How to fertilize cyclamen

How to fertilize cyclamen

1. Liquid fertilizer

Because liquid fertilizer is a relatively commonly used type of flower fertilizer, many plants use it during their growth process. Generally it is mainly used for top dressing. The specific method is to mix it according to the proportion first, and then pour it directly into the pot. The amount of fertilizer to be poured into each pot needs to be determined according to the size of the pot. Generally speaking, 300 milliliters are needed for 15 centimeters and 500 milliliters are needed for 20 centimeters. In addition, the amount we apply should be enough to soak the flower soil but not enough to let it flow out, because otherwise it is likely to cause nutrient deficiency or loss.

2. Granular fertilizer

In addition to liquid fertilizers, we can also apply some granular fertilizers to it. Generally speaking, we need to use three grams of fertilizer for every kilogram of soil. Of course, it would also be better if we use it as top dressing. When using this kind of fertilizer, we must pay attention to the location of fertilization. We cannot apply it directly at the roots. The correct approach is to apply it at the edge of the pot or far away from the roots, because in this way its roots will not be injured due to contact with the fertilizer. In addition, we can apply fertilizer according to a certain ratio. If the pot is 15 cm, we can put 15 to 20 fertilizers in it. If it is 20 cm, we can put 20 to 25 fertilizers in it.

3. Foliar fertilization

In addition to some commonly used fertilizers, we also need to provide it with fertilizers containing trace elements, but we must be careful not to give it too high a concentration of fertilizer. Normally we just give it 0.1 or 0.3 percent fertilizer.

There are also requirements for the time of application. It needs to be done on a sunny day, preferably before ten in the morning. In addition, we need to keep the temperature around twenty degrees. If due to our own reasons or under some special circumstances, we can also change the time to after 4 o'clock, so that we can make the fertilizer effective and enable the roots of the plants to better absorb the fertilizer.
