How long should I water the bougainvillea after fertilizing it? Is it okay to add some vinegar when watering?

1. How long should you water after fertilizing?

After fertilizing the bougainvillea, water it in time, usually waiting for an hour or two, or watering it the next morning. Watering can reduce the odor produced by fertilizer fermentation, and it can also provide water to the plants. The plants can also absorb nutrients better and faster, which is very helpful for their growth.

2. Is it okay to add vinegar to water?

Vinegar contains a lot of nutrients and organic substances, which can provide the nutrients necessary for plant growth. Bougainvillea is also an acid-loving plant. Adding vinegar to watering can adjust the pH value and provide a more suitable growth environment for it. However, it cannot be used directly for watering. It needs to be diluted with water in a ratio of 1:100 before it can be used for watering bougainvillea.

3. Precautions for fertilization and watering

1. When applying fertilizer, do not do it when the temperature is lower than 15 degrees or higher than 33 degrees. Once the temperature exceeds this limit, you need to stop fertilizing. In addition, when the plant is growing very weakly, do not apply fertilizer for the time being, otherwise it will grow even weaker.

2. When watering, do it slowly and don't water too much. You can water along the side of the flowerpot, and then stop when water flows out from the bottom of the flowerpot. If its roots are soaked in water, they will be easily damaged and rotted, so water it after the soil is dry.
