Autumn flower fertilization should be carried out in combination with watering, following the principle of "light fertilizer, applied frequently," generally applying a light fertilizer once every half month. It is divided into base fertilizer, top dressing and foliar feeding. Base fertilizer is added with the soil when potting or repotting. Top dressing is generally liquid fertilizer, such as soybean cake water. Foliar fertilizer generally uses a fertilizer concentration of 0.1%~0.2%, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate, urea, etc.

For flowers that go dormant in winter, apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizers; for flowers that do not go dormant in winter, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied. Reasonable phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can enhance the cold resistance of flowers. Flowers that bloom in winter are in the vegetative growth stage in early autumn, so a fertilizer mainly based on nitrogen should be applied; in late autumn most are in the bud stage, and when fertilizing such flowers, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be the main choice with nitrogen as a supplement, as too much nitrogen is not conducive to winter blooming.

The above is a detailed share with everyone. I hope this article is helpful to everyone, and I wish you good luck.
