| Fertilizing |
Dahlias benefit from a low-nitrogen fertilizer such as a 5-10-10 (N-P-K ratio). Fertilize after sprouting and then every 3- 4 weeks from mid-summer until early autumn. DO NOT overfertilize, especially with nitrogen, or you risk small/no blooms or rot
|
| Top Tips |
• Provide horizontal netting when growing.
• Dahlias are very thirsty and can easily be irrigated every day in well drained soils when flowering. If you notice flowers becoming smaller, up the irrigation. Give a deep soaking every 3rd irrigation. • Treat plants when they are dry and allow enough time for them to dry before the evening. • Don’t treat plants when the ambient air temp. is above 28’C. |
