1. Whether it is possible to water flowers

3. Precautions

If the flowers are in a growing state, you can use an appropriate amount of compound fertilizer to water the flowers, but if they are in a dormant state, it is not suitable to use it. Before watering the flowers, mix the water with water and mix it before use. If you use undissolved fertilizer, it will not be absorbed by the plants. Also, try to fertilize in the evening and avoid periods of high temperature.

1. Whether it can be used to water flowers

Compound fertilizer can be used to water flowers, but in summer, it should be noted that some flowers are dormant and should not be used in this case. On the contrary, if the plants continue to grow in the summer, you can use it in moderation. When using fertilizer, you must first understand the content of each element in the fertilizer. Flowering plants cannot be fertilized with plants with high nitrogen content, otherwise only leaves will grow and it will be difficult to bloom.

2. How to use

Before using compound fertilizer to water flowers, mix it with water in a suitable ratio, usually at a ratio of 1:1000. After mixing the two, just pour it into the potting soil. Undissolved fertilizer cannot be used, and its concentration must be low. Especially when the pot soil is relatively dry, it can be mixed at a ratio of 1:1500.

3. Precautions

1. When applying fertilizer, stay away from the roots of the flowers. Don't get too close, as it will easily burn the roots.

2. Fertilizing in summer should be done in the evening, especially at noon when the temperature is high. Fertilizing at this time is more likely to damage the roots of the plants.
