1, water
Generally, tap water is used to cultivate plants and flowers at home, but potted plants can be moved outdoors regularly and drenched with rain. Watering in winter, using normal temperature water, is to put tap water in a bucket next to the flowerpot, and then water it when the water temperature is almost the same as normal temperature. If there is no place to store it, you can also adjust the temperature with boiling water before watering it.
Step 2 apply fertilizer
The growth of plants and flowers mainly depends on nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, so fertilization should be precise and timed. Organic fertilizers, such as fermented animal manure, rapeseed cake, bean cake and other plant organic fertilizers, are very good fertilizers after being fully decomposed and can be used in conjunction with chemical fertilizers. For example, if you apply organic fertilizer one month, then apply chemical fertilizer next month.
3. Prevention of pests and diseases
In early spring, flowers and plants are about to enter the vigorous growth period, and diseases will follow. At this time, the Bordeaux mixture was sprayed. Bordeaux mixture can be purchased or made by yourself. Use copper sulfate 1g, add 50ml of water to melt, take quicklime 1g, dust with a few drops of water, add 59ml of water, fully stir, filter out the residue, and put the two solutions together and fully stir, which is the sky-blue transparent Bordeaux liquid.
4. Extend the flowering period
In addition to these methods that act on a single flower alone, such as using aspirin, the flowering period of most fresh cut flowers can be prolonged. If you pick too many fresh cut flowers at a time, you can put them in a fresh-keeping box and put them in the refrigerator, and then take them out when you have space.
The trick of growing flowers is:
1, particulate matter in life
Usually, it is convenient to collect some tiles, ceramsite, charcoal, pine cones, old loofah and so on, and it is very good to take them home to raise flowers. When planting flowers, these things are broken and placed at the bottom of the flowerpot as a leaching layer, and small particles are mixed with nutrient soil, which is simple to operate.
2. Kitchen supplies
Everything in the kitchen is precious for growing flowers. Simply put, sesame oil can prevent ants from crawling around, and all kinds of kitchen waste can also be made into nutrient soil, organic fertilizer and so on. Among them, for example, rice washing water and bean dregs after grinding soybean milk are still very good organic fertilizers after full decomposition.
It is not difficult to find some empty bottles such as used mineral water bottles or beverage bottles, fill them with bean dregs, add rice washing water, add some peel and put them in the corner for natural fermentation. You can't close the bottle cap. After full fermentation, it can become an organic fertilizer with very high nitrogen content, which can be diluted and applied to flowers.
3. Use the sitting basin method when watering.
A fact that many people know is that 70% of the reasons why flowers and plants keep dying are related to watering. Many novice flower lovers simply don't know the number and quantity of watering, so they want to water more and water easily. In order to solve this watering problem, the pot sitting method is adopted, that is, the flowerpot is put into a container filled with water, and the water is absorbed through the permeable opening at the bottom of the flowerpot. When the soil on the surface of the flowerpot becomes wet, it means that the soil of the whole flowerpot has been soaked. Just take it out for normal maintenance.
