How to grow Epiphyllum seedlings? How long after planting can you fertilize the seedlings?

1. How to grow seedlings

When planting Epiphyllum seedlings, you need to choose a good flower pot first. Generally, a pot of about 30 cm will be sufficient. There should also be small holes at the bottom of the flowerpot to allow water to drain out in a timely manner. After preparing the potting soil, place the seedlings in the soil and plant them after the roots are stretched out. Do not expose it to the sun after planting, but expose it to a little light after it has adapted to the pot.

When growing Epiphyllum, the soil must be kept moist. It is not tolerant to waterlogging. Watering should be reduced when the temperature is relatively low, and the amount of water can be appropriately increased when the temperature is high. In addition, you can also use a small spray bottle to spray water on the plants, which can increase the amount of moisture in the air. And you should open the windows frequently, or place it directly in a ventilated place for maintenance.

2. How long can I fertilize the seedlings after planting?

Fertilizer can be applied about twenty days after the seedlings are planted. The fertilizer can be organic fertilizer, or fertilizer made from a mixture of rotten leaves and bone meal. When applying fertilizer, please note that the fertilizer must be diluted and should be applied around the plant, not too close to the roots, otherwise it will cause burns. Diluted fertilizer can promote the absorption of nutrients, and the amount of fertilizer applied should also be controlled to avoid root burn caused by excessive fertilizer. However, if there is too little fertilizer, the plant will grow weak.
