When fertilizing clivia normally, the fertilizer must be fully fermented. If fertilizer is applied before it is rotted, clivia will develop root rot and leaf spots.

After soaking, dip it in a layer of plant ash and leave it for one day, then replant it in new soil. Normally, do not place it in an environment with too high a temperature to grow.
