How to prepare soil for azalea

1. Soil requirements

1. Loose and breathable: Using loose and breathable soil to grow azaleas can ensure that the roots of the plant can breathe smoothly in the soil, carry out normal physiological activities, and provide nutrients for the whole flower.

2. Rich in nutrients: Its growth cannot be separated from nutritional support. Choosing soil with a higher nutrient content can ensure that it has sufficient nutrients for growth and prevent it from malnutrition.

3. Weakly acidic soil: It prefers weakly acidic soil and will grow poorly in alkaline soil. In order to ensure that it can grow well, it is best to provide it with soil with a pH between 5.5-6.5.

2. Recommended soil

1. First of all, I recommend that you use special soil for azaleas. This soil is specially formulated by the manufacturer based on the growth habits of the plants. It can meet the various needs of plant growth and ensure the healthy growth of the plants.

2. Secondly, I recommend you to use leaf mold. It is slightly acidic, rich in nutrients, and relatively loose, which can meet the plant's soil requirements.

3. Notes

1. Do not use heavy soil. These soils often have poor air permeability, which will hinder the plants from breathing.

2. The nutrient content in the soil can be increased by applying basal fertilizer.
