A lot of people like to raise flowers, but not everyone can raise flowers well. How can we make flowers more beautiful? The following summary of flower cultivation techniques, regardless of what kind of flowers you are raising, this knowledge of flower cultivation is applicable. If you want to comprehensively master how to cultivate flowers, you should quickly look together!
How to water it?
Different flowers have different needs for water. Most of the plants in our family are neutral plants and xerophytes. Flowers and plants such as Clivia and rose are neutral plants that can't be watered more or less, while succulent plants, such as succulent plants, are xerophytic and have low water demand.
Water selection:
We can collect natural water, such as rain water, snow water, lake water or well water, which are the first choice for watering flowers. Tap water can only be used after drying, and chlorine gas should be removed first.
Water temperature:
It's best to keep the temperature of watering in line with the temperature of flowers. We can put water beside the flowers for a period of time, and then water the flowers when the temperature of the two is almost the same.
Watering method:
In addition to the usual watering method, we can also use the soaking pot method and moisturizing method.
Dip pot method is to put the flowerpot in the shallow plate of water, so that the water is slowly absorbed into the soil, so that it can be done in a period of time without watering.
Moisturizing method is often used to spray water around the flowers, such as some foliage plants, to the leaves or around the water, not only can keep the humidity, but also keep the leaves clean.
Principle of watering:
Watering should not always be pursued once a few days. The most effective way is to judge whether it should be watered according to the condition of the soil. The so-called see dry see wet, dry pouring thoroughly, not dry do not water, that is, the degree of soil dry and wet.
Use a small shovel to dig out about 2cm of soil in the pot. It looks white and dry to touch. It means watering. In addition, you can also lift the pot to feel the weight. If the pot is light, you should water it when the water is dry.
When the soil is dry to the degree mentioned above, it is necessary to pour water through. The standard is that there is water flowing out from the drain hole of the flowerpot.
If the surface of the potted soil looks moist, you don't need to water it. In short, it's better to be dry than wet. Don't worry about the lack of water for flowers.
Consequences of improper watering:
① Excessive watering: root system can not breathe, suffocate, leading to rotten roots and even death.
② Too little watering: lack of water causes the flowers to wither and wither.
③ Watering impervious: root system can not fully extend development, performance for the flowers grow short, thin.
How to apply fertilizer?
The growth of flowers mainly needs nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Different elements play different roles on flowers. Nitrogen fertilizer promotes the growth of branches and leaves, phosphorus fertilizer can promote flowering, and potassium fertilizer promotes the development of root system and fruit setting. Only when the three elements work together can flowers grow well.
Types of fertilizers:
1. Base fertilizer: it is used to pad the bottom of the pot, such as chicken manure, rotten pine bark, peel, etc., can be placed at the bottom of the pot as base fertilizer. It should be noted that the base fertilizer and the roots of flowers and plants can not be directly contacted, and a layer of soil should be separated in the middle to prevent root burning.
2. Solid fertilizer: it is compound fertilizer and other solid state fertilizer, when using, dig a small hole in the basin soil, bury 2 ~ 3 grains.
3. Water and fertilizer: that is, liquid fertilizer. It can be the fertilizer purchased by ourselves and diluted with water, or it can be the supernatant of self-made fertilizer. When used, it is usually diluted in the proportion of 1:2000 and then poured to the flowers.
4. Organic fertilizer: homemade fertilizer is generally organic fertilizer, such as rotten rice washing water, peel, kitchen waste, bean dregs and so on.
The self-made organic fertilizer must be decomposed first. The method is to add water to the material and put it in a sunny place and seal it for about 2 months. Then mix the decomposed fertilizer into the soil or dilute the supernatant with water before watering the flowers.
Principles of fertilization:
"Thin fertilizer and more application", less each time, once a month during the growth period.
What to do with too much fertilizer?
① The fertilizer in the soil was gradually diluted by pot leaching method.
② Soil change: wash the soil and flowerpot at the root of the flower, smear carbendazim on the flower, dry it in a ventilated place, prepare new soil, and then transplant it to the pot.
How to get in the sun?
The flowers often raised at home are divided into three kinds: like Yang, half Yin and half Yang, like Yin.
1. The flowers of Xi Yang include rose, chrysanthemum, Petunia, cactus and succulent. These flowers basically need full sunlight, we should put them in the sunny place of Nanyang station, but if the temperature exceeds 30 ℃, we should also pay attention to shade to avoid sunburn.
2. The flowers with half shade and half Yang include Gardenia jasminoides, Phyllostachys heterophylla, Camellia sinensis, banyan, etc. These flowers are generally placed in the living room where there is scattered light, more shade resistant. When the temperature is low in winter, you can move to the balcony to bask in the sun.
3. The flower that likes shade has green Luo, Wen Zhu, Hu PI LAN, Adiantum, etc. These flowers don't need too much light and can be kept in a relatively dark room at home.
Northern flower friends generally do not have to worry about the flowers will be sunburnt, but the most worry is that when the temperature drops, the flowers will be frozen. After winter, if the temperature is not too low during the day, don't worry about it. When the temperature is low at night, you should pay attention to move the flowers into the room to keep warm.
Flower friends can observe the position of the quilt to judge its demand for sunshine when buying flowers.
How to change the basin with soil?
Buy back the flowers generally need to change the pot soil, in order to the good growth of flowers, we should choose the appropriate pot and soil.
Selection of flowerpot:
According to the plant type, we can choose the flowerpot 3 ~ 5cm larger than the plant diameter.
Soil selection:
I don't know what kind of soil to use or too lazy to mix with soil. I'll tell you the cheapest soil mix: rotten leaf soil under big trees + river sand in the ratio of 1:1!
The soil must be loose and breathable, otherwise the root system of flowers will not develop well, thus affecting the growth of branches and flowers.
Note:
① Soil dug back to pay attention to disinfection, first placed on the balcony to dry 2-3 days for sterilization, you can mix in some carbendazim.
② When changing pot soil, trim the root of the flower, remove the rotten root, bad root and dead root, and then apply carbendazim, and dry it in the ventilation place before transplanting it to the pot.
③ Can bring some of the original soil into the pot, conducive to the flowers to adapt to the new environment.

This is the basic principle, we must master it!
