How to fertilize the Swallow's Palm

1. Time of fertilization

Spring is generally the time when it grows best, so at this time we can fertilize it every 10 days. At the same time, be careful not to forget to water it, generally once every two or three days is enough. When summer comes, if the temperature is relatively high, the bird's nest will enter a dormant state, so don't continue to fertilize it at this time. You must stop fertilizing it at this time, otherwise it will have the opposite effect. In autumn, the weather gradually becomes cooler, and the swallowtail plant begins to resume its growth, so you must pay attention to fertilizing at this time. The method of fertilizing is generally the same as in spring.

2. Do not apply fertilizer too concentratedly

Generally, plants do not like too concentrated fertilizers and prefer thinner ones. The same is true for the Swallow's Palm. When applying fertilizer, we must remember not to apply concentrated fertilizers in order to make it grow faster. This will not only prevent it from growing well, but also easily burn its roots because the fertilizer is too concentrated. So be sure to pay attention when applying fertilizer. If it is too concentrated, be sure to dilute it in time or mix it with clean water before applying it. This is also a good way.

3. Fertilization tips

Generally, when we apply fertilizer, we can't just sprinkle it in. There are certain techniques when applying fertilizer. We can loosen the soil appropriately before applying fertilizer to make the soil looser. This will allow its roots to fully absorb the nutrients in the fertilizer, allowing it to grow better. Also, when applying fertilizer, be careful not to let the fertilizer touch its roots and leaves, otherwise it will easily burn its roots and leaves. When applying fertilizer, try to apply it around the edges so that it will not easily be sprinkled on the leaves and roots.
