Many people like to raise Clivia, including Xiao Qi, but many flower lovers just can't raise Clivia well, and it is weak and doesn't bloom. In fact, Clivia must be properly fertilized if it wants to grow well and blossom a lot. Many flower lovers don't know how to fertilize. Let's briefly talk about how Clivia fertilizes.
Clivia has a great demand for fertilizer, so people can choose four methods to do it at a time. Usually, the most important thing is to apply base fertilizer, also called base fertilizer, which can play a major role in creating development conditions, meeting its own nutrient needs and better promoting the growth of Clivia.
After this step is completed, you can topdressing. In the future, with the growth of plants and the increase of leaves, people's fertilization will gradually increase. Moreover, when fertilizing, the pot soil should be turned over first, and then the fertilizer prepared in advance should be applied to the soil, but it should be noted that fertilization should not be too much, otherwise it will cause root burning.
Clivia usually has the best fertilization in the growth period or flowering period, because it needs a lot of fertilizer to support it, otherwise it will not bloom, even grow slowly and its leaves are too small. Therefore, in the process of maintaining Clivia, as long as it is in the flowering season, people can choose to apply more fertilizer to promote it to bloom.
And generally speaking, Clivia can be cultivated with manure (that is, livestock manure), compost, green manure, bean cake fertilizer and so on. As base fertilizer (or base fertilizer); Fertilizer such as cake fertilizer, fish meal and bone meal can be applied to promote plant growth. In order to make up for the lack of nutrients in the soil, solve the problem of fertilizer deficiency in plants, make seedlings grow rapidly and flowers and fruits grow hypertrophy, topdressing can be done outside the roots.
Spring is the vigorous growth period of Clivia, and the demand for nutrients is high. When changing pots, fried sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, perilla seeds, castor beans, charcoal and bone meal can be used as base fertilizer according to the share of 10%. In the growing period, we usually apply light cake, fertilizer and water every 10 day, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, to promote the growth of branches and leaves. The climate is very hot in summer. When the temperature is above 25 degrees, Clivia should lose weight properly or stop fertilizing at 25 degrees. Too much fertilizer will burn the fleshy roots. If the temperature can be reduced below 25 degrees, extremely weak liquid fertilizer can be applied every 15-20 days to promote its growth and shorten its dormancy period.
Clivia grows vigorously in autumn and needs a lot of fertilizer. In addition to putting some fermented bean cake residue, bone meal, fried hemp seed or various base fertilizers at the bottom of the pot when changing pots, 1 fermented bean cake water or fishy water should be applied every half month. Clivia insists on how fat it is in winter. Pour liquid fertilizer once every 10 day (nitrogen fertilizer should not be applied more, except for young seedlings). Three months before flowering, liquid fertilizer mainly composed of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be applied to promote its flowering.
