In the process of growing flowers at home, improper fertilization can easily cause fertilizer damage, and once it occurs, it is difficult to recover. It not only affects the normal growth of potted plants but can also directly lead to the withering and death of the plants.
Therefore, for fertilizer damage to potted plants, we should focus on prevention rather than trying to save them after the damage has occurred.
So how can we prevent the occurrence of fertilizer damage?
To prevent fertilizer damage, it is recommended to remember the following 5 points
1. Do not use raw fertilizer
Many people like to use raw fertilizers such as rice washing water and aquarium water to fertilize potted plants, but this is a big taboo in fertilization.
Raw fertilizers produce heat during fermentation, and if the concentration of the fertilizer is high and the heat produced is abundant, it is very easy to cause fertilizer damage.
Moreover, some pest problems can also occur during fermentation. Therefore, do not use raw fertilizers for top dressing potted plants, as it carries a high risk.
2. Do not use concentrated fertilizer

There is a feeling called, "Look three times a day, but the flowers do not bloom," so people put in more fertilizer. The instructions clearly state to dilute 3000 times, but they only dilute it to 500 times, thinking of giving more to make the flowers grow faster, and then the leaves turn yellow after watering.
Concentrated fertilizer can cause significant damage to potted plants, leading to direct injury to the plant's roots and manifesting on the leaves. In severe cases, it can cause the potted plants to wither.
Green Plant Enthusiast Network suggests that when fertilizing, the concentration ratio should be lower than the one specified in the instructions. It is better to apply a lighter fertilizer more times than to give concentrated fertilizer, to avoid regretting it later.
3. Do not fertilize during the resting period
