Clivia is a very popular leaf-viewing plant, but their growth requires sufficient nutrients, which requires us to choose appropriate fertilizers to meet the growth needs of Clivia. This article will introduce the selection skills and use methods of clivia fertilizer to help enthusiasts create healthy and beautiful clivia.
1. Understand the nutritional needs of Clivia is a leaf-viewing plant that likes sun, is tolerant to shade, drought-tolerant and cold-tolerant. They require a lot of nutrients to maintain their growth state. The nutritional requirements of Clivia mainly include elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as trace elements such as zinc, copper, and iron.
2. Choose organic fertilizers as the first choice. Organic fertilizers are rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other elements and are easy to be absorbed. The use of organic fertilizers can increase soil fertility, improve soil structure, and is conducive to the healthy growth of Clivia.
3. Avoid using excessive fertilizer Clivia is not resistant to fertilizer. Excessive fertilizer will cause excessive growth of Clivia and affect the viewing effect. We must pay attention to using appropriate amount of fertilizer when fertilizing.
4. Choose a fertilizer with a suitable pH value. Clivia likes acidic environments. Generally speaking, it is most appropriate to use fertilizers with a pH value between 4.5 and 6.5. If fertilizers with too high or too low pH are used, the growth of Clivia will be affected.
5. Choosing fertilizers rich in trace elements trace elements is very important for the growth of Clivia. Especially trace elements such as zinc, copper, and iron can promote the normal growth and development of Clivia. When selecting fertilizers, you must pay attention to whether it contains enough trace elements.
6. Choosing slow-release fertilizers for fertilization and slow-release fertilizers can continue to provide nutrients to Clivia and reduce the harm caused by frequent fertilization to Clivia. At the same time, slow-release fertilizers can also improve soil structure and improve soil water retention.
7. Reasonable use of compound fertilizers Compound fertilizers contain a variety of elements, which can meet the nutrient needs of Clivia at different growth stages. Reasonable use of compound fertilizers can meet the growth needs of Clivia in different periods.
8. Pay attention to fertilization time Generally speaking, spring is the main season for the growth of Clivia, and the number of fertilization times should be increased at this time. The number of fertilization should be appropriately reduced in summer and autumn, and fertilization should be stopped in winter. Paying attention to fertilization time can avoid excessive fertilization causing damage to Clivia.
9. Pay attention to the dilution ratio of fertilizers. Different types of fertilizers have different dilution ratios, so they must be diluted according to the ratio stated in the instructions. Too thick or too thin fertilizer will affect the growth of Clivia.
10. Reasonable fertilization methods Generally speaking, root fertilization has a better effect and can ensure that nutrients are directly absorbed. Foliar fertilization can also be used, but care should be taken not to let the fertilizer get on the petals to avoid damaging the plant surface.
11. Pay attention to the preservation method of fertilizers. After use, the fertilizers should be stored in a cool and dry place. If it is stored and not used for a long time, try to seal the mouth of the bag tightly to prevent it from deteriorating due to moisture.
12. Choose special fertilizer Clivia is a relatively special plant, so we can choose special Clivia fertilizer to ensure the healthy growth of Clivia.
13. Pay attention to the selection of fertilizers and the matching of plant states. Clivia requires different fertilizers at different growth stages. When selecting fertilizers, we must select the right fertilizer based on the growth status of Clivia.
14. Different types of Clivia choose different fertilizers. There are many varieties of Clivia, and different varieties have different fertilizer needs. When selecting fertilizers, the right fertilizer should be selected according to the specific variety.
15. Selecting appropriate fertilizers is the key to maintaining the healthy growth of Clivia. We should understand the nutritional needs of Clivia and choose appropriate amounts of fertilizers, suitable pH, trace elements, and slow-release fertilizers. At the same time, attention should also be paid to the matching of fertilization time, dilution ratio, storage method and fertilizer selection with plant status. Only scientific and reasonable fertilization can clivia grow healthily and bring us more appreciation value.
