When you buy a carnation, you need to check whether its roots are rotten and whether there are residual flowers and leaves. If there are any, they should be cut off in time.After that, disinfectant should be used to disinfect all the scissors, and then put it in a well-ventilated place to dry, to avoid its infection with bacteria, after drying, it can be potted.
1. Illumination: It likes light, under normal circumstances, it needs to be placed in the position of direct light to the sun for maintenance, and give adequate light, but when it is just bought back, it needs to have a stage to adapt to the new environment, it can not be directly placed in the sun, it can be placed in a place with sufficient scattered light and good ventilation for maintenance.After it resumes growth, give it sufficient light slowly, and gradually extend the duration of light, at least 6 hours, because it is in a semi-dormant state in summer, can not be exposed to the hot sun.
2. Temperature: It likes warm, not high temperature.When it is just bought back, it can be placed in an environment with a temperature of about 20 C for maintenance, and it can not be placed in a low temperature environment for a long time, otherwise it is easy to frostbite, and it will be more difficult to recover after freezing.In summer, when the temperature is higher than 30 C, it is easy to cause withering symptoms, and appropriate spray cooling is needed.
3. Watering: It is afraid of waterlogging, just bought back, it does not grow fast, so do not need a lot of water support, you can water it every 3-5 days, so that its soil is not dry, no water state can be.Under normal circumstances, in addition to timely watering in the peak season of growth and flowering, less watering can be done in peacetime to maintain soil moisture.Usually, it can be sprayed around it from time to time to increase air humidity, which will be more conducive to its growth.
4. Fertilization: It needs enough nutrients during normal growth, but when it is just bought back, it needs to stop fertilizing.Because it is still in the slow pot period at this time, fertilization can easily lead to root burning.After a period of time, it can be fertilized after it adapts to the new environment.Under normal circumstances, before planting, the basin should first apply enough base fertilizer containing potassium, calcium, nitrogen and phosphorus, and continuously apply liquid fertilizer during the growth period, generally applying decomposed thin fertilizer water every 10 days or so.Fertilization should be prohibited during the high temperature period in summer, otherwise it is easy to wither or even die.
