Spring Bonsai, as a traditional art form in our country, not only has high ornamental value but also serves as a spiritual寄托. To make Spring Bonsai thrive with vitality, the selection of fertilizer is crucial. What kind of fertilizer should be used for Spring Bonsai? This article will introduce it in detail for you.
Spring Bonsai Fertilizer Selection Principles1. Suitable for plant growth: When choosing fertilizer, it is first necessary to consider whether it is suitable for the growth needs of Spring Bonsai. Spring Bonsai is suitable for using fertilizers with balanced nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium content.
2. Non-toxic and non-polluting: Fertilizers should be selected as green, environmentally friendly, and harmless products to avoid causing damage to the bonsai.
3. Easy to dissolve and absorb: Fertilizers should be easy to dissolve and convenient for plants to absorb and utilize.
Common Fertilizers for Spring Bonsai1. Organic fertilizers: Such as chicken manure, cow dung, and soybean cakes. Organic fertilizers are rich in nutrients, which can promote plant growth and enhance ornamental value. However, attention should be paid to full fermentation during use to avoid burning the roots with raw fertilizer.
2. Inorganic fertilizers: Such as urea, diammonium phosphate, potassium sulfate, etc. Inorganic fertilizers have a quick effect but may lead to soil compaction if used for an extended period, affecting plant growth. They should be applied in moderation and combined with organic fertilizers.
3. Compound fertilizers: Such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate, compound fertilizers, etc. Compound fertilizers contain multiple nutrients and can fully meet the growth needs of plants. However, they are relatively expensive and should be chosen according to actual conditions.
4. Trace element fertilizers: Such as borax, zinc sulfate, ferrous sulfate, etc. Trace element fertilizers can supplement the trace elements needed for plant growth and improve disease resistance. However, attention should be paid to moderate application, as excess can lead to fertilizer damage.
Spring Bonsai Fertilization Methods1. Fertilization time: Spring is the vigorous growth period for Spring Bonsai. The frequency of fertilization can be increased appropriately, generally once a month. Fertilization time can be in the morning or evening.
2. Fertilization amount: Control the amount of fertilizer according to the size of the bonsai, growth condition, and type of fertilizer. Over-fertilization can cause fertilizer damage and affect plant growth.
3. Fertilization method: Fertilizer can be evenly sprinkled on the pot surface and then covered with fine soil to mix it thoroughly with the soil, or applied through drip irrigation, sprinkling, etc.
