Can I fertilize strawberries during their flowering period?

Do I need to fertilize strawberries when they are blooming?

When strawberries grow, from flowering to fruiting, it is generally a continuous process, and there will naturally be more fruits as the flowers grow. However, the entire flowering and fruiting process of strawberries requires a fairly long time, during which a large amount of fertilizers will be consumed, especially phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. If these elements are lacking when strawberries are flowering and bearing fruit, it will lead to fewer flowers and poor growth of flowers, which will then affect the fruiting and cause a series of problems with the strawberry fruits.

In order to make the strawberry bloom and bear fruit better, it is necessary to fertilize it during the flowering period.

What fertilizer should be applied when strawberries are blooming?

In fact, when strawberries bloom, in order to meet the needs of flowering and make them bloom well and bear good fruits, some phosphorus fertilizers and potassium fertilizers should be applied to them. Generally, apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, or potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and decomposed cattle bones and pig bone powder diluted with water to the roots of strawberries once every half a month or every 20 days, and sprinkle them around the roots of the strawberries to make them bloom better.

Secondly, you can apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer solution, or superphosphate and wood ash extract to strawberries once every 7 to 10 days. Mainly spray it on the leaves and buds of the strawberries, and spray it evenly until there are water droplets on the surface. In this way, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be supplemented on the surface of the leaves, and the effect is very good.
