The latest carnation water cultivation techniques

Carnation is a kind of flower native to the Mediterranean region, which is the most widely used in the world, and it is also one of the flower varieties that many people like to cultivate at home. Most of the carnations are potted, but in fact it is also a kind of flower species that can be planted by hydroponics, so how should carnations be hydroponically cultivated? The following pro-agricultural network will introduce to you the skills of carnation aquaculture.

I. tailoring

The first step of water-raised carnations is to cut carnations. Carnations grow mainly from December to February of the following year. At this time, hydroponic culture takes about a month or so to take root. The specific cutting method is to cut its branches, which is usually cut 35 mm below the node, and the cut should be flat without cracks. Pay attention to cutting off the leaves at the mouth of the bottle. Make sure there is enough air between the flowers and branches.

2. Aquaculture

Add the water to more than half of the root, and remember to keep part of the root out of the water. If it is a new flower, the root wound is more, it is easy to rot, so often change the water, at the same time to wash the bottle and flower root. If it is hot and hot, the amount of oxygen in the water will be reduced, its breathing will be faster, the oxygen will be used up quickly, and the water should be changed more frequently, preferably every day, until the white roots grow in the water can slowly reduce the number of times to add water. In addition, if the water should be added in time after volatilization, the water should not be too much, and the root should also be exposed.

III. Fertilization

Usually we choose the nutrient solution when raising water, because if we apply fertilizer, it will dissolve directly in the water, and if the concentration is a little higher, it will have a great impact on the flowers, so the best thing is to use a special nutrient solution, which is convenient and scientific.

Fourth, lighting

Carnation is a kind of light-loving plant, if it is a newly growing flower, be careful not to receive strong light, if it grows more vigorously, you do not have to worry about the strong light will hurt it.

5. Temperature

Carnations prefer cool temperatures, water, then pay attention to the living environment, the minimum not less than 9 ℃, otherwise the carnation will stop growing, and in summer if the temperature is higher than 35 ℃, there is a possibility of burns, so it is best to cool the carnation in summer and keep warm in winter.

The above is the relevant knowledge of carnation aquaculture. If you want to grow carnations at home, you might as well try the method of hydroponics. Compared with traditional methods, hydroponics is cleaner, more convenient to manage, and more suitable for planting at home.
