What kind of fertilizer is good for gentleman orchids?
It is about to enter May, and it is also the critical period of Magnolia. Why do we talk about the critical period of Magnolia? Because summer is coming, summer magnolia is in a dormant state, slow growth, if you do not control well in summer, it will lead to the death of rotten roots.
What kind of fertilizer is best for it now? Now you can bury some fermented sheep dung in the pot soil. Sheep dung is a kind of multi-element fertilizer, which is fermented and buried in the basin soil and covered with one or two centimeters of thick soil. every time it is watered, the nutrients in the sheep dung will gradually infiltrate into the whole basin soil along the water. there is no lack of nutrients in the whole basin soil, the root system can absorb enough multi-element nutrients, the plant grows healthily, the leaves are thick and green, and it enters its dormant period in summer. As long as you keep the basin soil slightly moist, it will be able to survive the summer.
So, it is May, now is the key period for gentleman orchid, summer should be less watering, not fertilizing. Now hurry to replenish it with fertilizer, some sheep dung can be buried in the basin soil, and then we will give it a multi-element fertilizer and a balanced nutrient supplement, so that it does not lack all elements, the plant is strong, and the root system is well developed. it won't be safe until summer.
In the autumn, we are going to replenish it with fertilizer. The first time to supplement fertilizer or choose to use multi-element fertilizer on the line, the so-called multi-element fertilizer, is a balance of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Then enter its growth stage, give it three or four times a month of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, phosphorus and potassium-based fertilizer, we can directly use potassium dihydrogen phosphate, why give it to it? It is to effectively promote it to differentiate flower buds and blossom. If you sprinkle some multi-element slow-release fertilizer on the surface of the potted soil, you can also bury some sheep dung for it, so as to replenish it evenly until its bud comes out completely, and the foil grows taller and stops fertilizing when it is about to bloom.
Winter is the season for its flowering. Cut off the flowers in time after the flowers are finished. After the temperature rises in spring, we go to replenish the fertilizer and choose nitrogen-based fertilizers to promote it to grow more leaves quickly, and the leaves grow more, big and thick. Give it three or four times a month until May comes, and then fertilize it according to Xiao Qi's method.
If you want your gentleman orchid's long leaves to be big and thick, dark in color and well-developed root system, you can do so according to Xiao Qi's words. I'm sure you have no problem raising magnolia. It is not difficult to have long leaves in the growing season and arrows to blossom in the flowering season.
