Fertilization in autumn it must be mild, because the plant enters its dormant period at this time of year. It is now growing slower, so excess nutrients may harm it more than help it (destroy the roots, cause the rhizomes to rot).
However, this does not mean that you have to completely give up supporting the flower in November. Before winter, it is worth strengthening it by using a delicate homemade zamioculcas fertilizer made from bay leaves. Feeding it once a month is safe and may pay off, because in spring the plant will be stronger and will produce a lot of new leaves and stems.
contain valuable microelements that support the health of zamioculcas. These include: magnesium, iron, potassium, calcium, B vitamins, vitamin A and C.
Importantly, they also contain essential oils with strong antiseptic properties. And that means that applying fertilizer for zamioculcas from bay leaves can protect the plant against fungal diseases.
Don’t know how to make natural fertilizer for zamioculcas from bay leaves? It’s simple. Take out the blender and throw 12-16 leaves into it. Pour them with 1 glass of warm water (about 250-300 ml).
Mix for a minute, then pour the mixture into a jar, add 3 cups of warm water and wait 20-24 hours. After this time, strain the liquid through a strainer and dilute it in 1 liter of standing water.
Water the zamioculcas with bay leaf fertilizer once a month, strengthen it and stimulate it to develop new shoots for a long time. More frequent feeding of nutrients during this period is not recommended.
the days become shorter, so the zamioculcas has less light. So you can move it to the eastern or southern windowsill to a room with a constant temperature of 18 to 24 degrees Celsius. The plant feels best in such conditions.
Do not expose it to drafts and cold winds, as they may lead to yellowing of the leaves. Frequent watering of zamioculcas in autumn is not recommended. Do this only when the top layer of soil dries, every 3 weeks. It is better to give the flowers too little than too much water and add it later if necessary.
