The fertilizers used for cultivating Epiphyllum are different in different seasons. Nitrogen fertilizer should be the main fertilizer in spring, which is the critical period for growth. In summer, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be the main fertilizer, and in autumn, decomposed liquid fertilizers should be the main fertilizer, which can be applied once every half a month. In winter, epiphyllum is in the dormant period, so fertilization should generally be stopped. In addition, you can also fertilize during the flower bud period.

1. What kind of fertilizer to use for fertilization

1. Spring: Nitrogen fertilizer should be the main fertilizer in spring, because it is the period when epiphyllum grows, and it needs to be supplied with sufficient nutrients. Fertilizer should be applied approximately every twenty days.

2. Summer: In summer, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be used mainly, because the temperature is relatively high in summer, and epiphyllum will slowly enter the dormant period. Its growth rate will slow down during the dormant period, so it is enough to add phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once in summer.

3. Autumn: In autumn, decomposed liquid fertilizer should be used as the fertilizer. Lord, this is the period when the epiphyllum is growing, so it should be given sufficient nutrients. You can apply some well-rotted liquid fertilizer once every fifteen days or so.

4. Winter: Fertilization should be stopped in winter. The temperature is relatively low in winter and epiphyllum will stop growing. Therefore, fertilization should be stopped at this time, and it should be moved indoors for insulation.

2. Can I apply fertilizer when the flower buds grow

Epiphyllum can be applied with some boron fertilizer when the flower buds are growing, because the lack of boron fertilizer will cause the flower buds to fall, so just add some boron fertilizer appropriately during the flower bud period. Remember not to apply nitrogen fertilizer. Additional nitrogen fertilizer will cause the flower buds to fall. Appropriate protection should be provided while the flower buds are growing, otherwise it will affect the normal growth and flowering of epiphyllum.
