Clivia , an ornamental flower belonging to the genus Aroma family Clivia, also known as large-leaf Aroma, has thick leaves and bright colors. As a plant that can be seen or viewed, it is very suitable for home maintenance. It is very suitable to place it in the living room, study, aisle and other places.
The maintenance difficulty of Clivia is relatively low. Its leaves can store moisture and are shade-resistant. It is placed in a cool position to ensure ventilation and its growth will basically not be too bad. However, if If you see Clivia sending a "3 signal", please "flip the pot" as soon as possible, don't take it seriously.
Signal 1: Stop growing new leaves
The growth rate of Clivia is not fast and is a typical slow nature. Therefore, many flower lovers are used to it. They water it normally and do not do other maintenance actions. However, in October and November, if the Clivia at home still has no movement at all, you should pay attention;
Because In the past two months, the temperature is relatively suitable. It is when Clivia grows new leaves, and even when raising buds . If it still has no movement for a long time, we must test it and see where it is There is a problem;
[Solution]
First move the Clivia outdoor to extend the sun time. At this time, the temperature is suitable and the sun is relatively soft. Through thorough photosynthesis , it can promote its growth. After sun exposure, check the state of the soil in the pot. If the soil in the pot is dry, water it immediately. When watering, add some water-soluble fertilizer to the water to supplement nitrogen element , spray more water mist in the morning ;
hard Maintaining maintenance for 2 cycles, that is, about 15 days. If Clivia still has no sign of new leaves, or some leaves have not become fuller, greener, or even a little wilted and unspirited;
If it is in this state, it is likely that the root system will be rotten. Clivia can only rely on the nutrients stored to maintain its original state. It must be flipped immediately and trimmed the root system to slowly return to normal;
Signal 2: The leaves start to turn yellow
The second signal is to see the leaves of Clivia start to turn yellow, which is obviously a problem. However, there are many reasons for the yellowing of Clivia leaves. We must judge whether it is necessary based on the specific state. Flip the pot;
① Clivia's leaves are yellow and burnt . In this state, the air around it is too dry and watered in time, which causes the water at the edge of the leaves to slowly lose, resulting in dry and burnt state;
Although yellow leaves in this state cannot be restored, during the later maintenance process, we only need to sprinkle water around the surroundings, or wipe more on the leaves of Clivia, so that the leaves of Clivia can become fuller and will not be burnt in the later stage.
② Clivia's leaf core begins to turn yellow . In this state, Clivia is actually because the soil begins to salinize, or there is no active iron ion in the soil, which leads to problems with the internal circulation of Clivia nutrients. can restore normal by supplementing ferrous sulfate to Clivia;
Because Clivia likes a slightly acidic soil environment, and during daily maintenance, directly irrigation of the roots with tap water with chlorine , or the fertilization frequency is too high, which will slowly lead to salinization of the soil. , Therefore, 20 days between , you need to supplement ferrous sulfate for Clivia to regulate the soil and keep it slightly acidic , and then supplement iron ions to keep the leaves of Clivia green;
③ The leaves of Clivia are soft and yellow . In these states, the root system is likely to be rotten, nutrients cannot be transported normally, and the leaves cannot be supplemented with nutrients, and problems will arise. Therefore, must be repotted immediately to repair the roots to restore normal .
signal 3: Root floats out of the basin
The last signal is to see the root system of Clivia floating out of the basin. The root system of Clivia is all radish roots, and they especially like to eat soil. When the growth rate is relatively fast, not only will the leaves burst directly into the pot, but the root system will also overflow the basin. When observing this state, you must immediately repot and replace it with a larger soil environment so that the Clivia can continue to grow;
Turnover steps:
First cut off the water for 3,4 days, Let the pot soil of Caviar completely dry, then turn the pot soil upside down, separate the pot soil of Caviar naturally, take a small rake, push the root system of Caviar and the soil stuck on it, and check the status of the root system. If there is a problem with the root system of Caviar, repair the roots at this time;
cut off all the rotten roots, apply ganglionic , put it aside to dry, and then cover it again The soil should be selected for loose and breathable new planting materials. generally uses decomposed pine needle soil , leaf decay soil, peanut shells, pine bark , etc. as the main medium. has enough nutrients and is in a slightly acidic state. Then add about 30% of coarse sand, perlite and other particles;
Use this type of planting materials to ensure the root system of Clivia, which can absorb nutrients at any time and breathe normally. Of course, if you feel troublesome, you can buy it now. The special planting material for orchid suitable for Clivia is comfortable and breathable, which is worry-free and clean to use, and it is not worm-catching;
It is best to lay a layer of granular medium at the bottom of the flower pot, then pour one-third of the configured planting material, then put the Clivia drying in it, and then slowly fill the soil. The root system of can be slightly exposed to the basin surface, and finally cover it with a layer of ceramic , water it once and place it in a ventilated and cool position. Wait until the basin is taken.
Summary: Clivia releases "3 signals" that means there is a problem with the root system. It must be "flipped" it as soon as possible to allow it to grow normally and bloom smoothly.
