How do gardenia grow fast?

I. Lighting

If you want it to grow fast, the first thing you need to pay attention to is light. Because it likes light very much, once lacking, it is difficult to synthesize nutrients. It not only grows slowly, but also does not grow well. However, it can not be exposed to the sun for a long time, which will cause it to be sunburned and grow unhappily. Usually we'd better put it on the half-day balcony, so that we can give it the right light conditions, so that it grows fast and well.

II. Flower soil

It is better to give it a weakly acidic flower soil with PH between 5-6, which is more in line with its growth habits. In addition, the soil can be mixed with some rotten flowers and leaves, which can effectively increase the content of rot in the flower soil, give it more nutrients and help it grow faster.

Third, moisture

Although it likes a relatively humid environment, it must not give it too much water, because once there is stagnant water in the flower soil, it can easily lead to its rotten roots. In addition, we can use fermented rice water instead of water to irrigate it, because it is rich in N and P elements, which can make it grow faster.

Fourth, flower fertilizer

Fatten it up in time. Because its growth and flowering needs a lot of nutrient support, once it is lacking, it is difficult to grow, so we need to fatten it in time and increase the nutrients it can absorb. However, it should also be noted that flower fertilizer should not be added too much, because it is difficult for the plant to absorb a large amount of flower fertilizer, and the remaining flower fertilizer will stay in the flower soil, changing the conditions in the soil and affecting its roots.

5. Changing soil

After a period of growth, the nutrients in the flower soil have been absorbed by it, it is difficult to continue to support its growth, we need to replace it with a new flower soil with high nutrient content. But be careful not to change the soil too frequently, otherwise it will damage its roots.

VI. Tips

1. During its growing period, it can be irrigated with diluted FeSO4 solution every two months to reduce the PH of some flower soil and supplement some Fe elements for it.

2. When it appears buds, it can be supplemented with 0.1% KH2PO4 solution, adding K and P elements to help it blossom better.
