Clivia In autumn, it has entered a stage of vigorous growth. Clivia is also an indoor potted plant that many friends especially like. The leaves of Clivia are green and the flowers and leaves are of great ornamental value. It can view leaves in all seasons, fruits in three seasons, and flowers in one season.
Clivia's stems are graceful and elegant, and the flowers are elegant and grand. They can be called the gentleman among flowers. Many wealthy people in ancient times like to raise pots of Clivia at home, which is paired with beautiful, simple and elegant flower pots. Put them at home to make the rich flowers that keep the house in peace.
However, the price in the past was very expensive. With the continuous improvement of Clivia reproduction technology, the price of Clivia has become lower and lower, becoming a flower and plant that ordinary people can choose at will. Some people especially like Clivia and can even raise dozens of pots of Clivia at home. Looking at the thick and thick leaves, it is beautiful. If you accidentally grow a fine Clivia, the price is still very expensive.
A pot of Clivia in the auction market can even reach a high price of hundreds of thousands, which is really shocking. So, how do we want to raise Clivia well in our daily lives? In addition to problems such as loose soil, breathable, suitable watering, and fertilization and lighting, every point will affect its growth. Autumn is the peak season for Clivia to grow, and it is also an important period for it to grow leaves and promote flowering.
If Clivia wants to grow well, give it some snacks, which is easier to use than fertilizer. Make its leaves thick and green, each of them shines brightly, and it will grow vigorously, and flowers and arrows will begin to emerge. So, what kind of snacks do Clivia need to eat to promote growth?
First, give Clivia some soybeans
Soybeans are often eaten by every household. Soybeans are rich in protein , which is an oily crop. Frequently using soybeans to make soy milk can keep people healthy and can also supplement a variety of trace elements. Soybeans not only have a good health effect on the human body, but also give flowers and plants a very good fertilizer. If you have moldy soybeans at home, peanut beans , hemp seed , etc., you can use it to raise Clivia.
Clivia is a plant that particularly favors fertilizer. If there is no fertilizer at home, it is also very good to use soybeans instead. When "feeding" Clivia, you must first fry soybeans, peanut beans or peanut seeds, otherwise they will be buried in a flower pot. After watering, it will easily sprout, which will delay its use of fertilizer. It can be done thoroughly or cooked so that it will not sprout again, so it will be used as fertilizer with peace of mind.
In autumn, it is the peak season for Clivia to grow. When changing the pot, or dig a hole on the edge of the flower pot and bury a few fried soybeans, hemp seeds and other fertilizers, and bury them about four or five centimeters deep. Don’t put too much, just put a few or dozens of them, and use them as waist fat. When watering, it will slowly rot and dissolve, and all the fertilizer effects will be used for the roots and leaves in the flower pot.
Don't bury too much, otherwise it will cause root burning. You can bury some of it every month. This way, apply thin fertilizer frequently, and Clivia absorbs these oily plants. Its leaves will grow thick and shiny, with wide and clear patterns, and grow particularly vigorously, and will also cause flower arrows to emerge.
Second, use rice vinegar as fertilizer
Rice vinegar is also a commonly used seasoning in the kitchen. Rice vinegar is made of fermented with grain. For these acid-loving plants, rice vinegar is also a very good fertilizer. It can adjust the pH of the soil, so that the soil always presents the acidic soil that flowers and plants like. In this way, it can absorb nutrients and moisture smoothly, keeping the leaves oily and green, and there will be no problem of iron-deficient yellow leaves.
If the leaves of Clivia have mottled yellow leaves, it means that trace elements are missing in the soil. You can pour some rice vinegar every month to adjust the soil. When watering, add a spoonful of rice vinegar and water it once a month, which will improve the problem of soil pH.If you don’t want to use vinegar, you can also use chelated iron, organic iron solution, , wood vinegar solution, , etc. to make the soil slightly acidic. In this way, its leaves will not appear, and the problem of mottled yellow leaves in each square are there.
Third, use beer to bathe
Beer is also made of grain. Beer contains a lot of organic matter, and it is also a very good fast-acting fertilizer when growing flowers. Many friends have this experience. After watering the green ivy with beer, the green ivy grows very rapidly, the leaves are green and wide, and grow very vigorously. And rub the leaves with a cloth dipped in beer to make the whole leaves shiny, which is an effect that cannot be achieved by rubbing with water.
Wipe Clivia with beer, which will also allow the pores in its leaves to absorb organic matter, achieving the effect of fertilizing outside the roots. The leaves are very shiny, so that its entire plant shape looks very beautiful. Wipe it once or twice a month to make the leaves of Clivia reach a shiny feeling. It can also make the leaves sufficient nutrients and grow particularly vigorously.
When Clivia has insufficient fertilizer and is caught in the arrow, you can also use beer to mix water into the flower pot, which will have the effect of fast-acting fertilizer. And put it in a dark place, let its stem grow even longer, so that the flower arrows quickly whizz out.
Fourth, use peanut shells as soil
Peanut shells are unique to many flower-raising experts, because after the peanut shells are fermented, they are particularly loose and breathable, and are rich in humus. For flowers with thicker roots and more delicate roots, they are very good soil quality, even stronger than the leaf rot soil you bought. Collect the leftover peanut shells. If they are salty, you can soak them to remove the salty smell.
Then seal it in a large convenience bag and put it in the sun to expose it vigorously. In about one or two months, the peanut shells have been fermented and turned black and they will break with your hands. This is very good to mix and raise Clivia. Add some charcoal soil or leaf rot soil, mix it with some granular soil or orchid stone, etc., which is a very good Clivia soil. Such soil is stronger than the nutrient soil you buy, which is also a unique flower cultivation mechanism for many flower-raising experts.
Clivia Although eating these snacks and staple foods is a waste that is easy to obtain in life, it is a very useful treasure for raising Clivia. When growing flowers, especially when growing delicate plants such as Clivia and orchids, you still have to constantly explore experience. Every flower-raising expert has his own unique experience. He must constantly explore and practice during the maintenance process and form his own maintenance style. This is also the joy of growing flowers.
