What fertilizer to use for Begonia

1. Nutritional requirements

1. Nitrogen

There is no doubt that it needs nitrogen, because most flowers need fertilizers containing this element. During its seedling period, we can give it more nitrogen fertilizer so that its branches and leaves will grow better.

2. Phosphorus

Phosphorus is also essential, and it mainly plays a role during the flowering period. This kind of fertilizer should be applied when the plant begins to form flower buds, because this will make it have more flowers and make its flowers more colorful. If a flower lacks water, it may wither and die prematurely.

2. Available flower fertilizers

1. Bean cake

During its growing season, we need to fertilize it every ten days or half a month, and the specific fertilizer can be bean cake water, but it needs to be a fermented product, and the concentration is 20%.

2. Human and poultry feces

In addition to purchased fertilizers, we can also use natural fertilizers, such as the feces of chickens and ducks raised at home, or human feces and urine as fertilizer. Of course, we need to pay attention that this kind of thing cannot be poured on the plants casually. We need to wait for it to decompose, otherwise it will easily cause damage to the plants.

3. Cake fertilizer water

This kind of fertilizer is also indispensable. If our plants are older, we can use this kind of fertilizer after they bloom, which can encourage them to bloom again. Of course, at this time we need to use a fertilizer-water ratio of one to five, once a week for two consecutive weeks.
