How to raise carnations in winter

1. Light

Because it is a kind of plant that likes light, so in winter, we can put it in the sun on the day when the sun appears. If it doesn't come out, we can also use the light to point at it. Of course, it is feasible not to use the light.

2. Temperature

It still has a certain tolerance for low temperature, but if the temperature is below 9 degrees Celsius, it will not grow as fast as we want, so we'd better use certain methods to raise the temperature in winter. If not, we can also use a membrane to cover it, or send it directly to the greenhouse.

3. Moisture content

Teaching water is still necessary, but we have to control the amount, because it can not accumulate water. Usually we'd better adopt the method of drip irrigation, so that the pain of stagnant water can be avoided and the growth of the plant will be satisfactory.

4. Soil

Its soil must be kept fertile, and the basin should be selected well, and the ventilation and drainage conditions should be good, so that it can be raised well.

5. Fertilization

Fertilization is also indispensable in winter. generally speaking, we have to fertilize every half a month, and there are a variety of fertilizer choices. some of our common thin urea water or the ash of burned grass can provide it with nutrients. However, we should also pay attention to one thing, that is, we should not give it too much fertilizer.

6. Diseases and insect pests

Although diseases and insects may be greatly reduced due to the influence of temperature in winter, this does not mean that there are no diseases and insects at this time. At this time, we had better prevent and cure the disease in advance and use the necessary chemicals to remove the disease and insect. If the disease and insect have been produced without removal, then we can take measures to kill it. For example, we know that leaf spot disease occurs in winter, when we have to keep it dry, pay attention to drainage and ventilation, and use fungicides to treat it every week.
