Can you spray fertilizer during the orchid potted period?

Many people will have such a question, that is, can orchids spray fertilizer during the potted period? In fact, experienced people will think that orchids cannot be fertilized at all during the potted period, so we must not fertilize orchids in the potted period because they are out of control for a moment. This result must not be good. But there are many people do not understand, why can not fertilize?

Orchids in the potted period are adapting to the new growth environment. The roots of orchids do not fit perfectly with the soil. They are both adapting to each other. At this time, if we fertilize the orchid, then the fertilizer will only exist in the soil and will not be absorbed by the orchid. If we have more fertilizer at home, then the orchid may burn roots in a nutrient environment with too high concentration. Therefore, it must not be fertilized during the orchid pot period.

We usually choose the time to fertilize the orchid during the growing period or before and after the orchid blossoms. When the orchid is in the growing period, it needs more nutrients. At this time, we can apply fertilizer to it to supplement nutrients in time and help it grow. Fertilizing orchids before and after flowering is also helpful to orchids blooming.

When we fertilize the orchid, we must pay attention to the full fermentation when we apply organic fertilizer, otherwise it will cause the fertilizer to ferment in the basin and emit a lot of heat, which will cause the orchid to burn roots.

In the application of fertilizer is also very important for its choice, we apply fertilizer is to add phosphorus and potassium to orchids, so the application of fertilizer contains these elements must be balanced, can not be biased towards any kind of element. And before applying fertilizer, be sure to read the fertilizer manual to see if some fertilizers are suitable for orchids.
