The role of nitrogen fertilizer in flower cultivation

There are five elements in potted flower cultivation: first, sunlight; second, humidity; third, watering; fourth, fertilizing; fifth, the air environment. Among these five elements, whether the fertilizing is done well or poorly can show whether the flowers thrive. This fertilizing method is correct. Flowers, fruit, roots, thick leaves and green are common things!

But when it comes to fertilizing, flower buds usually refer to the people who sell flowers as fertilizer. They rarely know which fertilizer is useful. For example, not long ago, a flower friend came to the gardener's uncle to solve his confusion: "Uncle, I want to ask you, what role does this nitrogen fertilizer play in flower cultivation? How is nitrogen fertilizer used in flower cultivation?"

This nitrogen fertilizer is used on flowers mainly to promote tree growth, increase chlorophyll, strengthen their nutrition and improve growth. Therefore, when nitrogen fertilizer is used, it is usually during the vigorous growth period of flowers and plants, or topdressing is carried out at regular intervals. However, when fertilizing, you must also be careful not to over-fertilize. For example, when fertilizer is applied, too much nitrogen will cause plant tissues to soften, stems and leaves to elongate, plants to be more susceptible to diseases and insects, and cold resistance to decrease. However, a lack of nitrogen fertilizer will lead to small plants, yellow-green leaves, slow growth and no flowering.

Therefore, you know that the effect of nitrogen fertilizer is not good, and you must also master the correct fertilizing amount and method. Generally speaking, when nitrogen fertilizer is made, it is also classified as animal nitrogen and plant nitrogen, such as animal nitrogen, usually manure, horse, cow, sheep and pig manure. And sesame residue, bean cake, rapeseed cake, cottonseed cake and other plants are plant nitrogen fertilizers. These two fertilizers belong to organic fertilizers.

Mineral nitrogen fertilizer is inorganic fertilizer; fertilizers such as ammonium sulfate, nitrate, urea, and ammonia water are all nitrogen fertilizers. Usually, they are used outside the roots as topdressing, but if used as root fertilizer, the soil tends to become compacted.

Nitrogen fertilizer can also be obtained by making it yourself. With the common "little things" at home, you can make your own nutrient water for flower cultivation. Both flowers and plants use it, flowers and leaves are lush, and effects can be produced in 2 weeks. It is a good choice for flower cultivation!

This little thing is actually soybean. As a food, soybean is rich in protein and amino acids. Fermented and decomposed soybean becomes "nitrogen fertilizer." After all, it contains many nitrogen elements. So soybean can be used as organic nitrogen fertilizer to grow flowers. Baitao is also very easy to use.

So how do you make flower fertilizer? The first step is to wash the soybeans at home, put them into a pot, boil them with water and fire for half an hour, then slowly stew them over a small fire until the soybeans are easily crushed by hand, then pull them out. Take them out of the pot and cool them.

The soybeans can be put into a bottle, then water is poured in, and fermentation can be completed in about 40-60 days. During the soybean fermentation process, the gas produced may accumulate in the container, so the lid of the container does not need to be completely sealed. Some small holes can be left to help release the gas. Fully mature soybean water is rich in nitrogen fertilizer and can be used for growing flowers after adding water. The flowers are green and the effect is very good. If you like it, you can try it. If you have the conditions, you can also throw some orange peel in when fermenting soybean water, which helps reduce the smell of the soybean water.
