What fertilizer is best for plum blossoms? Detailed explanation of fertilization methods

I. Fertilization timing

Relatively speaking, plum blossoms need a fair amount of fertilizer. First, in spring and autumn, that is, when their growth rate is relatively fast. In addition, when they are in the flowering period, they need to be fertilized once. Before winter arrives, they must also be fertilized once, which helps them get through the winter.

II. Types of fertilizer

Plum blossoms need different types of fertilizer at different stages. During their growth period, the fertilizer they need is various organic fertilizers, such as cake fertilizer and so on. When they are in the flowering period, what they need is a quick-acting fertilizer. Before winter arrives, the fertilizer applied is decomposed organic fertilizer.

III. Fertilization methods

1. No matter which period you fertilize in, it needs to be diluted before use, and the concentration must not be too high. After dilution, spread it evenly on the surface of the soil. Fertilizing can also be done together with watering, which has a diluting effect.

2. The frequency of fertilization also needs to be controlled. The number of fertilizer applications does not need to be too many. During the vigorous growth periods in spring and autumn, once every 20-30 days is generally enough to meet their needs. During the flowering period and when winter arrives, they only need to be fertilized once.

IV. Points to note

In summer, because the temperature is very high, plum blossoms may enter a dormant state. At this time, there is no need to fertilize, otherwise it will cause their root system to rot and affect normal growth afterward.
