I Growth habit

First of all, you must understand the living habits of nantianzhu in advance. In fact, nantianzhu has strong adaptability. It likes warm climate and humid environment, but it can withstand cool environment and cold climate. However, it has relatively high requirements for soil. It must be fertile, drainage must be good, and it must be sandy soil. It does not have strict requirements for water, and can withstand drought and humidity. Here's the point. Nantian bamboo likes fertilizers very much, especially those containing phosphorus and potassium. You can apply more fertilizer at ordinary times

II How to fertilize

Next, let's take a look at how to fertilize nantianzhu

1. Fertilization time. Generally, fertilizer should be applied once or twice a month from February, and it can be stopped in July

2. Choice of fertilizer. At ordinary times, you can apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, or apply cake fertilizer and bone meal instead, but the concentration should not be too large. You can spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate once by the end of May. From May to September, dilute pancake water can be applied once in 15 to 20 days, and ferrous sulfate water with a concentration of about 0.2% should be applied once in about two months

3. Fertilization methods. In the seedling stage of Nantian bamboo, the liquid fertilizer should be lighter and not too thick. Generally, the ratio of liquid fertilizer to water is 1:10. In the growth stage of Nantian bamboo, the liquid fertilizer can be applied once or twice a month. At this time, the ratio can be slightly thicker. The ratio of liquid fertilizer to water is 1:8. After adulthood, dry fertilizer needs to be applied once a year in May, August and October, The third fertilization should be carried out when it is moved indoors for the winter. At this time, the fertilizer can be cake fertilizer or sesame paste residue. Only dry fertilizer can be applied in rainy season, and only once a month, about 20 ~ 40g per pot

4. Amount of fertilizer. The amount of fertilizer is generally less in the first and second times, and appropriate amount of fertilizer is needed from the third time

OK, now you know about how to fertilize Nantian bamboo
