Fertilization time

Spring and autumn are the most vigorous growing seasons for most plants. Cactus will enter the climax of growth in summer, and the growth rate is higher than that in other seasons. Therefore, fertilization in spring and autumn should be carried out according to the following time and times: fertilization once in about 15 days in spring, 4 to 5 times in autumn, and once a month in autumn; In summer, the interval can be shortened and fertilizer can be applied once every 10 days

Precautions for fertilization

Fertilization stopped until early October. At this time, if fertilization is not well controlled, it is easy to frostbite the cactus in winter

When applying fertilizer, be careful not to let the fertilizer splash on the plants. If it is contaminated, spray it with a watering can in time until the fertilizer is sprayed clean
