How to fertilize cockscomb

Fertilizer requirement

First, let’s talk about the growth characteristics of cockscomb, so that you can have a clear idea when applying fertilizer. Cockscomb is a plant that likes sunlight and cannot grow in soil with too much water. It cannot tolerate cold, and high temperature and dryness are the most suitable growing conditions. Although cockscomb does not require much fertilizer, fertilizer can make it grow more vigorously.

Fertilizer selection

When fertilizing cockscomb, you must pay attention to the rational use of fertilizers. It is generally recommended to use flower fertilizers, and chemical fertilizers are not recommended. Today, the editor recommends a fertilizer that is very suitable for cockscomb. It is Ruifeng Flower Special Fertilizer. This fertilizer has relatively uniform and comprehensive nutrition, and it contains a variety of physiological and metabolic active substances secreted by rich beneficial microorganisms. Applying this fertilizer can help cockscomb maintain sufficient nutrients during the growing period, make it grow taller, increase the number of leaves, extend the flowering period, make the flowers brighter, and the leaves greener.

Fertilization method

Before planting cockscomb, some base fertilizer should be applied to the soil to lay a solid foundation for the later growth of cockscomb. No fertilizer is needed in the early stage of planting cockscomb, but phosphorus fertilizer needs to be applied once a week, and then every 10 days. It should be noted that during this period, cockscomb must be given more sunlight, which can promote the healthy growth of cockscomb and produce large inflorescences.

After the cockscomb buds are formed, the frequency of fertilization needs to be increased, generally liquid fertilizer is applied once a week. This way, the cockscomb will bloom more and larger, and the color of the flowers will be brighter. However, after the seeds mature, less fertilizer should be applied. This will help the seeds mature and keep the flower colors rich for a long time.

Okay, that’s all for today’s topic. I wish all your flower lovers’ cockscombs will bloom more beautifully!
