Novice flower cultivation is basically to buy a large flowerpot, regardless of whether the seedlings are big or small, anyway, it's OK to plant them. It's easy to figure out, but it's absolutely impossible to plant small seedlings in a large flowerpot.
There are many big pots of soil, slow evaporation of water, weak seedlings and small roots. Once soaked in water, they love rotten roots. Instead, they use small pots to grow. The soil is less water, and the dry and wet circulation is fast. In order to absorb more water, the roots will strive to grow.
If the flower just bought is a small seedling, it is recommended to use a 10cm diameter flowerpot. After the root system is full of the small flowerpot, gradually replace the large flowerpot. In addition, the flowerpot should also be well selected.
In consideration of cost performance, Huahua suggests using a two-color basin of a few cents for seedlings, which is convenient for transplanting. When the plants grow up, they can be replaced and planted in gallon basin and resin basin.
Then talk about the soil. The soil for planting flowers is not just the garden soil dug casually. We must use the soft, breathable and fertile new soil, which is better than the general-purpose nutrition soil of meleko of Huahua family.
Then someone has to say, can we afford not to buy soil? It's OK, for example, if you have the advantage of land advantage and live in rural mountainous areas, you can dig out the ready-made pine needle soil and rotten leaf soil.
However, the soil dug in the field must be exposed to the sun and disinfected, otherwise it is easy to carry bacteria and insect eggs in the soil. For flower friends who can't take advantage of the land, they can also retouch the soil themselves.
Of course! On the premise that there is old soil, you should prepare the bag, one layer of old soil and one layer of fallen leaves, sprinkle less water to wet the soil, and tie the bag tightly for half a year.
Let's talk about fertilizer. There are many kinds of fertilizer on the market now. Many people don't know how to use it. In fact, it's very simple. You only need to know organic fertilizer, slow-release fertilizer and quick acting fertilizer.
Organic manure, in other words, is farm manure, such as chicken manure, sheep manure, pig manure, etc. it is usually used as the base fertilizer when planting flowers, mixed in the basin soil, to provide nutrients and loosen the soil.
Slow release fertilizer, like organic fertilizer, is mostly used as base fertilizer. An AOLV No. 5 is enough. The fertilizer effect is slow. When using, pay attention to separate the base fertilizer and root system with plain soil.
As for quick acting fertilizer, it is the fertilizer that is usually used to raise flowers. The fertilizer effect is fast. It can be used in combination with the base fertilizer. A large number of flowers is enough. No. 1 is used in the growth period, and No. 2 is used before flowering.
Finally, when it comes to watering, most plants have a general formula for watering, that is, when the soil is dry, it will be watered again. But it's easy to say, but hard to do!
This flower summed up their own watering tips, first of all, the ordinary size of potted plants, if the soil is loose and breathable, it's OK to heft the pot, light and water permeable.
Some flowers, such as bougainvillea, like to be planted with yellow soil. This soil is heavy, so you can't feel the weight with the method of weighing the pot. You can watch the leaves of the plants wilt and then pour them.
There is also a large-scale green plant, the flowerpot is too big to weigh at all. You can insert a wooden chopstick in the pot soil, pull it out to observe the wooden chopsticks dry, and then pour it into the water for a second time.
When the soil dries, it should be watered thoroughly every time. Some flower soil and pots are cracked and often can't be watered thoroughly. You can use a fine spray pot to water it a little bit or a soaking basin to water it thoroughly.
