Do the newly planted longevity flower seedlings need to be fertilized?

Longevity flowers mostly adopt cutting means to propagate, and for family potted users, it is most suitable to adopt branch cutting method. Although it can also be propagated by leaf insertion, it is often too slow to germinate and is not suitable for individual potted users. When the cuttings burst a lot of small leaves, we can transplant them into the pot.

Generally speaking, only novice friends will raise this question. It is thought that for potted friends with rich planting experience, it is usually clear when to fertilize the longevity flower seedlings after transplanting. There is no doubt that the newly planted longevity flower can not be fertilized, mainly because its root system is too fragile, especially in the slow seedling period, when fertilization only does harm and does no good.

If we fertilize it prematurely, it is not only unable to absorb it, but also easy to cause fertilizer damage, directly damaging its immature roots, thus killing the newly planted longevity flower seedlings, and the consequences are more serious. And at this time is not suitable for frequent watering, even if the seedling basin, but also to do a good watering management. Of course, after taking the basin, you can't wait until the pot soil is dry before watering, because the longevity flowers in the small seedling stage should be watered in a timely and appropriate amount.

But after taking the pot smoothly, the seedlings will keep growing rapidly, the ones that take root will take root quickly, the ones that sprout will sprout faster, and those with long leaves will grow quickly. Although its root system is young, it is constantly consuming nutrients at this time, and the nutrients in the basin can only maintain its basic survival needs and can not meet its long-term growth needs.

Therefore, when the newly planted longevity flower seedlings take the pot and return to normal growth, we need to consider giving it some fertilizer. But we must be careful in the choice of fertilizer, generally we can give it some nutrient solution or mature organic fertilizer solution, so that thin fertilizer can be applied frequently, so as to meet the nutrient needs of rapid seedling growth.

Therefore, we must have a clear understanding of whether the newly planted longevity flowers need to be fertilized or fertilized, otherwise the plants may die quickly because of fertilization too early or the concentration is too high, thus causing unnecessary losses to us. If you are a novice, you would rather apply fertilizer later or less than apply fertilizer too early or too much blindly.
