Can fertilizer water be used to water flowers directly? How to use it correctly?

Fertilizer water directly watering flowers

Fertilizer water cannot be used directly to water flowers, because the concentration of fertilizer in chemical fertilizer water is too high. Pouring it directly on the flowers will cause changes in the nutrients in the soil and will not be conducive to the absorption of flowers. Flowers cannot absorb fertilizer water or cannot get nutrients evenly, which will affect their growth.

The pros and cons of watering flowers with fertilizers and water

Fertilizer water contains three nutrients: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, which can effectively promote the germination and flowering of flowers , promote leaf growth , accelerate the maturity of flowers, and increase the number of flowers blooming.

If we use chemical fertilizer water to water the flowers, we must pay attention to the risk of root burn . Chemical fertilizer water has a strong fertility, so the amount needs to be controlled, otherwise it will accumulate in the flowerpot and cause root burn.

Method of watering flowers with fertilizer and water

Fertilizer water can be used to water flowers after being dissolved in water, but attention should be paid to the ratio and concentration of the water. A high concentration of fertilizer water is not conducive to the growth of flowers. The ratio of water to fertilizer is generally 1000:1.

If the soil is relatively moist, you can add more water to dilute it. Fertilization can generally be done in the evening. It is best not to do it during the hot noon, otherwise it will easily cause root burn.
