Clivia has a lot of skills in applying fertilizer. Here are a few points for you:

Clivia like fertilizer, we must do the right amount of fertilizer, such as improper or excessive fertilization, adverse growth, and even become a plant rotten roots or scorched. Clivia has different nutrient requirements in different growth stages. Therefore, different fertilization methods are adopted at various stages. Such as base fertilizer, topdressing, root fertilization, etc.

Base fertilizer: The purpose is to create conditions for plant growth and development to meet its nutrient needs. Clivia fertilizer should be applied every 2 years when the pot change. Apply common manure (livestock manure), compost, green manure, bean cake manure, etc. into the soil.

Topdressing: mainly to promote the growth of plants. Yiye fertilizer is mainly used, and less is applied for the first planting. Later, with the growth of plants and the increase of leaves, the amount of fertilizer is gradually increased. When fertilizing, the pot soil can be peeled open and applied into the soil 2-3 cm deep. However, attention should be paid to that the fertilizer should not be too close to the root system to avoid burning the root system. Spraying a new lipid membrane on the surface of the plant can prevent the infection of germs, improve the ability to resist natural disasters, improve the photosynthesis intensity, and protect the seedlings from thriving.

Topdressing outside the roots: Fertilization in this way is mainly to make up for the lack of nutrients in the soil to solve the problem of lack of fertilizer in the plant body, so that seedlings grow fast and flowers and fruits grow fat. External-root fertilization is to spray the fertilizer diluent directly on the leaves of plants with a sprayer, so that nutrients penetrate into the tissues of leaves through the epidermal cells and stomata of leaves and then transfer to the whole body of plants. When spraying, spray evenly on both sides of the leaves. It is advisable to stop applying fertilizer immediately after flowering. It must be noted that this method can only be used if the plant is found to be deficient in fertilizer. If the plant nutrition is sufficient and the growth is vigorous, it is not suitable to use it. Spraying Flower Zhuangdiling at the bud stage can promote strong buds, hypertrophy of petals, gorgeous colors, rich floral fragrance and prolonged flowering period.
