Is it better to fertilize in the morning or in the evening?

Is it better to fertilize vegetables in the morning or at night? Experts have different answers. Today I will analyze in detail how to fertilize vegetables to achieve the best effect.

Fertilization of vegetables is mainly determined by the time period. Is it better to fertilize in the morning or in the evening?

Generally speaking, it is recommended to apply fertilizer in the morning in winter because the temperature is gradually rising, generally reaching its peak between 12:00 and 2:00 noon . This will not lower the ground temperature or damage the roots of vegetables, so it is recommended to apply fertilizer in the morning.

Vegetables grow faster in the summer and require more fertilizer and water. Fertilizer can be applied in the morning or evening to avoid the high temperature at noon .

We usually use drip irrigation to grow vegetables, dripping fertilizer directly into the soil. Fertilization at noon is too hot and can easily damage the roots of vegetables, so fertilizer can be applied in the morning and evening.

According to the watering and fertilizing process of vegetable planting in small vegetable gardens in recent years, the best time is around 8 am and after 3 pm, and avoid watering and fertilizing at noon.

At noon, the sun's radiation intensity is high and the ground temperature is high. If you suddenly pour cold water on it, the temperature difference will be large and the vegetables will not be able to adapt to the environment, which can easily affect their growth functions, burn seedlings and reduce yields.

While watering, dilute the fermented cake fertilizer and water the vegetables at the same time. Remember to keep the concentration of fertilizer and water low to avoid burning the roots and killing the seedlings.

There is a proverb among the common people that if you want crops to grow well, water and fertilizer are treasures. If you want vegetables to grow well, water and fertilizer are the key. Especially in summer, when the air evaporates, you need to water and fertilize every two or three days. As long as all kinds of vegetables are not short of water and fertilizer, they will have a high yield and a good harvest.

In fact, the timing of fertilizing vegetables is not that important. The key is the content and amount used in each period.

After all, too high a fertilizer concentration can cause root burn, and the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in fertilizers used in each growth period of vegetables is different.

Generally speaking, it is recommended to use balanced macronutrient water-soluble fertilizer during the young fruit stage. This can provide vegetables with balanced nutrients and allow them to grow, bloom and bear fruit quickly.

In the middle stage of fruit expansion, a small amount of high-nitrogen and high-potassium water-soluble fertilizer can be used to promote rapid expansion of the fruit.

In the later stages of vegetable growth, high-potassium, macro-element water-soluble fertilizers are generally used, which can promote the sweetening and coloring of fruits and improve quality.

I hope everyone can choose the time, content and amount of fertilization according to the actual growth conditions of vegetables.
