How does potted lotus flower not do? Maybe these five factors are causing trouble!

Lotus fragrance is fresh, is one of many people's favorite flowers, now many people also choose to plant lotus at home, but there will always be the phenomenon of not blooming, how to do? What is the reason for this? What factors will cause potted lotus not to blossom?

Factor 1

The variety is not selected correctly.

There are wild and special edible varieties of lotus, which originally flowered less, the growth ability of rhizome was stronger, flowering was less, and even did not blossom. In addition, the varieties are also slightly different in different flowering stages. Some varieties did not begin to bud until early August and blossomed later.

Therefore, before planting, we should fully understand the habits of the lotus, do not blossom late, mistaken for non-flowering.

Factor 2

Lack of light

Lotus is a sunny plant, the growth environment needs good ventilation and adequate light. If growing in shade for a long time, the growth of the plant can not get enough light, or because of the weather, the leaves can not carry out photosynthesis and it is difficult for the lotus to blossom because of the continuous rainy days during the flower bud differentiation.

We had better choose the pot reasonably and choose the flowerpot according to the different plant type.

Factor 3

The density of flower plant is too high.

Excessive density means that there are two or more lotus plants in the basin, or the leaves are denser, block each other, and the plants are poorly ventilated, affecting flowering.

Therefore, only one plant is guaranteed to be planted in a pot, and the leaves of the lotus with dense leaves are pruned in time to increase the light transmittance.

Factor 4

The basin mud is too deep or shallow

The depth of basin mud also has a great impact on plant growth, the basin mud is too deep, the root of the plant is impervious, the growth of flower buds is limited; the basin mud is too shallow, the root system can not fix the plant, the flower bud is easy to shake in the soil, can not develop normally.

Usually small varieties of potted mud are 17cm to 20cm, and the potted soil is not easy to be too loose. For medium and large varieties, the basin mud should be more than 30cm.

Factor 5

Container transparent flower buds do not differentiate

Lotus bud differentiation needs to be in a relatively airtight environmental glass container or white plastic pot is not conducive to flower bud differentiation. Poor development of flowers can affect flowering. Therefore, if there are stomata around the flowerpot, try to seal it with black tape, and try not to use white or even transparent flowerpots.
