Do not to dry Clivia in autumn and winter?
Many flower lovers will be confused whether Clivia likes yin or yang? Because we often see in books that Clivia likes semi-shady environments and is afraid of direct exposure to strong sunlight. The sun is very bright in autumn and winter, should Clivia be sunny or not?
Autumn: In fact, when it comes to autumn and winter, when we raise Clivia, we also need to properly maintain Clivia according to the local weather. For example, in autumn, the high temperature in many places can reach about 30 degrees. In this case, the sun is still very strong, and if you dry the leaves directly, it is easy to get sunburned.
So in autumn, if the temperature is high and the sun is strong, it is better not to expose the sun. Because when the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, Clivia will develop a semi-dormant state with slow growth, so it needs to be kept in a ventilated and bright environment.
Winter: In late autumn and early winter, as cold air frequently hits, the temperature will also drop significantly. The high temperature in many places is usually below 30 degrees. In this case, Clivia can still be properly exposed.
mainly because the sun will become very warm in autumn and winter, which is still very beneficial to the growth of Clivia. So try to exhale Clivia as much as possible, will be more conducive to the growth of Clivia and also more conducive to the flowering of Clivia.
How to raise Clivia to bloom in autumn and winter?
If you want Clivia to bloom earlier in autumn and winter, in addition to giving Clivia appropriately, you should also pay attention to three points:
⑴. Warm environment
Clivia is a kind of flower that is not heat-resistant and not cold-resistant. It is also affectionately called Fugui Flower by many flower lovers, because when the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, or when the temperature is lower than 5 degrees, it will grow slowly.
Clivia in autumn and winter. If the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, it needs appropriate shade and also needs to be kept in a ventilated environment. This can reduce the temperature and is conducive to the growth of Clivia.
If the temperature is lower than 10 degrees, it is best to move the Clivia indoors for maintenance, because the indoor temperature will be much higher than the outdoor temperature, so there will be no frostbite, which will cause the Clivia to grow slowly.
In addition, when raising Clivia in winter, the indoor temperature needs to be controlled above 15 degrees and below 30 degrees. Only such an environment will be more conducive to the growth of Clivia. If the temperature is too low, Clivia will easily have arrows even if it blooms. also has appropriately increased the temperature difference, so that the temperature difference is around 8 degrees, so that Clivia will not easily have arrows.
⑵. Apply more thin fertilizer
Clivia prefers fertilizer, but applying too much fertilizer will easily cause root rot. And in autumn and winter, Clivia begins to grow flowers and buds. If you lack fertility, it will not be easy to bloom, and it will be easy to catch arrows.
So in autumn, as long as the temperature can reach 15~25 degrees, it is the peak period of Clivia growth. You can use fermented solid fertilizer for Clivia every 20 to 30 days, such as fermented sesame cake fertilizer, fermented sheep manure, or fermented compost. However, Sister Rong usually uses fermented sesame cake fertilizer, which is gentle and does not easily burn roots.
Use fermented fertilizer for Clivia. You can dig some small ditches on the edge of the Clivia flower pot, then put them in, bury them and water them thoroughly.
Add another seven days, applying liquid fertilizer with nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content to Clivia can not only promote the growth of Clivia, but also make Clivia bloom earlier.
When it is winter, if the indoors are colder, you need to stop fertilizing. If there is heating indoors and it is very warm, you can also apply fertilizer appropriately to promote the growth of Clivia and accelerate the formation of Clivia sword buds.
⑶. Don’t water too much
Clivia roots are fleshy roots, which contain a lot of water, so it is more drought-resistant. Water Clivia in autumn and winter. If the temperature can be between 5 degrees and 30 degrees, it is the peak period of Clivia growth, so you can water it appropriately.
The temperature drops in winter and the growth of Clivia slowly will cause less watering to prevent too much watering and root rot in Clivia.
In addition, watering Clivia requires rainwater or slightly acidic water to prevent the use of alkaline water , which leads to iron-deficient yellow leaves in Clivia. In addition, the soil of Clivia's pot will be solidified and not breathable, which will affect the growth of Clivia.
Also water Clivia. Don’t water the water in the heart of the leaves, but water along the edge of the flower pot to prevent heartbreak.
