Fertilizer and nutrient for azalea planting.





Fertilizer and nutrient for azalea planting.
    Textbook said Azalea often did not have problems if grow on the soil full with nutrient planting soil (Soil with lot of humus, many people use of the fertile top soil for planting Azalea or Rhododendron).


From my experience good way to planting azalea  is soluble fertilizer Osmocote 3-6 month slow the case may be. There's the use fertilizers such as 16-16-16 or 24-24-24 formula for azalea in sometimes, but about 2-3 years ago they tried to use microbial fermentation with compost and manure with azalea they work great as well.

      Azalea is often a problem of iron deficiency. This will cause problems with yellow leaves around the vein vein, but still green  in azalea  (Interveinal Chlorosis).
This will affect the growth of the Azalea and may cause death (From the experience this problem often die in the end.)
       This issue is resolved by using ferrous sulfate spray or watering azalea.
Problems of the chloro cis and never will solve the problem by using ferrous sulfate so can not say that due to iron deficiency or not. Or from other causes.
However, azalea textbooks have said that this condition may occur for several reasons. May be caused by flooding azalea. Soil too tightly. Or absence of other metals, etc.
      The textbooks say that Aluminium is a toxic chemical for Azalea So any chemicals that contains Aluminium should be avoided in the Azalea adoption is strictly prohibited.

The way takes care AZALEA




Light
       In the naturally Azalea be the plant which like an umbrella dimly , and the good air ventilation, open area,  the place grows, must have Dimmed light, feeding beside the orchid house which there is Dimmed light 60 percent as a result grow up good.
       However, there is some textbook has given some advice that if grow Azalea by give receive the light that directly, can make Azalea grow up fast more and more but period of time may short down because of the sunlight will make pale color down and wilt fast go up.
        Growing AZALEA by receive the full light ahead early in the morning until about the early afternoon compare within the shade location while dimly 60 percent lights appear that Azalea give more flowers.But , may be wilting in daytime at hot very sunlight and become usual at in the evening and pale color can be found.

Water
    Azalea be the plant likes the water but no mean like to stay in the water be grow must have the moisture all the time but not Afloat. Low level of water is very good.
    If left to dry planting azalea  may even death.Because the roots of azalea very small and if the damage from the loss of too much water can cause root death, dry and effect the growth of Azalea trees.
