3. Sowing seeds

Prune the rotten roots of the bulbs, then soak them in carbendazim solution; pour the cultivated soil into the flowerpot 1/2 and plant the bulbs; then cover the soil, and the soil thickness can be 1/2 higher than the bulbs; pour water once after planting, keep it in a cool and ventilated place, and move it to the sun after germination.

4. Management

(1) temperature: Lily likes to be cool and cold-resistant, but it does not grow well in high-temperature areas, and it is better to control the temperature at 16 to 23 degrees; if the temperature is too low in winter, it should be moved indoors for maintenance, not less than 5 degrees, which is prone to frost damage; the temperature in summer is too high, it is necessary to strengthen ventilation, and it can not be higher than 30 degrees, which will make it stop growing.

(2) Illumination: lilies like sunny environment. Shade for a long time will lead to poor flower bud differentiation and affect flowering, but the midday sun in midsummer is too strong, which will burn the plants and shade them.

(3) watering: Lily likes to be dry, afraid of waterlogging, high soil moisture will cause seed ball rot and death, so watering can not be too much, just keep the basin soil moist, do not accumulate water, so as to avoid rotting roots.

(4) fertilization: the root system of lily is sturdy and well-developed, it is tolerant to fertilizer, and thin fertilizer can be applied every half a month. Topdressing is needed at flowering stage, and the fertilizer should be based on organic fertilizer, requiring adequate nitrogen nutrition and sufficient phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

(5) Diseases and insect pests: the diseases of lily include cotton rot, standing blight, virus disease, leaf blight, black stem disease, and insect pests include aphids, beetle larvae and mites, which can be sprayed and controlled. Disinfection should be done before planting, and crop rotation is done every 3 years. Weeding, competitive fertilizer, pulling out diseased plants and spraying drugs can be effectively controlled.

When will lilies be planted?

Lilies can be planted in spring and autumn:

1. Spring: about March, when the temperature is about 15 ℃, neither very hot nor very cold, the temperature is relatively stable and will not rise or decrease rapidly, so it is very suitable for seed germination, because the optimum germination temperature of lily seeds is 12-15 degrees.

2. Autumn: probably in August-September, when the temperature is about 15 ℃, just like in spring, the temperature is just right. Sowing at this time can increase the sprouting rate; if it is potted, the time can be delayed and wait for sowing in September-October.

The above is the lily planting method and time introduction, I hope it will be useful to everyone!
