How to water and fertilize the butterfly flower

How to water the butterfly flower

When we water the moth and butterfly flower, we must pay attention to the principle of "watering when dry and watering when wet". This principle means that after watering the moth flower once, we should wait until the soil gradually dries up before watering it a second time. The benefit of watering in this way is that it can control the growth of the moth and butterfly flower, make the moth and butterfly flower more cold-resistant, and survive the winter smoothly. It can also prevent the moth and butterfly flower from diseases to a certain extent.

We should water the moth and butterfly flower more when it is just sprouting and growing vigorously, and water it less when it starts to grow flower buds. If we want to prevent the leaves of the moth flower from growing too long, we can water it less appropriately.

How to fertilize the butterfly flower

The moth flower does not require a lot of fertilizer. Generally, we can apply fertilizer to the moth flower once every ten days. During the period from the germination to the vigorous growth of the moth flower, we should apply some nitrogen fertilizer to the moth flower to make its stems and leaves grow more luxuriantly.

In the middle and late stages, especially when the moth and butterfly flowers are about to bloom, some phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied to make the flowers grow better.

During the vigorous growth period of the moth and butterfly flower, the concentration of the fertilizer applied can be slightly higher, while the concentration of the fertilizer applied during the germination, growth and flowering period of the moth and butterfly flower should be slightly dilute.
