Main content: Causes of slow bud growth: Lack of nutrients, especially potassium and phosphorus. Irregular watering or lack of water during the bud development stage. Plants are infected with pests or not properly cared for. How to stimulate apricot buds to grow quickly: Fertilize to stimulate bud growth: Use NPK with high potassium and phosphorus content such as 10-10-30, 6-30-30 or 15-15-15 to provide necessary nutrients. Combine spraying foliar fertilizer containing micronutrients such as calcium, magnesium and boron to support buds to be strong and grow quickly. Adjust watering: Maintain moderate humidity, water evenly in the early morning or cool afternoon. Avoid letting the plant dry out or get waterlogged because it will affect the development of buds. Spraying supplements: Use growth stimulants containing GA3 (Gibberellic Acid) in small doses to enhance the bud development process. What fertilizer should be applied when the buds are large? When the buds start to grow: Apply NPK 10-10-30 or 6-30-30, prioritizing base fertilizer to provide potassium, helping the buds bloom beautifully and retain color for a long time. When the buds are almost ripe: Switch to organic fertilizer (worm castings, microbial fertilizer) or balanced NPK such as 15-15-15 to maintain the health of the plant. Dosage: Use 10-15g of fertilizer for each tree, fertilize 10-15 cm from the base, water immediately after fertilizing to dissolve the fertilizer evenly. Notes when stimulating apricot buds: Avoid applying high nitrogen fertilizers during this period because it can cause the tree to grow new shoots instead of focusing on nurturing buds. Do not spray stimulants or fertilize on hot sunny days. Observe the tree's condition regularly to adjust the amount of fertilizer accordingly. Result: Apricot buds grow quickly, evenly, and are sturdy. The tree is healthy, ready for the beautiful blooming season right on Tet.
