Last Updated: 2024/09/20, Rhododendron is a fertilizer-loving plant, which needs not only nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other main nutrient elements, but also boron: copper, molybdenum, zinc and other trace elements. Azaleas should use fertilizers with mild fertility and long fertilizer efficiency. Household cuckoos can use horns, sheep horns and animal hoof slices, which contain 12% 15% nitrogen and 0.2% phosphorus, as well as a small amount of potassium and trace elements. The thin hoof piece can be effective after 1 month, the thick hoof horn can be seen after 2 months, and the fertility can be maintained for 6 Mel for 8 months. When in use, it can be combined with changing the basin and pouring the basin to bury the hoof into the edge or bottom of the basin.

Rhododendron is a fertile plant, in addition to nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other major nutrients, but also need boron: copper, molybdenum, zinc and other trace elements. Azalea should use fertilizer with moderate fertility and long fertilizer effect. Cattle horns, sheep horns and animal hooves can be used for raising azaleas at home. These fertilizers contain nitrogen 12%~15%, phosphorus 0.2%~8%, and also contain a small amount of potassium and trace elements. The thin hoof can be effective after 1 month, and the thick hoof can be effective after 2 months, and the fertility can be maintained for 6-8 months. When in use, the hoof can be buried into the edge or bottom of the basin in combination with changing the basin and pouring the basin. Cake fertilizer is also a more comprehensive fertilizer nutrition, cake fertilizer nutrients generally contain nitrogen 2.1%-7.6%, phosphorus 0.54%-3.3%, potassium 05%-2.7%, generally speaking, bean cake, peanut nitrogen higher, rapeseed cake, cottonseed cake and other phosphorus more. Fermented well before application. Manure made from animal dung and leaves can be mixed with human culture soil in pots.

Different azaleas have different fertilizer requirements. In Dandong, the azalea varieties, such as Sihaibo, Shuanghuahong and Toad Peony, need less fertilizer; Fairy Dance, Wubaozhu and Fugui Ji are more resistant to fertilizer; Big Leaf Azalea is more resistant to fertilizer.

Rhododendron fertilization should be in line with the principle of thin and frequent application. Fertilization is generally carried out in spring and autumn growth peak period, and winter is generally not fertilized. Flowering plants in spring in March and April when the pot application of a hoof or manure, May and June application of 1 - 2 times cake or hoof fertilizer, rainy season can be fermented cake fertilizer powder scattered on the pot surface and topsoil mix. Apply a thicker liquid fertilizer again in autumn. Generally 20 cm diameter flowerpots, vigorous growth of plants throughout the year with fertilizer for about 100 grams of bean cake fertilizer.
