The correct response to fertilizer damage:
About the correct application of the base fertilizer for this month's rose: a small experience in plant cultivation, next, the editor will introduce.
Many of our flower friends make some minor mistakes in the process of raising roses, but sometimes a small mistake can harm the life of your rose plant!
Just the other day, a flower friend consulted such a question:
After buying it for a few days, severe yellowing of the leaves occurred. The first reaction after seeing the picture was fertilizer damage!
Then, the maintenance process was inquired, and it turned out that this flower friend added compound fertilizer as a base fertilizer when repotting the roses.
Some新手 flower friends might not understand why adding compound fertilizer as a base fertilizer causes fertilizer damage. Isn't it said that you should add base fertilizer when repotting roses?
Correct application of rose base fertilizer:
We say that when roses are repotted, it is best to add base fertilizer, but not all fertilizers can be used as base fertilizers.
The fertilizers that can be used as base fertilizers should be fertilizers with slow and long-lasting effects, such as fermented organic fertilizers, slow-release fertilizers, controlled-release fertilizers, and some water-insoluble inorganic fertilizers, such as potassium fertilizers and calcium fertilizers.
But the fertilizer this flower friend used was water-soluble fast-acting compound fertilizer.
Fast-acting fertilizers release their effects quickly. The newly repotted roses have already suffered some root damage. Using fast-acting fertilizers at this time is like adding insult to injury, naturally showing symptoms of fertilizer damage such as yellowing leaves and falling leaves.
The correct response to fertilizer damage:
When using fast-acting fertilizers causes fertilizer damage, if the fertilizer is shallowly buried, the soil where the fertilizer is shallowly buried should be dug out and replaced, and then a large amount of water should be used to water the roots.
If the fertilizer damage is caused by dissolving the fertilizer in water and watering the roots, a large amount of water should be used to water the roots directly.
What is watering the roots with a large amount of water?
Many flower friends do not understand the meaning of watering the roots with a large amount of water, resulting in situations where they water four or five times a day and continue to water the next day, which can easily cause root rot.
The correct understanding of watering the roots with a large amount of water should be: watering a large amount of water at once.
It actually means using a large amount of water to wash away the fertilizer in the soil, reducing the concentration of fertilizer in the soil, and thus alleviating fertilizer damage.
Therefore, it should be watering a large amount of water at once. For example, if usually only half a pot of water is needed for watering, when fertilizer damage occurs, five pots or even more water should be watered at once. Is this easy to understand?
The above is the complete introduction of the correct application of rose base fertilizer, the correct response to fertilizer damage, and what is watering the roots with a large amount of water, for everyone to learn and understand!
