What are the fertilizer requirements when growing clivia?

Fertilizing: For clivia (Clivia miniata), apply a solid fertilizer once in winter, use less nitrogen fertilizer and more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. Eggshell powder and fermented fish waste water are very good phosphorus fertilizers, while bran ash and tobacco ash are readily available potassium fertilizers. A compound fertilizer of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium can also be applied to encourage it to sprout more new plants and leaves. Fertilizing must be done in the right amount; never apply strong fertilizer or raw fertilizer that has not been fermented and decomposed, otherwise it easily causes the leaf tips to scorch or rot.
