Beautiful and bright petunias are also very unpretentious creatures.
However, this does not mean that the plants do not need feeding - with additional nutrition, petunias will bloom even more abundantly and for a longer time.
The first time fertilizers should be applied after picking. Any universal fertilizer containing nitrogen will do for this purpose. This component in the composition will make the process of appearance and growth of foliage even faster.
You can use the same nutrient composition every 10-12 days exactly until the buds begin to form.
When the buds appear, it is worth replacing nitrogen-containing fertilizers with those that contain more phosphorus, for example, potassium monophosphate.
It is recommended to apply this fertilizer 3 times per season at intervals of 5 days.
To feed flowering petunias, it is worth using potassium compounds - potassium sulfate and the like. This fertilizer is applied only once, since overdoing it can slow down plant growth.
You can read about the proportions to use and how to prepare nutritional compositions on the packaging.
