When is the season for flowering?

The cockscomb is named because its petals are like a noble and gorgeous cockscomb. Cockscomb is a more common kind, and its ornamental value is also very high. Its reproduction generally uses the method of sowing, which not only has a high survival rate but also has simple steps. At present, the planting area is also very extensive, let's take a look at its sowing method and florescence.

When will the cockscomb be sown (a few months)

1. Celosia cristata is usually sown from April to May every year, and the best temperature is 20 ℃-25 ℃. Keep the soil moist before sowing.

2. When the seedlings of Celosia cristata grow 3 or 4 leaves, it is necessary to carry out inter-seedling operation, pull out some seedlings with relatively weak growth and high density, and transplant when the seedlings grow to 5-6 cm. Pay attention to transplanting with a small amount of root soil.

When does the cockscomb bloom?

Usually, it blossoms in summer and autumn, specifically in the month, from July to October. It is an annual plant. Therefore, its growth rate is relatively fast. Sometimes it can blossom two or three months after sowing.

However, its florescence also has something to do with the region. Because the climate of the south is quite different from that of the north, its florescence will not be different. In addition, its florescence is also related to the time of planting. So autumn is only a rough stage. There will be differences under different conditions.

How to water the cockscomb

I. the principle of watering

When watering, you should be careful not to let the soil of cockscomb accumulate too much water, as long as you keep the soil moist. This can not only prevent them from rotting their roots because they store too much water, but also prevent the flowering time of cockscomb from being delayed.

Celosia cristata can not stand drought, but it is also afraid of stagnant water. if the soil is too wet, it may lead to leaf shrinkage, root rot and even death in serious cases.

2. the method of watering

1. In the initial stage of planting this kind of flower, the soil should be watered thoroughly to ensure that they are in a moist environment, so that the survival rate of this kind of flower will be improved, and it will grow better in the later stage.

2. In the growing period of Celosia cristata, it needs adequate nutrition and water. At this time, it must be watered frequently. When watering, you should be careful not to get mud on the leaves at the bottom of the cockscomb, otherwise the leaves will rot.

3. When the temperature is particularly high in summer, we must ensure that the cockscomb has enough water, and watering can use the method of irrigation, so as to ensure that the cockscomb peanuts can absorb enough nutrients from the water, but we should still pay attention not to accumulate too much water.

4. In autumn, the cockscomb blossoms vigorously and the seeds are about to mature. At this time, the frequency of watering should be guaranteed at least once a day, which is beneficial to the maturation of the seeds. Moreover, it can also promote the flowers of the cockscomb to keep their colors bright and bright for a long time.

5. In case of continuous rain, watering is not needed at this time, but special attention should be paid to the drainage of cockscomb.

6. If careless watering causes the cockscomb to rot and lose its leaves, don't worry. If you stop watering, you will slowly restore the lush branches and leaves. Generally speaking, people who do not understand think that it is dry, so they keep watering it, which will only cause the cockscomb to rot completely.

How to raise cockscomb flowers can be big and colorful.

1. Watering the right amount.

Generally speaking, during the growth period of cockscomb, watering should not be too much, and watering should be controlled after flowering, but it can be watered properly when the weather is relatively dry, and drainage should be carried out in time in cloudy and rainy weather. In the growth stage of cockscomb seeds, it is necessary to water less, which is beneficial to the growth of seeds and keep the flowers beautiful.

2. Fertilization

Fertilization during the growth period is best not to apply a certain fertilizer, but mainly compound fertilizer, in the growth of flowering, cockscomb should slowly blossom, at this time can apply more phosphate fertilizer, and ensure adequate light in order to make it blossom well.

3. change the basin at the right time

Cockscomb is best in the flowering time on the pot, on the pot to be deeply planted, the root can not be scattered, otherwise it will not be easy to survive.

The above is about the general content of cockscomb planting, I hope it will be helpful to you. Although the cockscomb has a strong ability to adapt to the environment, it is necessary to grow some skills in the breeding process to help it grow more colorful and luxuriant.
