When to fertilize asparagus fern, how to fertilize asparagus fern

1. Fertilization time

1. Spring: Spring is the stage when it starts to grow and grows vigorously. During this period, it is necessary to apply sufficient fertilizer to it to ensure that it has enough nutrients needed for growth. It can be applied once every half a month to twenty days.

2. Summer: The temperature in this season is very high, and its growth will become slow, or even enter a dormant period. It is necessary to reduce the amount of fertilizer or stop fertilizing.

3. Autumn: Autumn is the same as spring. The growth is more vigorous during this period. Apply nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer or liquid fertilizer to it.

4. Winter: The temperature is relatively low in winter, so there is no need to apply much fertilizer. Just apply a little liquid fertilizer every month to ensure that there is a supply of nutrients after the winter.

2. How to fertilize

When fertilizing asparagus fern, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer is the best. Of course, liquid fertilizer is also acceptable and is easier for the plant to absorb. Increasing the amount of nitrogen fertilizer before flowering can promote flower bud differentiation and make the flowers more colorful. However, do not apply too much fertilizer during the flowering period. Once in May and June, and once in September and October is enough. Applying too much fertilizer will cause yellow leaves, excessive growth, etc.
