Fertilization steps

First, choose fertilizer for Osmanthus fragrans fertilization: different fertilizers need to be applied in different growth periods of Osmanthus fragrans. In general, phosphorus fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, potassium fertilizer and mixed fertilizer of phosphorus and nitrogen fertilizer are needed

The second is the period of fertilization: Osmanthus fragrans is in the period of growing branches and buds in early March, so it needs a lot of fertilization. During this period, applying nitrogen fertilizer to Osmanthus fragrans will help the growth of new branches and buds of Osmanthus fragrans, make flower buds grow rapidly and help flowering

When it grows to late May, because the branches and leaves of Osmanthus fragrans have grown and matured, Osmanthus fragrans should accumulate nutrients. At this time, phosphorus fertilizer and nitrogen fertilizer should be applied to Osmanthus fragrans

After October, because Osmanthus fragrans will continue to grow and need nutrients for photosynthesis, phosphorus and potassium mixed fertilizer dominated by nitrogen should be added during this period

After winter, the sweet scented osmanthus should be moved indoors for maintenance. After moving indoors, cake fertilizer should be applied on the surface of the soil to let the sweet scented osmanthus spend the winter

Finally, nursing after fertilization: after fertilization, Osmanthus fragrans should be watered with enough water and placed in a warm and sunny place

Precautions for fertilization

First of all, we should pay attention not to fertilize osmanthus in high-temperature weather. High temperature weather will heat the fertilizer, and osmanthus should not apply heating fertilizer, so we should avoid fertilizing in high-temperature weather, and it is best to fertilize in the evening when the temperature drops

Secondly, do not apply concentrated fertilizer to Osmanthus fragrans. When applying fertilizer, you only need a small amount of fertilizer and more water

Finally, do not apply raw fertilizer to Osmanthus fragrans, but use the corroded fertilizer, otherwise it will burn the roots of Osmanthus fragrans

Pay attention not to apply fertilizer directly to the root every time you apply fertilizer, so as to avoid burning the root and affecting the growth of Osmanthus fragrans
