Although the geranium has a small flower shape, every time it blooms, it's full of beautiful buds, especially when all kinds of colors are mixed together. When it comes to home, it's dressed beautifully!
After summer, some geraniums grow very disorderly, and even have yellow leaves. As soon as autumn comes, let's prune it first, and cut off the long branches, weak branches and dead branches, and the yellow leaves at the same time.
Without the scorching sun in summer, the geranium in autumn will be exposed to the sun. Move it to the sunny Nanyang terrace or the South windowsill. If possible, move it to the outdoor to raise. Only enough sun can make the geranium leaves brighter!
In order to prevent black rot, the amount of water to be watered for the geranium dormant in summer will be reduced a lot. However, when it is in the vigorous growth period in autumn, you need to start to supplement the amount of water. When the basin soil is dry, it will be watered. Generally, once every five days or so is enough, but remember not to accumulate water in the basin.
Geranium doesn't like concentrated fertilizer. If too much fertilizer is applied, it will burn the root, which is not easy to recover after fertilizer damage. When autumn comes, you can apply nitrogen fertilizer once a half month to make geranium leaves greener and brighter!
At the flower bud differentiation stage, it is necessary to change to P-K fertilizer, No. 2 more than huaduo or 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, to promote Geranium to produce more flower buds and thus more flowers!
If you want Geranium to bloom more, there is another way, which is to pick the heart and top it in time. Because geranium is a new branch flowering, often topping off the heart, after removing the top advantage, can let it how long side branches, so as to emerge more bracts, open more beautiful flowers!
If the geranium at home has yellow leaves, you can check the stem to see if it is black rot.
If the black rot is serious, we should behead it mercilessly and cut off all the parts of the black rot, which is commonly known as cutting baldness, so that it can grow new buds and leaves again!
1. It's a good time to cut Geranium when the temperature is so suitable in autumn. Please don't lose the pinched branches. Let's dry the cut and prepare for cutting.
2. Prepare loose and permeable nutrient soil, or cutting media such as perlite, vermiculite, sand, etc. after watering for once, insert the branches into the soil and place them in a place with good scattering light.
3. Generally, it only takes about 10 days to see the cuttings of Geranium take root! In this way, you can get a new Geranium!
4. Take good care after cutting. The geranium seedlings grow very fast and will grow up and even bloom soon!
