When planting, transplanting or changing pots, you need to use some base fertilizer; in addition, it is the fertilizer required in the normal growth period. The base fertilizer mainly uses some solid fertilizers, such as animal manure, etc.; the top dressing can use some liquid fertilizer or prepare it yourself. Base fertilizer needs to be mixed evenly with the substrate when used, and top dressing needs to be diluted before use; the frequency can be controlled at once every half month. Be careful not to get the surface of the leaves when applying fertilizer; loosen the soil before applying fertilizer to promote absorption.

1. Fertilization time

Bougainvillea has a relatively large demand for fertilizers and needs fertilizers for a relatively long period of time. First of all, when planting, transplanting or repotting, you need to use some base fertilizer. Repotting can be controlled once every 2-3 years.

2. Types of fertilizers

Basic fertilizers are mainly solid fertilizers, such as animal manure or some farmyard manure. For top dressing, you can use some liquid fertilizer purchased at a flower shop, or you can mix it yourself. For example, you can put domestic waste in a bucket, seal it and put it in the sun. It will be ready in about half a month.

3. Fertilization method

1. When using base fertilizer, you need to prepare the soil and mix it into it as evenly as possible. The amount of base fertilizer used does not need to be too much, but its role is very important. When using top dressing, it needs to be diluted first, and the concentration must not be too high, otherwise the bougainvillea roots may rot.

2. Furthermore, the frequency of fertilization does not need to be too many, and the interval can be controlled to about half a month.

IV. Precautions

1. When applying fertilizer, be careful not to get it on the surface of the leaves, otherwise it will cause the leaves to rot.

2. Before applying fertilizer, you can loosen the soil appropriately to make the soil looser, which will make it easier to absorb.
