What fertilizer is good for Clivia in autumn? There is a right way to choose fertilizer

For Clivia, the period that suits its growth best is autumn, because the autumn climate is suitable and the plant also begins to grow vigorously, so it is the best time for repotting. If it has not been repotted or given fresh soil for a long time, we can repot it and change the soil now, otherwise the plant will not be able to obtain enough nutrients to promote growth.

If we repot and mix soil, we need to consider adding some base fertilizer to the pot, and after the plant has settled in, during the vigorous growth period we still need to top-dress in time to supplement nutrients, so as to ensure the plant maintains a vigorous growth trend in autumn. So, what then.

First, when repotting and changing the soil, you can use some garden soil and leaf mold, then add some bone meal to the pot as a base fertilizer, so as to ensure there are enough nutrients in the pot in the early stage to sustain the rapid growth of Clivia. After the plant has settled in, light is also very important, and the potted plant needs to be placed in a spot with good light conditions.

If the potted Clivia shows no leaf growth, then we can consider top-dressing it at this point. Fertilizing must be comprehensive, so the three elements nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium should be supplied, and every month it should also be watered with 1-2 times of dilute fertilizer solution, while also providing sufficient light. The daytime temperature should preferably be kept at 20-25°C, and at night preferably kept at 15°C.

In addition, we can also add some microbial inoculants, special fertilizer for flowers and the like to the pot at an appropriate time, and finally just increase watering appropriately. In this way, you can ensure there are enough nutrients in the pot, ensuring the potted Clivia grows tender green and thick leaves in autumn, with higher ornamental value.
