In the vicinity of the last frost date in spring, when is the ideal time to fertilize things first?
and did anyone happen to know the ratio of number for things like fertilizer or Canadian hemlock Tsuga canadensis? how early should fertilize other things, such as shrubs, plants, decks dirt, grass, etc. Thank you? Sorry for your answers, confusion, perhaps, in my question. Eager to know exactly the best time usually one can start to pay things first.
To answer your questions in order, the ideal time to fertilize is things in the spring when you first notice the "new" growth begin to appear and open the road "outbreaks." This will tell the plant or tree actively functioning and has emerged from its dormant state and moisture and nutrient uptake at this time. Canadian Hemlock is, of course, a conifer .. alias (Evergreen). In nature, requiring little in the form of nutrients and doing very well in its growth environment. However, being in the private landscape are out of their element and the need to look a little closer than they normally would be. Regarding his relationship "number" part of the question, Iam assuming that means that the percentage of NPK fertilizer is needed in a fir of a healthy. If so, here's my take ... All coniferous need a higher percentage of "N" or nitrogen in their applications. This might nutrients to maintain its high growth and green. The last two numbers on the fertilizer bag will "match" and "potassium". These 2 numbers will be much smaller than the nitrogen first () number. Usually be in the range of 2% to 8%, respectively. This general rule applies all plants, shrubs and trees .... Fertilize when new growth appears in spring, when plants emerging from winter dormancy. You can pay twice in a growing season with conifers. One application in spring and autumn to mid. The application must be a fall 16-16-16 or similar ratio balanced. You do not want to promote the growth of leaves just before the tree goes into winter dormancy and the higher percentage of phosphorus and potassium, help in the root developement. I hope this answers your question ... ... Billy Ray $ $
