It grows luxuriantly in the fertile sandy soil rich in humus and well drained soil, with developed bulbs and colorful flowers. The suitable nitrogen fertilizer is soybean cake, vegetable cake, farm compost and N, P & nbsp; and K compound fertilizer.
During the growing period, the soil should be loosened and weeded frequently, and the middle ploughing should be carried out in combination with watering and fertilization. Generally, diluted liquid fertilizer was applied 2-3 times to promote the growth and development of seedlings. The application of 1-2 & nbsp; secondary phosphorus and potassium fertilizer near the flowering of the pregnant bud can ensure that the plants have sufficient nutrition in the pregnant bud and the flowering period, which can not only make the flowers large and fresh, but also promote the development of the bulbs.
In the north, it is better to choose a sunny shelter, while in the south, it can be planted in a slightly shady place. The planting time should be from August to September. One month before planting, sufficient base fertilizer should be applied and the soil should be turned over deeply. Compost and plant ash can be used as base fertilizer.
Potting should be carried out from September to October. The culture soil should be mixed with saprophytic soil, sandy soil and garden soil in the proportion of 1:1:1. The bottom of the pot should be fully composted with a small amount of bone powder and used as the base fertilizer. The planting depth is about 2-3 times of bulb diameter.
The requirement of fertilizer is not very high for Lilium Lilium. It is usually suitable to apply fertilizer at the beginning of spring growth and the beginning of flowering. Some foreign cultivators think that Lily needs more nitrogen and potassium fertilizer, and should be applied every 10-15 days during its growth period, while the supply of phosphorus fertilizer should be limited, because more phosphorus fertilizer will cause yellow leaves. In the flowering stage, 1-2 days of P fertilizer could be added.
In order to make the bulbs full, cut off the remaining flowers in time after flowering to reduce the nutrient consumption. Watering only needs to keep the pot soil moist, but in the peak growing season and dry weather, watering should be done properly and frequently around the pot to improve the air humidity. The pot soil should not be too wet, otherwise the bulbs are easy to rot, and the pot lilies are replaced once a year, with new culture soil and base fertilizer. In addition, the flowerpot should be rotated once a week during the growing period. Otherwise, the plants tend to be longer, affecting the beauty.
