Sprinkle some of it in the pot, and Bougainvillea and Kalanchoe will bloom without fertilizing!

Kalanchoe & fishy water, the buds keep popping up

The fishy water left over after washing fish at home is rich in phosphorus and potassium. Dilute it 50 times with water and water the flowers once a week, and the flower buds will soon emerge.

If you find it troublesome or don't have fish water at home, just spray some potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves of the Kalanchoe, dilute it 1000 times with water, and do it 2 to 3 times a month. The effect is also very good.

Note: If the Kalanchoe has no flower buds, you can try short-day treatment. From 6 pm to 8 am every day, cover the Kalanchoe with a black plastic bag, poke a few holes for ventilation, and you will see flower buds in about 4 weeks.

Clivia & bone meal, strong roots, green leaves, and many flower buds

Before Clivia blooms, it is necessary to apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Bone meal is a high-quality phosphorus fertilizer. Every 7 to 10 days, evenly sprinkle a layer of bone meal on the surface of the pot to effectively promote flowering and strengthen roots.

Note: Apply thin fertilizers frequently and rotate the flower pots frequently during daily maintenance to ensure even light.

Bougainvillea & eggshell powder, full of buds

Eggshell powder is an excellent phosphorus fertilizer. Before planting, mix the eggshell powder evenly into the soil. It will be absorbed and utilized every time you water, and the flowers will be brighter.

Every 15 days before flowering, spraying 1000 times diluted potassium dihydrogen phosphate or a compound fertilizer with a high phosphorus content on the leaves can effectively promote flower bud differentiation.

Christmas cactus & rice water, the branches are bent when it blooms

Rice water is rich in trace elements such as phosphorus and nitrogen. During the flower bud differentiation period of Christmas cactus, fully decomposed rice water should be diluted 10 times and then irrigated into the roots once every 10 days.

Note: After watering the flowers with rice water, you don’t need to water them again. Excessive watering will easily cause root rot and bud falling.

Chrysanthemum & bean cake fertilizer, large and colorful flowers

Bean cake fertilizer is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium and can be used as a compound fertilizer. Before the chrysanthemums bloom, sprinkle the fully decomposed bean cake fertilizer thinly on the surface of the flowerpot and turn over the topsoil to blend it in.

Note: 3 to 4 times a month is enough, apply thin fertilizer frequently, and water thoroughly 6 to 8 hours after fertilizing to facilitate absorption.

Osmanthus & pig manure, the fragrance spreads ten miles

As the saying goes, "If you want the sweet fragrance of osmanthus, prepare more pig manure tanks." Osmanthus likes pig manure fertilizer. Apply a thin layer of decomposed pig manure liquid once from the end of August to early September. Just once will be enough, and no fertilizer is needed until the end of the flowering period.

If you don’t have pig manure fertilizer, just bury a few grains of slow-release fertilizer on the edge of the potting soil, the effect is just as good.
