Propagation method of four Seasons Begonia how to fertilize four Seasons Malus

Four Seasons is a good indoor potted plant, it looks noble and generous, with a little fragrance of its own, and its vitality is relatively tenacious, especially with a long flowering period. this beautiful plant is also relatively simple to grow and has a variety of breeding methods, but it is generally sown. Let's take a look at how it is planted.

Propagation method of four Seasons Begonia

The propagation of Begonia in four seasons is mainly in three ways: sowing, cutting and dividing plants. if commercial cultivation, sowing propagation is used. The seeds of four seasons begonia are small and have a short life span. The seeds that naturally fall into the basin soil often germinate quickly and grow seedlings, but few seeds are harvested if they are not sown in time.

1. Sowing method

East China is generally the most suitable in April-May in spring and August-September in autumn. The seeds should be evenly removed and sown on the fine mud in the basin (no need to cover the soil). Then use the sowing pot to absorb enough water, then cover a piece of glass and put it in a half-shaded place, which can sprout after 10 days. The seedlings sown in spring can blossom in the autumn of that year.

2. Cutting method

It can be carried out all the year round, but there are few branches after seedling, except for double-petal varieties, this method is not generally used to propagate.

How to fertilize crabapple in four seasons

1. Fertilization in spring and autumn: when applying fertilizer in spring and autumn, the four seasons begonia should apply fertilizer with a small amount and more fertilizer. In these two seasons, when inorganic fertilizer or organic fertilizer is used as fertilizer, liquid fertilizer is suitable.

2. Fertilization in summer: if the temperature is above 25 degrees in summer, fertilization is not allowed. Below 25 degrees, fertilizer can be applied once a week for two consecutive weeks. The fertilization time begins after the last flowering period, which will make the four seasons begonia blossom for the second time.

3. Fertilization for seedlings: during the seedling growth period, nitrogen fertilizer should be given priority to, and the amount of fertilizer can be increased appropriately. Nitrogen fertilizer can promote the growth of branches and leaves of Malus sibirica.

4. fertilization at flowering stage: in the flowering stage of four seasons begonia, phosphate fertilizer should be given priority to, and the amount of fertilizer can be increased appropriately, which can make the flowers delicate and bright, and the number of flowers increase. If there is no fertilizer supply during this period, it can lead to the withering of the whole plant and death in serious cases.

5. Fertilization during the growing period: during the growing period of the four seasons crabapple, fertilizers are fertilized once every 10 days to half a month. Fertilizers are mainly composed of 20% rapeseed cake water and bean cake water that have been cooked and fermented. If the fertilizer does not reach complete fermentation, it will produce fertilizer damage, which will cause the leaves of the four seasons begonia to dry and scorch, and even the whole plant will die. Fertilizer precautions: every time after applying fertilizer to the four seasons crabapple, spray water on its branches and leaves with a spray can to prevent fertilizer from splashing on the branches and leaves of the plant, causing the branches and leaves to turn yellow.

What if the four Seasons Begonia rots its roots?

1. Breathable

2. We should be fully aware of the environment it needs, especially the flower soil, because it will affect the growth of the root. If the flower soil is not suitable to cause its rotten roots, the flower soil should be changed in time. Generally speaking, we need to give it breathable flower soil, so if the flower soil is not very breathable, we can replace it with nutritious soil or rotten leaf soil. In addition, if you live near the river, you can use some sand soil, or we can mix the three, so that its roots will grow better. Of course, we should also pay attention to often loosen the soil, so that there will be no problems with its roots.

3. Fertilizer

If you use too much fertilizer, it will also affect it, because there will be more nutrients left, which will cause its roots to burn and its leaves to wither. So the idea that the more fertilizer you give it, the better. If its roots rot for this reason, we have to change the soil or take measures to dilute it.

4. Stagnant water

Too much water is also a big factor affecting root growth, especially this kind of plant does not love water so much, so we need to control the amount, and in the process of watering, we should also pay attention to not pouring water directly into dry soil. In addition, we also need to note that the amount of water actually has a lot to do with the temperature. Generally speaking, when the temperature is relatively high, we can give more water, and we can also take additional measures to spray some on the leaves. When the temperature is relatively low, we can not give it too much water, otherwise the root will definitely be broken. If this is the reason, we have to find a way to get rid of the water, and if there is no way to get rid of it, we will change the basin.

5. Re-cultivation

If we can save it directly, we will directly save it. If not, we must get rid of the rotten roots. Of course, we should control our strength in the process of cutting, and we must not cause new injuries because of our own mistakes. Then we can soak it with potassium permanganate and wash it with pure water, then put it in a windy place, and finally we have to transplant it into a new basin. Assuming that its roots are highly damaged, we need to cut off its fairly intact roots and let it be reborn in rooting water.

Matters needing attention in sowing begonia in four Seasons

1. Selection of containers

When sowing, it is easy to choose a shallow flowerpot with strong air permeability and good water permeability. Soil matrix requirements are relatively loose, fertile, generally speaking, rotten leaf soil and garden soil mixed soil is the most suitable, after the sun exposure or high-temperature disinfection, after layers of screening, to distinguish the thickness of the loam.

2. Treatment before sowing

The containers selected by four Seasons Begonia must be cleaned or even disinfected, and the drainage holes at the bottom of the basin should be paved with tiles to ensure smooth drainage of the basin soil during watering. Spread the thicker matrix in the lower part of the basin, and add fine particles in the upper part, but the matrix in the basin should not be put too much, and the height distance from the mouth of the basin should be set at 2cm. After that, put the spray in the water, expose the basin surface, make the water permeate from the bottom of the basin hole from bottom to top, and wait for the basin soil to be wet before sowing.

Although the good-looking four Seasons Begonia is relatively simple to grow, there are also some common problems that need to be paid attention to in the process of planting. In the face of the problems, first of all, we should find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine to the case. In this way, there will be no big problem. As long as you cultivate it attentively, there will be ideal results.
