Fertilize clematis for abundant flowering in June
Clematis - beautiful flowering vine on your site. But her need good care. My clematis bloom already, and they have a lot of lush stems, because in the beginning of June, I was fed by them.
Measures to care for clematis
I remove the thin shoots, stepchildren to the bush was not thickened, and the main forces went on the flowers, not the green mass.
I watered once a week in an amount of 1.5-2 bucket on the plant (in my sandy soil, so water does not stay in the ground). On hot days - 3-4 days. plant roots deep into the ground (up to 1 meter). Therefore, abundant watering is required for abundant and lush flowering clematis.
The soil under the clematis should not dry, but also to fill it also is not necessary. Pouring water should be around the bush, it is possible to do this groove. On the stems and leaves of the water should not be poured.
To maintain moisture mulching grass mown by clematis soil layer at least 10 cm (from the bush must retreat 5-7 cm). Periodically replenish the supply of mulch because it rot with time. Simultaneously mulch will protect the roots of plants, and from the sweltering heat.
Rather than cut grass suited peat, compost and humus.
Spring fed by urea for increasing the green mass. Flow rate - 10 grams. 10 liters of water. Solution on the adult bush bucket required. The shoots grow quickly, so you need a lot of nitrogen. The urea him enough.
Fertilizing in June
Clematis responds well to organic. For example, suitable herbal infusion. 1 liter of solution required for a bucket of water. It is possible to feed the chicken droppings in early June, which is diluted with water in a ratio of 1 to 15. Or suitable mullein solution in a proportion of 1:15.
Before flowering, in the bud stage cook ash solution (1 cup of water in a bucket), insist hours and poured under bush. You can use the ash in a dry form, simply spilling (dusted) around the bush and its proryhlit soil in the root circle. Simultaneously with the introduction of this natural fertilizer is deoxidized soil (clematis does not like acid soil).
Instead of the ash as a deoxidizer can use a solution of hydrated lime or chalk (100-150 gr. a bucket of water). The shrub is poured 10 liters of the so-called lime milk. This procedure can be done in the spring.
Rather ashes suitable complex fertilizer with trace elements with a large content of phosphorous and potassium ( "fop" organo "Universal").
It can also be used as a top dressing superforsfat, potassium sulfate. Dilute according to instructions.
For best flowering prepare the following solution. Manganese is necessary to take 2 grams of boric acid powder in an amount of 2 grams. All the ingredients are diluted in a bucket of water. Solution of the sprayed plants, ie, foliar fertilizer spend. This solution is also good prevention of fungal diseases.
Fertilizers which contain chlorine, clematis not stand.
