Which vegetables are suitable for compound fertilizer? What kind of fertilizer is good for vegetables?

Compound fertilizer is a fertilizer containing multiple nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc., which plays an important role in promoting vegetable growth and increasing yield. However, when using compound fertilizer to grow vegetables, you need to pay attention to the correct usage method. So which vegetables are suitable for compound fertilizer? What kind of fertilizer is good for vegetables? Let’s take a look below.

1. Which vegetables are suitable for compound fertilizer?

1. Suitable types of vegetables

Generally, compound fertilizer can be used reasonably on vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, celery, and zucchini .

2. How to use compound fertilizer?

(1) Eggplant: Autumn and winter eggplant is usually planted in mid-to-late August, overwintering eggplant is usually planted in late October to early November, and winter and spring eggplant is usually planted in December. At the time of planting, organic fertilizer can be applied in combination with tillage and land preparation, and compound fertilizer (45% content) can be spread at 80-100 kg/mu.

(2) Tomatoes: Autumn and winter tomatoes are usually planted in early to mid-September, while overwintering tomatoes are usually planted in late October to early November. When planting, you can generally spread compound fertilizer (45% content) at 70-100 kg/mu, and apply organic fertilizer appropriately in combination with tillage and land preparation.

(3) Celery: Usually, you can combine tillage and land preparation with the proper application of organic fertilizers during planting. Spread compound fertilizer (45% content) at 70-80kg/mu, or 40% content at 80-100kg, and spread borax at 1-1.5kg.

(4) Cucumber: Autumn and winter crops are generally planted in early September, overwintering crops are generally planted in early November, and winter and spring crops are generally planted in late January. When planting, organic fertilizers can generally be applied in combination with tillage and land preparation, and compound fertilizers (45% content) can be spread at 60-80kg/mu.

(5) Zucchini: Autumn and winter crops can generally be planted in mid-January, overwintering crops can generally be planted in early November, and winter and spring crops can generally be planted in mid-December. When planting, you can generally combine tillage and land preparation with the application of organic fertilizers and spread 30-50 kg of compound fertilizer (45% content).

2. What kind of fertilizer is good for vegetables?

1. Before planting

(1) Before planting vegetables, deep plowing is generally required, and well-rotted cow dung, chicken manure, etc. should be mixed into the soil as base fertilizer.

(2) After fertilizer is applied, it provides vegetables with the nutrients they need for growth and generally improves soil fertility.

2. Early growth period

(1) In the early stages of vegetable growth, a small amount of fertilizer can generally be applied, with some compound fertilizer being appropriate.

(2) It should be noted that for leafy vegetables, attention should be paid to the application of nitrogen fertilizer, the purpose of which is to promote the growth of branches and leaves.

3. Resulting period

(1) Before vegetables bloom and bear fruit, it is generally possible to apply appropriate amounts of organic fertilizer.

(2) It should be noted that the sources of organic fertilizers are generally quite broad. In addition to decomposed human and animal feces, there are also various residues, rice washing water (fermented), etc.

That’s it
