Winter coral, known as jade Coral, coral bean, Jiqing fruit and other interesting nicknames. Generally in summer and autumn, there will be small white flowers, as well as attractive berries, red and round oval berries, which make people can't bear to look away at a glance. Fertilization is a very important part, so how to fertilize winter coral?

Fertilizer selection in different periods

If winter coral has just been transplanted, the best choice is natural animal manure. However, if conditions do not allow, you can also apply cake fertilizer. No matter what kind of fertilizer is OK, but remember to add fertilizer after transplantation

When the winter coral is in the growing season: just after the cultivation, it can apply diluted liquid fertilizer once every half a month or so; if the plant has grown to a certain height, it can spray some fertilizer, which can eliminate the "top advantage", prevent the top crazy growth and inhibit the growth of flower buds.

When the plant is in the pre flowering stage, it is necessary to use nutrients rich in phosphorus elements to top up fertilizer and provide necessary nutrient basis for flower breeding. When entering the stage of flower bud breeding, add some (KH2PO4) solution in the applied organic fertilizer, or spray some fertilizer that is conducive to coarsening the fruit base, so as to prevent the flower and fruit from falling. Do not fertilize during flowering. When the fruit grows up a little bit, fertilization can be restored, and in the later stage, two or three times of P fertilizer, K fertilizer can be applied, etc., which is beneficial to the rapid growth of the fruit.

Fertilization precautions

When plants are in the period of flowering and bearing, fertilizer should be applied with great care. It is necessary to judge whether or not to apply fertilizer and how much fertilizer should be applied through the state of flowers and fruits.

Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are essential elements for the growth of winter corals, especially phosphorus and potassium. Phosphorus and potassium are indispensable. However, attention should be paid to limiting the use of nitrogen fertilizer to avoid the phenomenon that too much nitrogen fertilizer causes too fast growth of branches. If the condition is suitable, can use animal excrement and the nourishment that the market buys..
