How to fertilize lavender potted plants

1. Appropriate amount of time

Before fertilizing, you must choose the appropriate time to fertilize. When it is in the growth period, because it is longer, during the whole period, although it can tolerate a little barrenness and drought, it cannot be allowed to lack nutrients, otherwise the plant will develop slowly and the amount of flowering will be less. In addition, when it is still a seedling, it is necessary to apply base fertilizer to the soil and apply appropriate top dressing before flowering, and then no more fertilizer is needed after flowering.

2. Choose the right fertilizer

When fertilizing it, be sure to choose the right fertilizer. In addition, when fertilizing it, you can choose special fertilizer for flowers, which is not only convenient to use, but also can give it more nutrients and make the leaf color become beautiful.

3. Master fertilization skills

During fertilization, fertilizer should be applied according to the size of each plant. When applying fertilizer, do not apply too much at one time or use fertilizer with too high concentration, otherwise it will burn its roots, and in severe cases, the plant will die. Therefore, the fertilizer should be applied thinly. For 1 to 2 year old seedlings, more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be used, so that the seedlings can grow strong. For seedlings that have grown for more than 3 years, more nitrogen fertilizer and phosphorus fertilizer should be applied, but not too much potassium fertilizer, otherwise it will affect the essential oil yield. In addition, when applying, it can be combined with watering, and the effect will be better.
