How, when and with what you should fertilize your geraniums.

Geranium  is a flower that often decorates balconies and terraces. It is a very easy plant to grow and without special needs, which is also why it is so common.

However , to bloom optimally,  geraniums need nutrients .

So let’s see how to dose them, how often and how to care for them so they can enjoy the wonderful flowers they produce.

  1. Frequency:  There are several ideal times to fertilize geraniums. One is certainly when they are planted and/or decanted. In this case, natural fertilizers such as compost (in this case monthly) or liquids (every 2-3 weeks) can be used.
  2. When:  Other ideal times are in the pre-flowering phase, that is, when the first buds begin to appear, and until summer. However, in the autumn season they can be reduced: during this period the plant does not need nutrients because it is resting.
  3. As a fertilizer:  The most suitable natural fertilizers for geraniums include coffee grounds and Epsom salt, which provide the amounts of nutrients and minerals necessary for the plant to grow healthy and strong.
