What kind of fertilizer is good for growing flowers and plants?
A comprehensive introduction to the best fertilizers for flowers and plants, and using these "3 types" is enough knowledge about flowers. Next, the site editor will introduce to the netizens.
For potted flowers at home, planting flowers in a pot means limited soil and nutrients. It is impossible to supply continuous growth and flowering. Therefore, we need to fertilize it regularly. How should we choose and mix fertilizers to ensure no problems and make them grow well with more flowers?
We all know that the main components of fertilizer are three elements: nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, as well as other trace elements. Nitrogen fertilizer promotes the growth of branches and leaves, potassium fertilizer promotes the rapid growth of roots and aging of branches, and phosphorus fertilizer promotes plant maturity and the differentiation of flower buds for flowering. So we choose fertilizers based on different growth properties of plants.
For example, if the plant we raise is mainly for leaf appreciation and we don't want it to bloom, it won't bloom and will only grow leaves. We choose fertilizers with high nitrogen content and no lack of other elements. With high nitrogen content, it will grow branches and leaves rapidly, and since there is no lack of other elements, the roots can also grow and absorb nutrients quickly without any problems. There are many such fertilizers available, and the packaging of the fertilizers we buy always shows the content of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. We just need high nitrogen content and the presence of other elements. The most common one is "Huaduo No.10", including our own fermented fertilizer made from soybean cake and peanut cake, which is also high in nitrogen. These are all excellent foliage fertilizers.
For flowering plants, we also need to make reasonable choices because flowering requires a sufficient amount of phosphorus. For plants that bloom only once a year, we start using phosphorus-potassium fertilizers such as monopotassium phosphate before their blooming period. Monopotassium phosphate alone is fine because it contains only phosphorus and potassium. Ensure it is applied 2-3 times a month to provide adequate phosphorus, which will promote the rapid differentiation of flower buds and growth of flower buds. It can produce enough flower buds at once for a full bloom. Continue using phosphorus-potassium fertilizers until the flowers are about to open.
What kind of fertilizer is good for growing flowers and plants?
If you are raising plants that bloom continuously throughout the year, such as茉莉花 (Jasmine),米兰 (Michelia), and 三角梅 (Bougainvillea), never use monopotassium phosphate because it only contains phosphorus and potassium and lacks other elements. Long-term use without other elements can cause yellow leaves and stunted growth. When choosing fertilizers, select those with high phosphorus content and no lack of other elements. The purchased fertilizers' packaging will show the content of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, including the known trace elements. As long as the phosphorus content is high, it is an excellent fertilizer for plants that bloom throughout the year. The most common one is "Huaduo No.2". Using this continuously throughout the year ensures sufficient phosphorus without lacking other elements, allowing for continuous growth and flowering, and each bloom can be spectacular.
Flower cultivation is inseparable from fertilizers, and the method of choosing fertilizers is also very simple. If you don't want to buy fertilizers, you can make them at home. Soybean cake, peanut cake, and other fertilizers are high in nitrogen, suitable for leafy plants. For flowering plants, we can use fermented materials such as fish scales, fish bones, and pork bones, which are high in phosphorus and potassium and are also very good for flowering plants. However, fermenting fertilizers at home can produce an odor. If you are outdoors, you can use them, but if you are indoors, it's best to buy ready-made fertilizers and apply them directly to avoid polluting the air. By choosing different fertilizers for different plants, you can ensure that the flowers are well cared for, grow well, and do not have yellow leaves or other problems.
