How to fertilize Begonia!

Spring and autumn fertilization:

When fertilizing Begonia in spring and autumn, the principle of applying small amounts frequently should be followed. In these two seasons, inorganic fertilizer or organic thin fertilizer should be applied as fertilizer, and liquid fertilizer is preferred.

Summer fertilization:

If the temperature reaches above 25 degrees in summer, no fertilizer should be applied. When the temperature is below 25 degrees, you can apply fertilizer once a week for two consecutive weeks. The time for fertilizing starts after the last flowering period, which will make the Begonia bloom again.

Fertilizing seedlings:

During the growth period of begonia seedlings, nitrogen fertilizer should be used as the main fertilizer, and the amount of fertilizer can be increased appropriately. Nitrogen fertilizer can promote the growth of branches and leaves of begonia.

Fertilization during flowering period:

During the flowering period of Begonia, phosphorus fertilizer should be used as the main fertilizer, and the amount of fertilizer can be increased appropriately. This can make the flowers of Begonia tender and bright, and increase the number of flowers. If fertilizer is not supplied during this period, the whole plant may wither, and in severe cases, it may die.

Fertilization during the growing season:

During the growing period of Begonia, fertilizer should be applied once every 10 days to half a month. The fertilizer should mainly be 20% rapeseed cake water, soybean cake water, etc. that has been decomposed and fermented. If the fertilizer is not completely fermented, it will cause fertilizer damage, causing the leaves of Begonia to dry up and even the whole plant to die.

Fertilization precautions:

Each time after fertilizing the begonia, use a spray bottle to spray water on its branches and leaves to prevent fertilizer from splashing onto the branches and leaves of the plant and causing yellowing.
