Chinese Laterns, Nutrtional needs

Question

What are the nutritional needs of Chinese Laterns. Have a grower wanting to apply Micro Nutrients and more if needed.

Answer 1

Usually, a slow release fertilizer in spring, and a well balanced fertilizer in fall will just about do it. Adding micros wouldn't hurt, but it won't be fully necessary either, unless they are showing signs of specific deficiencies.
