Before you know it, summer has passed quietly, and now it has officially entered the stage of refreshing autumn.
Many people are either buying new potted flowers and plants at this moment, or starting to take care of their own gardens.
As a flower grower who has been engaged in gardening for many years, I would like to remind everyone that if you grow flowers in September, do the following 6 things as early as possible. Then, the flowers and plants in the garden will enter the "crazy growth" mode in the second half of the year.
Of course, if this important opportunity is not seized, it will inevitably lead to "unsatisfactory flower and plant breeding" in the second half of the year.
To be honest, these 5 things are not difficult. Basically, as long as you read this article, even a newbie can do it easily.
recommends friends who are interested in this to seize the time to learn it now.
▼Changing soil for potted plants
The spring and autumn stages are the best stages for replacing soil for plants. Only by replacing all the soil at this time can plants quickly adapt to the new environment and grow healthily and robustly.
Generally around April in spring and September and October in autumn, the ambient temperature can be stable between 15~25℃ for a long time. This state is most conducive to the growth of plants.
▼Dividing potted plants
Generally when dividing plants, we don’t have to replace all the soil, leaving 1/3 of the old soil mixed with new soil to plant the divided flowers and plants. This can Allow plants to adapt to the new environment faster while reducing unnecessary casualties.
For plants with rapidly growing root systems such as Chlorophytum and Chlorophytum, when dividing the plants, try to divide two or three plants of Chlorophytum or Chlorophytum into piles, and then plant them in the same container.
And before planting in the container, we also need to trim off most of the roots, leaving only the most robust main roots and a small number of capillary roots.
At the same time, it is necessary to soak the carbendazim aqueous solution for comprehensive sterilization and disinfection after division, and then dry it in the mixed soil before planting.
▼Pruning branches and leaves
The impact on plants in autumn is the same. It will cause plants to age and cause large areas of yellow leaves to fall. If these withering branches and leaves stay on the plant for a long time, they will only increase the burden on the roots of the plant and continuously consume the nutrients stored by the plant. Therefore, if conditions permit, prune off the aging branches and leaves near the bottom of the main trunk as soon as possible to reduce the plant's growth rate. Unnecessary consumption caused by metabolism.
▼Nursing seedlings
The crisp autumn weather in September is actually a harvest season. At this time, if we want to plant or expand the scale of planting, we can cultivate more plants through sowing and cutting, and spend the least money to get the most. income.
▼The growth and dormancy of plants will be carried out according to the season.
Some plants gradually enter their peak growth season in autumn and require a large amount of nutrients as support to prepare for flowering and fruiting.
Some plants do the opposite. They will enter a dormant state due to the continuously lowering temperature, and even stop growing and die in large areas.
Under such circumstances, if you continue to fertilize, it will undoubtedly be the greatest harm to the plants.
So after autumn, we have to figure out whether the plants will gradually start to grow wildly, or whether they will enter a dormant mode. According to the time, fertilize when they should be fertilized, and free up when they should be released, such as fuchsia , longevity flower , Clivia ..., they will start to grow wildly as they enter the autumn and winter stages. Under such circumstances, we must prepare water-soluble fertilizer 2 to 3 times a month to spray the leaves or water the roots to supplement phosphorus. Potassium is used to promote the differentiation of flower buds and maximize the flowering potential of the plant.
▼Change the place to place
. Natural environmental temperature changes will directly affect changes in light intensity. Some plants need to stay in a place with sufficient sunlight, while some plants are more tolerant of shade and can be moved indoors slightly. In this case, we may need to change the location of the flowers and plants grown in the open air.
Plants facing the sun should be placed on a windowsill or balcony with ample sunlight, while plants that tolerate shade can be moved slightly back. At the same time, the external natural environment temperature is also directly related to the state of plants.
If the natural environment temperature can no longer meet the needs of plant growth, then we need to keep the plants warm and cold-proof as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the plant's foundation and cause unnecessary casualties.
If the plants themselves can withstand the low-temperature climate environment, then they can be cultivated in the open air. After all, only plants that have been baptized by nature will have better disease resistance, cold resistance and survival ability, and will produce the most beautiful plants. Flowers, bear the sweetest fruit.
