What kind of fertilizer does Clivia like: What is the base fertilizer? Can I pour beer and use eggs?

1. Fertilizer

It is a plant that likes fertilizer, but what kind of fertilizer it likes depends on the growing season. The fertilizer it likes in each season is different. Spring and autumn are the peak growing seasons. At this time, nitrogen fertilizer should be applied mainly in small amounts and frequently, combined with a small amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. The climate is hot in summer. When the temperature is too high and exceeds 25 degrees, stop fertilizing. When it is below 25 degrees, you can apply thin liquid fertilizer to shorten the dormancy period. When the temperature is too low in winter and below 10 degrees Celsius, stop fertilizing.

2. Base Fertilizer

Base fertilizer is the fertilizer spread on the bottom of the pot and can be applied every time you repot. The main thing is to choose organic fertilizer and decomposed farmyard manure, so that the Clivia can grow better. If unfermented fertilizer is applied, it will burn its roots and seriously affect its growth.

3. Can I pour beer over eggs?

It is okay to water Clivia with beer and eggs, as they contain carbon dioxide, which is very beneficial to its growth. But please note that it must be diluted with water before watering and cannot be used directly, otherwise it will cause harm. Also, please note that this is not a substitute for watering, nor should it be applied too frequently; once or twice a month is sufficient.
