How to deal with Rieger Begonia after flowering

1. Change soil

When Rieger Begonia flowers failed, most people do not know how to deal with it, in fact, if handled well, it can be full of flowers again. First of all, when the temperature is right, it is necessary to replace the pot soil and remove two-thirds of the old soil. The method is to replace the small pot with a large pot for soil replacement. The soil should be mainly pine leaf soil, and the fertilizer fermented from rice chaff and bean dregs should be added appropriately to ensure that the soil is soft. Because there is no fertilizer in many cities, it is best to replace it with this fertilizer. It is clean and has no peculiar smell. The so-called bean dregs are the leftover soybean milk. It is OK to add some rice chaff and ferment together. Its effect is no worse than pig manure.

2, pruning

After flowering, cut off some old branches, weak branches and diseased branches together, as long as two bud points are left, so as to promote more lateral branches to grow. At the same time, try to ensure that the branches grow outward when pruning. If they grow inward, it will affect its air permeability, and then it will be easy to rot leaves. In addition, if there is a bud tip in the cut branches, do not throw it away. You can insert it into the water, but make sure that the foundation is still there. After half a month, it will take root. After two months, the pot will be full of flowers, so that one pot becomes multiple pots.

3. Post-maintenance

After cutting the branches and changing the soil, you need to water it, and then put it in a place where the sun can shine. After a while, it will grow buds. At this time, you need to apply compound fertilizer to it once a month. It won't take long for it to be full. Then wait until the flower is dead, and then treat it again in the same way, which shows that it can bloom many times, so be sure to make fertilizer sufficient.
