Taboo of Fertilization in Floriculture

What should be paid attention to when applying fertilizer to flowers? What are the taboos?

First, fertilize the newly planted plants.

The root system of the newly planted plant has many wounds, and if it is stimulated by the outside world, the wound is not easy to heal, which will cause rotten roots and even lead to plant death.

Second, fertilize the sick and weak plants.

Diseased plants have weak growth, poor photosynthesis, slow metabolism and low ability to absorb fertilizer, so it is easy to cause fertilizer damage if you apply fertilizer casually.

Third, fertilizing at flowering stage.

Fertilization in the flowering stage will promote the vegetative growth of the plant, which is easy to cause overgrowth, resulting in bud drop and flower drop.

Fourth, fertilization during the dormant period.

Flowers stop or slow down their growth during the dormancy period. If fertilizer is applied, it will break the dormancy, promote the plant to continue to grow and affect the flowering in the coming year.

Fifth, fertilize under the root.

When planting flowers, the root system of the plant should not be placed directly on the base fertilizer, but a layer of soil should be added to the fertilizer, otherwise it is not only not conducive to the full absorption and utilization of fertilizer, but also easy to damage the root system. In addition, topdressing should be based on the growth of the plant, and the hole should be applied at the appropriate place from the root to facilitate the absorption of the root system.

Sixth, apply raw fertilizer.

The application of non-fully mature organic fertilizer to flowers will not only spread diseases and insect pests, but also ferment and heat and burn the roots of plants in the process of ripening.

Seventh, apply thick fertilizer.

To fertilize flowers, we must strictly control the amount of fertilizer application, avoid excessive concentration or dosage, otherwise it will burn the plant roots and cause death in serious cases, so we should apply thin fertilizer frequently.
