What to feed the Decembrist in November: the best thing you can think of
It is not for nothing that the Decembrist is so called. The plant can please the gardener until the New Year holidays, but for this you need to try.
It will thank you with bright blooms if you add homemade fertilizer now.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", a scientist agronomist and landscape designer, told how to prepare fertilizer.
To form buds for future flowering, the plant should be kept in a cool place in September and October.
It is also worth protecting it from bright light and avoiding excessive watering.
If everything is done correctly, then in November all that remains is to stimulate flowering with the help of fertilizer.
How to feed the Decembrist
1. You can buy a complex fertilizer with the maximum level of potassium and phosphorus, but with a minimum nitrogen level.
2. Another option is to use a solution of boric acid (1 gram per 1 liter of water).
The solution is used for spraying before flowering, or as a root dressing when buds appear.
3. With the same success, you can add succinic acid fertilizer (1 tablet per 1 liter of water). The solution is used for watering.
Do not forget to control the air temperature (it should be within 18-20 degrees) and place the plant on the windowsill of a window facing south.
Also, follow the watering schedule. At this time, the Decembrist is watered once every 5 days.
