Do not use water easily, use water with less minerals, such as river water, pond water and rainwater stored by yourself. If it is difficult to get, you can use dried tap water.

2. Water temperature

The temperature of the water also has requirements. It needs to be similar to the temperature of the soil. Generally, it should be watered at noon when the water is warmer in winter, and it is better in the morning and evening in summer.

3. Specific methods

Watering still depends on the situation. If the soil turns white, we can water it. If the pot is already wet, we can't water it anymore, because it can't grow well if it's always wet.

When the temperature is particularly high and very dry, the loss of water is also relatively large, and it is necessary to water 1-2 times a day; on rainy days or when the temperature is relatively low, it is necessary to reduce watering or not watering. In addition, when watering, there is mud splashed on the leaves, we have to wash them with water, otherwise it is easy to let the leaves fall down.

How to prolong the flowering period of chrysanthemum

1. Sunshine

Generally we say autumn chrysanthemum, its flowering period is between October and December, and it needs short sunshine, if we give it short sunshine, its flowering time will be advanced, so cover it from sunlight at any time, let it receive only eight hours of light every day, and continue this operation for more than two months can bloom.

2. Temperature

It is also a way to affect its flowering through temperature, because temperature has a greater impact on its growth. So you can rely on it to prolong flowering. We know that its more suitable temperature is between eighteen and twenty-one, while the differentiation of flower buds is about fifteen degrees, and we can control its temperature between zero and five degrees after the flower buds grow and the colors are displayed, so that the flowering period can be extended by about a month.

3, picking

Picking the heart is also another method, this is mainly to let its branches do not grow blindly, but also good for branching, flowering will be more painful. If we pick them in late August or early September, they will bloom two months later, and if we pick them earlier, they will bloom earlier. Generally, the flowering period of the same species will be extended for about ten days after picking.

How to fertilize chrysanthemum

Habit: Chrysanthemum is good fertilizer, but if fertilization is not appropriate, it will make chrysanthemum excessive growth. When applying base fertilizer to chrysanthemum, potassium and phosphate fertilizer can be used as main fertilizers. Fertilization time should not be too early, can be selected in the beginning of autumn to diaphragm to plant flowering before, this time must ensure that chrysanthemum sufficient fertilizer and water. When applying fertilizer, the concentration of fertilizer can be gradually increased.

When changing pots: To add appropriate amount of fertilizer to the soil, this can make chrysanthemum grow healthier, but it should be noted that the size of the pot should be determined according to the plant, not too large or too small. The flowerpot can be changed into a large pot little by little according to the gradual growth of the plant.

Seedling stage: The amount of fertilizer required is relatively small, and fertilizer can be applied once or twice a week, and fresh water fertilizer should be applied; in its growth period, the seedlings grow slowly, and the fertilizer required will also increase. At this time, the number of fertilizers can be increased, about 5 to 7 days of fertilization; and in July to August, during the period of high temperature irrigation, fertilizer should be reduced appropriately, so that the chrysanthemum in the growth period can safely spend the summer; From September to October, the temperature decreases gradually, which is also the period of the most vigorous growth of plants. The concentration can be increased while increasing the number of fertilizers.

How to cut chrysanthemum

1, first select the branches of cuttings, select a more robust chrysanthemum, and then break the branches from it, generally starting from the center, and then keep the upper part of the branches, about according to the length of 0.2 meters can be cut.

2. The selected branches need to retain a small bud of leaves, and the top of the branches should also retain its terminal bud, and then put the selected branches into diluted rooting powder for soaking, about 120 minutes.

3) Prepare the soil. Generally choose soil containing more nutrients, then put it into the prepared flower pot, then water it, soak the soil, then insert a small hole in the soil with a column, about 7 cm deep, then insert the selected branches, and then compact the branches with soil.

4. After compacting the branches, pour a small amount of water, sprinkle the branches, and then put them in a ventilated and cool place to root.

Chrysanthemum vigorous growth, germination ability is also very strong, but chrysanthemum in the process of cultivation of water requirements or very large. To make chrysanthemum reasonable watering can make chrysanthemum grow better, need to pay special attention to one point is, in the watering time to avoid washing bad roots.
