Many friends have raised Clivia at home. Its leaves are thick and straight, neat, elegant and elegant, and it is a very noble indoor potted plant. It likes cold plants very much. In summer, due to the hot weather, Clivia also enters a dormant period at this time. After autumn comes, the temperature gradually becomes cooler, especially after the beginning of autumn, Clivia has begun to slowly resume growth, and its growth rate will gradually become faster and faster.
So in this season suitable for Clivia growth, what should we do to make Clivia grow better? If you want Clivia to grow better, the following four things must be done in place. As long as your friends make it well, Clivia will grow very vigorously and the root system will become more developed. When we keep its leaves and roots well, it can naturally bloom beautiful flowers. Good quality and high value.
So how should we maintain Clivia in autumn? In fact, it is very simple. Just figure out its growth habits and do these few steps.
1. Autumn is a good time to repot and change soil
Clivia This plant consumes a lot of nutrients, especially when we grow Clivia at home, most of which use potted plants. In this way, the nutrient consumption of soil in the pot is relatively fast. If we don’t repot and change soil for Clivia for a long time, its growth will inevitably be affected, especially after the beginning of autumn.
Its growth has begun to recover and requires a lot of nutrients. At this time, if we do not repot and change soil in time, it does not have enough nutrients to maintain growth. Especially for Clivia that has been maintained for one or two years, it is best to change a flower pot in autumn, repair the root system, and replace it with loose, breathable and nutritious soil. In the autumn season, you can get the most nutrients, so Clivia will naturally grow rapidly and have thick and green leaves. Be prepared for blossoming.
Before changing the pot, it is best to stop watering. After the soil in the pot drys for a few days, it will become easier to depot. When changing the pot, first pull its roots and pot soil out of the flower pot together, and then slowly shake off the old soil on the root system. We will trim the root system that is not growing well, apply some mutant , and then repot it with soft and fertile soil.
We can configure the pot soil ourselves or buy special leaf rot soil. If you have tree bark, river sand, peanut shells, pine needle soil, are all very suitable materials for soil configuration, and you can mix them together to make nutrient soil. When basining Clivia, you must be careful when filling the soil to ensure that the roots are covered with soil to avoid the problem of root overhead.
2, continue to top dress up
Usually after the beginning of autumn, the growth rate of Clivia will become faster and faster. The little nutrient in the soil alone is far from enough. So in autumn, Clivia should be supplemented with nutrients every half month. I personally recommend liquid fertilizers, which will be better absorbed. Of course, in November, Clivia can be replenished with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate, to promote flowering and bud development. Only with sufficient fertilizer supplementation can Clivia bloom and beautify.
You can also use leaf fertilizer, add a certain amount of water according to the ratio of the instructions, and then spray or wipe it on the surface of the Clivia leaves to allow its leaves to absorb nutrients. As long as the nutrition is in place, the leaves of Clivia will grow and turn green quickly, and the leaves will absorb more light. photosynthesis will be performed. The plant will grow strongly and will naturally have vitality to bloom.
3, turn the flower pot regularly
Many friends put Clivia on the balcony or terrace to maintain them. In this case, it is easy to block part of the sunlight by surrounding buildings or walls of houses. This will cause uneven light reception of Clivia, which will lead to asymmetric growth state of the plant.
Usually, the sun is shining and the sun grows better, while the sun is not shining and the sun grows worse. Clivia in this state obviously looks not very beautiful. Therefore, in the process of maintaining Clivia, in addition to putting it in a place with sufficient light to promote flowers, it is best for friends to turn the flower pot every two weeks, so that the light-receiving area of the plant can be more even and the growth of leaves on both sides is more symmetrical. Such Clivia has good quality, neat plants, and natural and high-end flowers.
4, control the moisture
0 The weather in autumn is cool, suitable for the growth of Clivia, but at the same time, the evaporation rate of moisture is relatively fast at this time. But when we water, we should not blindly implement it. We should follow the principle of drying and watering thoroughly to avoid the problem of water accumulation in Clivia due to excessive water.
We can pick up the flower pot to weigh the weight and determine whether the Clivia is in a state of lack of water, or use a humidity detector to determine whether the Clivia is deficient, and then replenish it with moisture. If you just water it on time and do not replenish the water according to the actual situation, it is easy to cause water accumulation in Clivia and eventually lead to root rot.
Only by mastering the growth habits and growth rules of Clivia can Clivia recover in the dormant state in summer, grow vigorously, and quickly nurture flower buds and bloom.
