How to fertilize Jade Plant

The plant's fertilizer requirements

In fact, although it does not require much fertilizer, it cannot be without it. The role of fertilizer in promoting its growth and development cannot be underestimated.

What fertilizer to apply

There are no requirements for the type of fertilizer for Jade Plant, and ordinary liquid fertilizer will be enough, but make sure it is well decomposed. Also, compound fertilizer is also acceptable.

Specific fertilization method

We can adjust fertilization according to different seasons.

During its peak growth and development period, which mainly refers to spring and autumn, you can apply thin liquid fertilizer every half a month or twenty days. During this period, you can mainly use fertilizer containing N elements.

In summer, because the temperature is very high, it is not suitable for fertilization, so the amount and frequency of fertilization can be appropriately reduced.

In winter, the development of this plant will generally be slower or even stop, so from the end of autumn to the entire winter, the amount of fertilizer can be gradually reduced or even stopped.

Precautions

When we apply fertilizer, we must pay attention to the concentration. For this kind of plant, no matter what season it is, it is not suitable to apply fertilizer with too high concentration.

In addition to adjusting according to the season, you can also make specific adjustments based on the growth status of the plant. For example, when its growth is not very good, you can apply a fertilizer rich in K to promote its growth.

In order to avoid poor plant development and to reduce the pressure of fertilizing later, you can pay attention when choosing planting soil, choose soil with abundant fertility, or mix in some nutrients in advance.
