Not many plants can withstand these dry conditions and therefore the surrounding vegetation is naturally quite sparse.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, organic material hardly ever reaches the soil, which is why the soil is usually quite poor in humus. Yucca plants is therefore used to particularly stony and sandy mineral soils. These are nevertheless quite rich in nutrients.<\/p>\n<p>However, since it rains only rarely and the nutrients are absorbed especially under humid conditions, the plant does not constantly reach them. Beaked Yucca is therefore accustomed to periods of hunger, but due to their strong growth, they still need some nutrients.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_Should_You_Fertilize_Beaked_Yucca\"><\/span>When Should You Fertilize Beaked Yucca?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In principle, you should only fertilize your Beaked Yucca during the growing season. This season starts in spring and ends in September at the latest. However, it is advisable not to fertilize your yucca during the winter. At this time of the year, the plant needs a rest period during which it cannot use any nutrients.<\/p>\n<p>Planted yucca tree usually does not need any additional fertilizer. They are satisfied with what they can get with their roots from the environment. Since you are not harvesting your yucca, you are not depriving the plant and the soil of any nutrients. Accordingly, no new nutrients need to be added.<\/p>\n<p>This is different from <a href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/vipers-bugloss\/\">potted plants<\/a>, which have limited root growth. Their nutrient supply is limited to the size of the pot. If the plant is to grow vigorously, you should give it a portion of nutrients about once a month during the growth phase.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9285\" src=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Yucca-palms-in-a-tub.jpg\" alt=\"Yucca palms in a tub\" width=\"750\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Yucca-palms-in-a-tub.jpg 750w, https:\/\/gardender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Yucca-palms-in-a-tub-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Beaked_Yucca_Fertilized_With\"><\/span>What Is Beaked Yucca Fertilized With?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>With yucca, the focus is mainly on beautiful leaf growth and less on flowering. For this reason, a fertilizer with a relatively high nitrogen content is a good choice. Phosphorus is therefore not particularly important. In general, yucca is one of the few plants that is often <a href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/watering-the-lawn\/\">watered with harder tap water<\/a>. The lime contains covers the plant&#8217;s need for calcium.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fertilizing_Beaked_Yucca_Organically\"><\/span>Fertilizing Beaked Yucca Organically<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Solid organic fertilizers contribute to humus formation in the soil. This is in principle very good but does not quite correspond to the natural preferences of the Beaked Yucca. Nevertheless, you do not have to do without organic fertilization. You can easily supply your plant with a liquid fertilizer every three weeks. The liquid fertilizer Citrus &amp; Mediterranean from Gardender, for example, is ideal for providing the plant with sufficient nutrients and producing lush green leaves.<\/p>\n<p>A homemade alternative, however, is the regular use of nettle liquid manure, which &#8211; also diluted like the liquid fertilizer &#8211; supplies your Beaked Yucca with water.

Special fertilizers are not necessary, because it depends solely on the ratio of N (nitrogen), P (phosphorus), and K (potassium). Nitrogen is crucial for rapid growth, phosphorus promotes <a href=\"https:\/\/gardender.com\/christmas-cactus\/\">flower formation<\/a> and potassium has an influence on the water balance and winter hardiness of the plant. For potted plants, the choice of a liquid fertilizer is recommended.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fertilizing_Beaked_Yucca_with_household_remedies\"><\/span>Fertilizing Beaked Yucca with household remedies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Liquid fertilizers are also regularly produced in the household as a sideline. An often underestimated factor is, for example, the nutrient content in the cooking water. Potatoes and other vegetables release nutrients into the surrounding water during the cooking process.
