2. How to fertilize

When fertilizing, fertilization should be carried out selectively according to the different growth stages of the camellia flowering period. For flowering in autumn and winter, it is advisable to apply a mixed fertilizer based on phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. At the stage of sprouting branches and leaves, it is advisable to apply nitrogen fertilizer or a nitrogen-based mixed fertilizer. Before flower bud differentiation, flower bud formation, growth and flowering, it is appropriate to apply phosphorus fertilizer or a phosphorus-based mixed fertilizer.

1. What fertilizer to use

1. Before flower buds differentiate, form, grow, and bloom, it is appropriate to apply phosphate fertilizer or a mixed fertilizer based on phosphorus

2. During the flowering period of the camellia, you can apply phosphate fertilizer and potash fertilizer, and bury the phosphate fertilizer and potassium fertilizer into the pot according to the amount to meet the nutrient needs of the camellia when it blooms. Note that the amount of fertilizer should not be too much to prevent obesity damage.

2. How to apply fertilizer

1 , Apply foliar fertilizer. That is, mix rice vinegar, urea, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate and dilute it with water before spraying. At the same time, topdress the roots to promote lush growth of spring shoots. However, the focus of the flowering period is to promote flower buds and flowering. At the same time, attention should be paid to the appropriate intake of other elements to promote bud pregnancy and ensure flowering quality.

2. When the spring shoots of Camellia grow strong and begin to lignify Afterwards, the camellia plant will enter a semi-dormant state. The time is generally relatively short. Then it will gradually enter the growth stage, form flower buds and begin to differentiate. At this time, you can take in some phosphorus and potassium elements and reduce the intake of nitrogen elements to help the plants conceive a large number of buds. This can not only prevent the camellia from growing steep branches, but also accelerate the differentiation of flower buds and promote the formation of flower buds.
