How to fertilize a Money Tree? What fertilizer is best

I. Fertilization timing

First, when planting, it is best to use some fertilizer, as this helps the plant's subsequent growth. In addition, it needs fertilizer during its growth period, especially from April to September, which is the stage when it grows fastest.

II. Types of fertilizer

For the base fertilizer used at planting, you can choose some slow-release fertilizer, which works well. For the growth period, mainly some liquid fertilizer is used, which you can buy from a flower shop; you can directly buy fertilizer specifically for Money Trees, which gives better results.

III. Fertilization methods

1. Slow-release fertilizer can be buried directly into the soil, and it will gradually take effect. Liquid fertilizer needs to be diluted first before use; fertilizer that is too concentrated easily causes fertilizer burn.

2. Fertilization can follow the method of small amounts given frequently, that is, the amount of each fertilization needs to be controlled, while the frequency can be higher, with once every one to two weeks being appropriate.

3. Since the Money Tree is mainly a foliage plant, it has a relatively high demand for nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer, so you need to pay more attention to these two types of elements to promote the growth of its branches and leaves.

IV. Precautions

The Money Tree may enter a dormant state due to unsuitable temperatures; at this time there is no need to fertilize, otherwise it easily damages the plant's root system.
