For example, roasted

hemp seed

, well-rotted and fermented

cake fertilizer

、

bone meal

and the like can all be used as base fertilizer applied along with the autumn soil change.

If you do not plan to repot, we can also bury the above solid fertilizers directly into the potting soil, at a depth of about 2cm, being careful not to let them come into direct contact with the roots.

2. Every half month, apply a top dressing of fermented

cake fertilizer water

、

fishy water

, and when October arrives, begin increasing

phosphorus-potassium fertilizer

application to encourage the plant to shoot up its flower spike. At this time it also needs plenty of light and a sufficiently large temperature difference for the plant to bloom smoothly.

Fertilize your kalanchoe and buds will pop out like crazy!

With crisp autumn air, kalanchoe has awakened too. The next 3 months are the plant's peak growing season, so seize the timing and apply fertilizer, and a bursting pot of blooms is no dream.

Fertilizing method:

1. For small newly rooted cuttings, we must wait until they have grown roots before fertilizing. When the seedlings grow to three or four pairs of leaves, they should be pinched, and during the growing period begin applying

nitrogen fertilizer

to promote the growth of branches and leaves.

2. Autumn is exactly the plant's bud-forming period, so supplement it with

phosphorus-potassium fertilizer

to promote flower bud differentiation. We can choose to use phosphorus-potassium fertilizer as a root drench, then about a week later use

monopotassium phosphate

to spray the leaves, so the leaves can also absorb some of the fertilizer, hitting it from both sides.

In autumn you must give the plant plenty of sunlight, and stop fertilizing once the plant blooms.

Fertilize your money tree and the leaves will be sturdy and the branches will not topple!

Many gardening friends say that when the money tree is first bought and brought home it grows very sturdy, but after a while the branches and leaves gradually become thin and small. That is because it lacks fertilizer!

Fertilizing method:

1. We can add base fertilizer when planting, and can apply

cake fertilizer

that we compost ourselves at home, or

slow-release compound fertilizer

。

2. During the peak growing period, the plant's demand for nutrients is relatively large. We can use 0.2%

urea

and 0.1%

monopotassium phosphate

mixed together, or we can apply the balanced fertilizer calcium nitrate.

3. Note that when there is little light and photosynthesis is poor, the fertilizer supply should be reduced. Usually also remember to apply thin fertilizer frequently, otherwise if fertilizer burn occurs, the loss will outweigh the gain.
