Fertilization methods and matters needing attention of Colored Leaf Grass

Although the demand for fertilizer is not high in the process of growth, it can not be completely without fertilization in breeding, otherwise it will have fewer leaves, yellowing and even withering because of lack of nutrition. So how to fertilize colourful leaf grass? Feel free to get to know it.

1. Fertilizer selection

When fertilizing colourleaf grass, we must first understand what kind of fertilizer it needs, first, base fertilizer, which can make the soil more fertile, and secondly, it needs nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which is the component of living cells of colourful leaf grass. Plants can not grow without nitrogen fertilizer. Phosphate fertilizer is one of the main nutrient elements to promote flowering, and it can also participate in photosynthesis, respiration and cell division, while potassium fertilizer and metabolic young fruit, so these three elements are indispensable.

2. Fertilization method

Base fertilizer should be applied in the basin, because it needs to be applied at the bottom of the soil, or mixed with the soil, generally mainly organic fertilizer and bone meal, it should be noted that the more base fertilizer, the better, the amount should be controlled at 1/10 of the soil. During the growing period, it is necessary to apply more fertilizer to promote plant growth and development. Nitrogen is a necessary nutrient element for any plant growth and development, and dilute nitrogen fertilizer is generally applied 1-2 times a month. Phosphate fertilizer can promote the flowering of colourful leaf grass, so phosphate fertilizer can be applied once before flowering and once after pruning, which can promote cell division and increase, which is beneficial to the growth and development of new branches.

3. Matters needing attention in fertilization

Although nitrogen fertilizer can promote the growth and development of colourful leaf grass, it should not be applied too much, generally every 15-20 days, and should be diluted with water, otherwise thick fertilizer will lead to root rot and death in serious cases. If fertilization is to spread fertilizer directly on the basin soil, then it needs to be properly watered and thoroughly after fertilization, so that both the upper and lower layers of the soil can be moist, reduce the high concentration on the soil surface, and allow the fertilizer to enter the soil as soon as possible. it can be absorbed and utilized by the root system.

The above is the introduction of fertilization methods and matters needing attention. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please follow us.
