Oil cake as fertilizer

Oil cake can be used as fertilizer, but no matter what kind of oil cake it is, it cannot be used directly. It must be decomposed and fermented before use. Pay attention to the principle of applying it lightly and frequently, and the amount used each time should not be too much.

There are many plants that can use oil cake fertilizer, the most common ones are bougainvillea, lucky tree, money tree, Christmas cactus, Schefflera, orchid, Kalanchoe, lucky tree, etc.

How to make oil cake as fertilizer

1. The oil cake can be mixed with rice bran in a ratio of 4:6, and then 100 times the original dew liquid is poured in, and an appropriate amount of water is added to stir evenly, keeping the water content at about 30%. After sealing the container, the fermentation will be completed in about 2-4 months.

2. The oil cake fertilizer needs to be diluted before use after fermentation. The cake fertilizer water can be directly poured on the soil surface. This can promote rapid absorption by the plant, which is beneficial to the growth of the plant and can promote its flowering.

Key points for using oil cake fertilizer

If oil cake is used as fertilizer, it must be fully fermented and decomposed before use, because incompletely fermented oil cake will generate heat in the flower pot and burn the roots and seeds, and the microorganisms inside can only react with each other to produce fertilizer effects after fermentation.
