How to fertilize grape hyacinth

1. Time of fertilization

Generally, we apply fertilizer when spring comes. It has already started to sprout at this time. So we must remember to add fertilizer at this time. After it grows leaves, we use some nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer as supplements. We also need to dilute them before use, otherwise they will be too concentrated. This will promote its better development. However, you must not apply fertilizer when it is blooming, otherwise its flowers will wither early, so you must pay attention to this. We can also apply fertilizer appropriately in autumn, but when winter comes, it is time to pay urgent attention. Because the temperature is relatively low at this time, it does not need much fertilizer, so do not apply fertilizer or apply a small amount of fertilizer at this time.

2. Fertilizer concentration

Generally, for flowers and plants like this, the fertilizer required cannot be too concentrated. If it is too concentrated, it will easily burn its roots. Therefore, when applying fertilizer, you must dilute it before use. We can make the fertilizer thinner but apply it more frequently. Of course, if you are planting in a large pot, you can make the concentration a little thicker, but for a small pot, you need to make it a little lighter. But it should be appropriate and not too strong.

3. Fertilization tips

Before applying fertilizer, we can loosen the soil appropriately, and then be careful when burying the fertilizer in the pot to prevent the fertilizer from directly contacting the root system. Also, when applying fertilizer, be careful not to let the fertilizer fall on the leaves or flowers, otherwise the leaves will be damaged. Therefore, fertilizing also requires certain skills, so be sure to remember them. Or we can also apply fertilizer by adding water for irrigation. After fertilizing, we can just water it again the next morning. This method is also acceptable.
