What fertilizer is good for crabapple

Overview of Begonia Fertilization

Begonia is a common flower plant with elegant flowers and is known as the "national beauty". It prefers a cool, humid, semi-shady environment. The optimum temperature for its growth is 15-25℃. It is not resistant to high temperatures or shade and needs to be placed where the sun can shine.

After the crabapple flowers fade, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied. You can use some special fertilizers for crabapples on a daily basis and apply fertilizer appropriately according to the instructions. Loose, alkaline soil is required.

What fertilizer is good for crabapple flowers?

Fertilizing and watering the crabapple flowers at the same time is beneficial to their growth and helps the fertilizer to be effective. Try applying a thin layer of fertilizer once every 10 days or so, reduce or stop fertilizing in winter and summer, and apply a large amount of fertilizer once in autumn.

When fertilizing crabapples, use compound fertilizer as the main fertilizer, and add more phosphorus fertilizer during the flowering season. This can make the stems and branches of the crabapples thick and continue to provide sufficient nutrients for the growth of flowers.

How to fertilize Begonia

When fertilizing crabapples, you should follow the principle of applying thin fertilizers frequently. Do not apply concentrated fertilizers or raw fertilizers. Applying thin, decomposed liquid fertilizer 3 to 4 times a month will promote the growth of crabapples.

Spring fertilization

The crabapple blossom season is from April to May in spring. At this time, more phosphorus fertilizer needs to be applied to the plants to help the flowers bloom better and replenish the nutrients of the plants.

Summer and winter fertilization

Gradually reduce the amount of fertilizer in summer and winter. The temperature is low in winter and the crabapple flowers basically stop growing. If you apply fertilizer at this time, it will cause damage to the plant itself.

Fall Fertilization

The demand for fertilizer of crabapple flowers increases in autumn, so sufficient fertilizer needs to be applied at this time to enhance the flowers and trees' resistance to low temperatures, replenish the nutrients lost by the plants, and make the flowers and trees grow healthier.

Points to note when fertilizing crabapple

1. The leaves of crabapple are relatively sensitive to fertilizer, so you should be careful when fertilizing and not to drip fertilizer onto the leaves, otherwise it will burn the leaves and affect the beauty of the plant.

2. If the yellowing of crabapple leaves is caused by unreasonable amount of fertilizer, then increase or decrease the amount of fertilizer appropriately. If the cultivation temperature is not suitable, provide shade or increase the temperature appropriately.
