1, pruning
Raising in water is the simplest and most successful method. It uses the ability of flower regeneration, cuts off a little stem and branches, inserts them into water, and puts them in a suitable area to make them take root and sprout into new flowers.
To cut its branches, cut it 35 mm below the node, and the incision should be flat without cracks. Remove the leaves under the bottle mouth, and there should be a certain interval between each flower to ensure smooth ventilation.
It grows from February of 65438 to February of the following year and can take root in about 30 days.
water
Wipe it clean and put it in the bottle. Water should not exceed half of the roots, and some roots should be exposed to the water. If it is a newly cultivated flower, there are many root wounds and it is easy to rot, so change the water frequently and wash the bottle and flower roots at the same time.
If it is hot, the amount of oxygen in the water will be reduced, it will breathe faster, the oxygen will be used up soon, and it is more necessary to change the water frequently, preferably every day until white roots grow in the water, and the frequency of adding water can be gradually reduced.
If the water in the bottle has evaporated by 20% to 30%, you can add water, but don't add too much water, or expose some roots to the water. If it is spring and autumn, the water should be updated once every half month; if it is winter, it should be updated every 20 days 1 time.
3. Add fertilizer
Because it is hydroponics, the added fertilizer will melt in water, and once its proportion exceeds the degree needed by flowers, it will have adverse effects. It is best to buy a special nutrient solution, which is based on the proportion of flowers and is very scientific.
4. Lighting equipment
It likes sunshine. If the seedlings are just growing or the flowers are in full bloom, don't put them in strong light. At other times, don't worry that strong light will hurt it.
5. Temperature
It likes cool temperatures. When the temperature is lower than 9℃ in winter, its growth will stop, and when the temperature is higher than 35℃ in summer, it will be injured. Therefore, it is necessary to cool down in summer and wrap it in plastic film to keep warm in winter.

Propagation skills of carnation
1. pot selection skills: choose a tall pot with a large inner diameter.
2. Watering principle: water it thoroughly, and don't water the basin surface.
3. Pay attention to avoid light and avoid drought and flood.
