The cultivation method of gladiolus is a common plant in our daily life. Many people will purchase some gladiolus for display when improving the home environment, and the ornamental value of gladiolus is also very high. Let's take a look at the cultivation method of gladiolus for everyone.

Culture method of gladiolus 1 1, sufficient moisture

When cultivating gladiolus, it is necessary to adjust the watering frequency according to the change of seasons. When maintaining gladiolus in spring and autumn, it is necessary to water it every 4-5 days. When watering, it is necessary to completely soak the soil to keep it moist. When maintaining gladiolus in midsummer, it is necessary to water it every 2-3 days to avoid the dry leaves of plants due to lack of water.

2. Provide nutrients

Gladiolus needs sufficient nutrients in the growth process. When cultivating Gladiolus, if the nutrients are insufficient, it will lead to plant malnutrition, which will make the leaves of Gladiolus yellow. It is necessary to apply nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers every 20-25 days, and gradually increase the proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers after Gladiolus blooms, so as to make Gladiolus grow more vigorously.

3. Lighting conditions

Gladiolus gladiolus is sunny. When cultivating Gladiolus gladiolus, it needs to be placed in a bright place to receive sufficient light, so that Gladiolus gladiolus can fully photosynthesis and promote the vigorous growth of plants. When the light is too strong, it also needs to cover it with a sunshade net to avoid the plants from being burned by strong light.

4. Suitable temperature

Gladiolus is suitable for growing in a warm environment. If the environmental temperature is too low when cultivating Gladiolus, the plants will be frostbitten, which will make the leaves of Gladiolus yellow and dry. It is necessary to move Gladiolus to a warm room for maintenance, and also to control the environmental temperature between 18 -25 degrees, and provide nutrients for the growth of Gladiolus.

Cultivation method of gladiolus 2. How does gladiolus reproduce?

1, sowing and breeding

The sowing and reproduction of gladiolus can be carried out in spring and autumn, and it can be carried out in the way of picking and sowing. Choose healthy seeds and soak them in water for several hours. Finally, dry them and sow them in the soil. Keep the pot soil moist and it will take root and sprout in about one month. Waiting for the buds to grow, we must take care of them.

2, sub-ball propagation

The ball-dividing propagation can be carried out in April-May, and the well-developed bulb of gladiolus is planted in the soil, and the diameter of the bulb should be about 5 cm. Cover lightly with a thin layer of soil, and water moderately to keep the moist environment. It takes about a month to grow seedlings, and finally it will bloom in July-August.

3. Cutting the ball to breed

First, prepare healthy Bulbs of gladiolus, cut the Bulbs longitudinally with a disinfection knife, and divide them into 2-4 pieces, each with more than one bud and some stems. After cutting, smear it with plant ash or charcoal powder. Dry and plant in soil, and each bulb can develop into an independent plant soon.

4. Tissue culture and propagation

Tissue culture propagation is to take the lateral buds of flower stems or bulbs, peel off a layer of green leaf sheaths, remove the buds, inoculate the explants after disinfection, and conduct tissue culture on the culture medium. The bulbs will begin to form in about two months, and the seeds can be harvested in 4-6 months.
