Prepare some healthy and full lotus seeds and make a small hole in the shell, soak them in water for a week. Change the water every day when soaking the seeds. After the seeds germinate, sow them in the pool and cover them with soil. When growing buds or blooming and fruiting, apply the right amount of base fertilizer, weed diligently, and keep the water clean, the lotus will grow.

Planting techniques of potted lotus:

1. Select superior varieties

It is best to choose Manjianghong, fairy, table lotus this strong ornamental varieties, these varieties have smaller plant type, more flowering, colorful flowers, have been cultivated. If you plant lotus root, you should choose lotus root species that are not damaged, grow well and have complete buds.

2. Select a container

The choice of flowerpots is very fastidious, usually choose flowerpots with a caliber of 30 to 60 centimeters and a height of no more than 50 centimeters.

3. Soil requirements

Planting lotus soil is best to choose humus-rich soil, usually lake pond mud. You can also mix garden soil, loess and sandy soil at the ratio of 4:3:3. Never use sewage sludge.

4. Flexible planting time

Because of the vast territory of our country, there is a great gap between the latitudes of the north and the south. Therefore, when choosing the planting time, we must also adjust measures to local conditions. In the vicinity of the Yangtze River basin, it is most suitable to plant around Ching Ming Festival. When it is in the north with higher latitudes, it should be postponed to late April and can be cultivated when the temperature rises to about 15 degrees.

5. Cultivation methods

Put the seed lotus root flat or tilt the top down at an angle of 20 to 50 degrees, bury the seed lotus root in the soil along the inner wall of the container, and pay attention to exposing the tail to the outside of the mud. Only one seed lotus root can be placed in a flowerpot.

6. Watering

In the early stage of lotus growth, it is not suitable to water too much, just keep the water depth of 3 to 5 centimeters. With the rising temperature, the water depth can be maintained at 16 cm after the lotus comes out of the water. In winter, after the lotus enters the dormant period, it is OK to keep the water shallow and there is no need to add water frequently. Never underestimate the management of this link, whether the lotus grows well or not depends on it!

The above is the introduction of lotus planting technology. I hope it will be helpful to you.
