How to fertilize colorful pineapple

The need for fertilizer

Let’s talk about the soil first. It likes to grow in fertile soil. In other words, it requires a lot of nutrition. Then, its demand for fertilizer will be correspondingly higher. It would be fine if the soil is better, but if the soil does not contain many nutrients, then fertilizing will be of great significance to the plants.

Treatment at different stages

The first is the peak period of plant growth, which is spring, summer and autumn. The treatment during this period is similar, applying compound fertilizer or liquid fertilizer once every half a month or so, and it is better to spray it on the leaves.

In addition to the above fertilization, if the plant blooms during this period, it is necessary to apply fertilizer mainly containing P element. We all know that this element helps make the colors of flowers more vivid and beautiful. However, be careful to stop applying it after flowering.

We are generally more clear about winter treatment because the temperature is low and the plants do not grow much and do not have much demand for nutrients, so there is no need to apply any fertilizers.

Precautions

If you adopt the method of foliar fertilization, you must pay attention to the concentration not being too high. Generally, we will control it to about one-third of the root fertilizer. This is because if the fertilizer concentration is too high, it will accumulate in the stems of the plant and then harm its leaves.

Pay attention to different nutrients in different periods and do not use the same fertilizer in every period.

Because we said above that it likes potting soil rich in nutrients, we can choose leaf mold or peat soil, these two types of soil are more suitable.
