Strictly control water: add water when the soil turns white. Increase light: Place cauliflower in a sunny location for maintenance to promote growth. Scientific fertilization: During the breeding period, fertilizers mainly composed of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are applied to prepare for flowering. Control time: Early-maturing varieties are generally sown every summer, and mid-late-maturing varieties are sown in spring.
Ways to prevent cauliflower from blooming
1. Strictly control water
If cauliflower does not bloom, it may be due to excessive watering. During the breeding period, If too much water is provided, the roots will accumulate water and rot, and will not be able to provide nutrients to the plants. Therefore, during later maintenance, water must be strictly controlled and the water will be replenished when the soil turns white.
2. Increase light
Cauliflower is suitable for growing in an environment with sufficient light. Lack of light will cause the plant to grow elongated and not produce flowers. During the breeding period, cauliflower should be placed in a A sunny position promotes growth. If the light is too strong in summer, shade should be provided.
3. Scientific fertilization
The cauliflower bulbs are the product of flower bud differentiation. During the breeding period, if only nitrogen fertilizer is provided, there will be no flowers. Generally, during maintenance During this period, fertilizers based on phosphorus and potash should be applied to the plants to prepare for flowering.
4. Control the time
If the sowing time of cauliflower is wrong, there will be no flowers. Planting should be based on the variety of the plant. For example, early-maturing varieties are generally planted between 7-8 in summer every year. Sow seeds in March, and mid-late maturing varieties are suitable for sowing in March to April every spring.
