What fertilizer to use for the fortune tree and the correct way to fertilize it

1. What fertilizer to use

When fertilizing the money tree, nitrogen fertilizer is generally used as the main fertilizer, because it is a foliage plant. The fertilizers used include compound fertilizer, cake fertilizer, and you can also use fermented rice water. However, you cannot only apply nitrogen fertilizer to it, but also need to add appropriate amounts of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, so that the plant can grow stronger and the leaves will be greener.

2. Fertilization method

When the plant is in the growth period, it needs to be fertilized once every 10-15 days to provide it with the nutrients it needs for growth. Fertilization should be applied frequently and in small amounts, preferring sparse fertilizer to dense fertilizer. Only in this way can the plant's needs for nutrients be met. When repotting, you can also add a little organic fertilizer or farmyard manure to the potting soil. If you are applying solid fertilizer to it, the method is to dig a few small holes next to the roots of the plant and then put the fertilizer in.

3. Precautions for fertilization

1. If you use liquid fertilizer to fertilize the money tree, you need to be careful when applying the fertilizer and do not apply the fertilizer on the branches and leaves.

2. If excessive fertilizer is applied, it needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. Watering can be used to remove the excess fertilizer. If the situation is serious, you need to remove the pot and clean the plant roots, and then replace the old soil.
