What you should definitely feed petunias after picking: this is the only way the plants will be able to recover from stress
Picking is one of the most important procedures used in the process of forcing healthy and strong seedlings.
At the same time, as the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist, and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh reminds, this process becomes a cause of stress for plants.
This means that seedlings, including petunias, need special support at this time, and here is what you can use for this purpose.
1. Don't use nitrogen right away - instead, give preference to special fertilizers, which contain a whole range of nutrients.
Experienced plant growers recommend using a urea solution prepared by adding 5 granules to a liter of water. It should be sprayed on the plantings.
2. In addition, it would not hurt to look in gardening stores for special preparations - stimulants that improve the growth and development of the root system.
They should be used together with succinic acid.
The right time to apply fertilizer for the second time comes on average 8 days after picking.
