If you apply too much fertilizer when maintaining cyclamen, you must deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise it will easily burn the roots and seriously hinder the growth. During treatment, you can irrigate directly with clean water to dilute the fertilizer in the soil, and let the fertilizer liquid flow out along the drainage outlet at the bottom until all the fertilizer flows out. If fertilizer damage has occurred, it is best to remove the pot and replace it with soil as soon as possible, cut off the rotten roots, and repot it for maintenance.

1. What to do if you apply too much fertilizer

The growth of cyclamen is inseparable from fertilizer, but you must pay attention to the amount applied. If the amount of fertilizer is too large, the plant cannot absorb it and it will easily burn the roots over time, so it needs to be treated. You can pour clean water as soon as possible to dilute the fertilizer in the pot soil and let the fertilizer liquid flow out, so as to solve the problem of excessive fertilizer. If fertilizer damage has occurred, it is recommended to remove the pot and replace it with soil, trim off the rotten roots, and repot the plant for maintenance.

2. Fertilization method

Feed it according to its growth stage. If it is in the peak growing season, decomposed and fermented liquid fertilizer should be applied every other week to ensure sufficient nutrients and vigorous growth. Moreover, plants can absorb liquid fertilizer better and faster to promote growth. If it is in the flowering stage, fertilizer containing phosphorus and potassium should be applied after the flower buds grow. You can choose potassium dihydrogen phosphate, which can be used to irrigate the roots or sprayed on the leaves. It can promote flowering and extend the flowering period.

3. Can fertilizer be applied during the flowering period< /h2>

The flowering period of cyclamen is usually in winter and spring, and fertilizer cannot be applied at this stage. If fertilizer is applied during the flowering period, it will easily induce new branches. Premature growth of new branches will cause the flowers to wither early and shorten the flowering time. Just add fertilizer in time before flowering and after flowering. Fertilizing before flowering can promote flowering and provide nutrients needed during the flowering period. Fertilizing after flowering will replenish nutrients and help it recover.
