    When choosing soil, pitcher plants should be mixed with good water retention as much as possible, and garden soil + humus soil or peat soil can be mixed. After planting, you can spread a layer of moss on the surface of the soil, and if you don't have charcoal, you can use charcoal or cedar bark to retain water and moisturize, if the water is lost too quickly, it will affect its growth.

    Nepenthes generally uses loose, fertile and well-permeable humus or peat soil as a substrate, and if it is a potted plant, peat soil can be mixed with moss, charcoal and fir bark. Plants need to grow in a moist environment, so it must have good water retention, if the water is excreted too quickly and the soil is too dry, it will affect the development of the plant, causing it to grow poorly.

    Nepenthes comparatively does not require much fertilizer. This is a very barren tolerant variety. When you grow up, you can top dressing in an appropriate amount, and the demand should not be too much. In addition, when changing the soil or planting, you can also add a little base fertilizer.

    Second, the type of fertilizer.

    Top dressing is generally a fast-acting fertilizer sprayed directly on the foliage, not a fertilizer applied directly to the soil. There are a variety of base fertilizer brigades to choose from, such as plant ash, bone meal and other nutrients.

    3. Fertilization method.

    For example, it is stated on the instructions that it is better to dilute 1000 times, and it is better to dilute 4000 times when fertilizing pitcher plants. After diluting the laughing state, spray directly on the leaf surface. When using basal fertilizers, they can be incorporated directly into the substrate.

    2.Also, be careful not to fertilize pitcher plants too often. Generally speaking, once a month or so can meet the requirements.

    Look at what pitcher plant you're growing. If it's so-so-so. If you're so dry, you need to bag it properly.

    If it's the South, don't bother with him. It is best to place it in a place of astigmatism. Don't take it out to dry when bagging.

    When the mud is almost dry, water, it is better not to fertilize. Insectivorous plants are sensitive to fertilizers. If you have too much, it will hang.

    But the general flower market seems to be okay. But I didn't try.

    Nepenthes can only receive foliar sprays of fast-acting fertilizers and should never be applied to the soil.

    Commercially available Floral R is a foliar spray fertilizer, and Floral No. 5 with a higher nitrogen content is the most suitable for purchase.

    Since insectivorous plants are less tolerant of high concentrations of fertilizers, they should be diluted several times more according to the amount they are used to be safe. For example, if the instructions for use of fertilizer indicate that it is diluted 1000 times, it may be diluted up to 4000 times for pitcher plants. Spray the diluted fertilizer evenly on the whole pitcher plant with a sprayer and spray it wet.

    In addition to foliar sprays, you can also use a slow-acting basal fertilizer that is directly fed into the pitcher plant bottle to provide nutrients. In order to avoid environmental health problems, it is best to use chemical fertilizers, and the common magic fertilizer in the flower market is a slow-acting chemical base fertilizer. As long as a small grain of magic fertilizer is put into a bottle, a pitcher plant only needs to be fertilized in a bottle.
