The role of succulent base fertilizerAlthough succulents do not have very high requirements for fertilizer under normal circumstances, they still need sufficient nutrition to continue to grow, especially base fertilizer, which can provide nutrients to succulents for a long time and promote its growth. Selection of succulent fertilizerWhen planting succulents, it is generally necessary to mix base fertilizer into the soil. The base fertilizer can be slow-release fertilizer, organic fertilizer, cake fertilizer, bone meal, etc. This type of fertilizer can slowly provide nutrients for succulents. As long as the dosage is controlled well, direct contact with the root system will not cause fertilizer damage. When repotting succulents, the new nutrient soil can basically guarantee the nutritional supply of succulents. If you want the succulents to grow better, fertilizing the new pot is a good time to do so. You can mix some bone meal, eggshell powder, and organic fertilizer into the nutrient soil as base fertilizer. How to apply succulent base fertilizerIt is relatively simple to apply base fertilizer to succulents. Just dig a spoonful of fertilizer and bury it in the soil away from the roots. Generally, the depth should be kept below two centimeters. At this time, with the combined effects of daily watering and light, it can be continuously decomposed by microorganisms and converted into nutrients for the growth of succulents. How to apply base fertilizer to succulent plantsSucculents need to be fertilized in time during their growth process. If you want to apply solid fertilizer, you need to bury the fertilizer in the soil, but keep it away from the roots. Liquid fertilizer is directly irrigated to the roots and can generally replace watering. Foliar fertilizer is sprayed directly on the leaves and can also be quickly absorbed. |
