Published: 2024-12-22 Author: mysheen

Last Updated: 2024/12/22, Misunderstanding 1: perennial flowers do not need to change pots, perennial flowers do not change pots for three or five years, nutrition will not be enough for a long time. Different plants change pots in different ways. For example, chrysanthemums for too long will have the phenomenon of Lignification, this.

Myth 1: perennial flowers do not need to change pots

Perennial flowers have been raised for three or five years without changing pots, and nutrition will not be enough for a long time. Different plants change pots in different ways. For example, chrysanthemums for too long will have the phenomenon of Lignification, at this time can be rejuvenated by cutting. You can also cut off all the plants above the base and let the old roots sprout again. When changing pots, pruning part of the roots by the way can also stimulate the further development and growth of roots.

Misunderstanding 2: the water is not thoroughly watered, only half of the water is watered.

Tips: watering must be thoroughly, not only "half of the water" (that is, only wet basin soil surface), this will make the flower root water supply is insufficient, resulting in defoliation and even death. Watering should be done "do not dry do not water, water thoroughly", that is, when the basin soil is not dry, do not water, if watering, it should be thoroughly watered at once.

Watering: the trick: bask in the sun frequently and water less

Myth 3: watering for a fixed period of time

It is unscientific to water regularly every few days. Because the weather and the environment of flowers are different every day, the frequency of watering is different, and the watering times need to be determined according to the specific situation.

Myth 4: the bigger the basin, the better.

Because if the plant root system is relatively weak, the water absorption capacity is limited, and the basin is too large, it is easy to produce waterlogging, and the upper plant after rotting roots will definitely not grow well. Generally speaking, the diameter of the basin is twice the diameter of the root.

Myth 5: you don't have to use pottery pots to grow flowers.

When choosing flowerpots, it is not just ceramic pots and porcelain pots, because there are many kinds of substrates now. In fact, you can grow flowers well with all the pots. The water permeability of pottery basin is better, so you can choose when planting flowers at home at the beginning. However, if the matrix is selected properly, a better degree of water permeability can be achieved with any flowerpot.

Myth 6: less ventilation for indoor flowers

Instructions: poor ventilation is the primary killer of flower health, which not only affects the normal breathing of flowers, but also affects the normal growth of flowers. Doors and windows should be opened often to create good ventilation conditions to ensure the normal breathing of flowers.

Myth 7: when the plant leaves wilt, it may be less watered, but it may also be too much watering. For example, in winter, if the potted plant is placed in a room with strong heating, the water in the surface soil will evaporate very quickly, causing us to think that the potted soil is dry and constantly watered. In fact, at this time, the interior of the basin soil may not be dry for a long time, too much watering can easily cause waterlogging and rotting roots.

Myth 8: do not pay attention to watering time, the four seasons are the same

Instructions: the time of watering is very fastidious, the summer noon temperature is relatively high, do not water at this time, if watered, it will make the soil temperature drop suddenly, slow down water absorption, lead to insufficient water supply, resulting in scorched upper leaves of flowers. Generally speaking, the watering time should be around 4 pm in winter and before 10:00 in other seasons.

Myth 9: there are water droplets on the leaves at night

Directions: some people often water flowers at night, or wipe the leaves with wet cloth, but do not realize that there are water droplets on the leaves at night, which can easily cause flower leaves to rot and cause diseases and insect pests. Therefore, we should pay attention to watering time, and wipe the leaves to grasp the time, must ensure that there is no water on the leaves at night, in order to facilitate the normal growth of flowers.

Myth # 10: pour leftover tea to replenish nutrition

Tips: pouring leftover tea into the flowerpot will increase the pH of the soil, easily cause yellowing, and may even lead to the death of flowers. In addition, the leftover tea will breed miscellaneous bacteria in the process of decomposition, which will affect environmental hygiene and consume soil oxygen, which is not conducive to flower growth.

Myth 11: eggshells buckle in flowerpots

After cooking, many people are used to putting the egg shell directly in the flowerpot, thinking that it is a very nutritious fertilizer. But the residual egg white in the eggshell is unfermented organic matter that ferments in flowerpots and attracts germs and bugs.

Myth 12: tea watering flowers

It is also out of the consideration of fertilization that many people are used to pouring tea and tea directly into flowerpots after drinking tea. In fact, tea is also an unfermented organic matter, which is not a good habit and may lead to the alkalization of the matrix.

Myth 13: sick and weak plants need more fertilization

Instructions: weak plant branches, poor photosynthesis, slow metabolism, if you apply fertilizer casually, it is easy to cause fertilizer damage. Just like people, if they are already sick and make up for it desperately, it will not only increase the burden on the body, but also aggravate the illness. The same is true of plants. Therefore, sick and weak plants must not be blindly topdressing, so as not to be counterproductive.

Myth 14: the thicker the better

Tips: if the concentration of fertilizer applied to potted flowers is too high or too much, it is easy to cause fertilizer damage, and if it is light, it will lead to poor growth of flowers, and if it is serious, it may lead to the death of flowers, which is often called "fat death." Fertilization should be in accordance with the principle of "thin fertilizer and diligent application", and "three parts of fertilizer and seven parts of water" is the best.

Myth 15: indoor plants are kept indoors all the time

Tips: florists often overlook a problem, that is, they think that indoor plants can be kept indoors, with little or no movement. But in fact, potted flowers in the indoor decoration time is too long, often due to lack of sunlight, resulting in poor growth, should be timely or every other period of time to move the potted flowers out of the outdoor recuperation. Of course, recuperation should avoid the high temperature period in summer and the low temperature period in winter.

Myth 16: growing flowers next to the TV set

Tips: some people like to put flowers next to the TV set in order to reduce radiation. In fact, this practice is wrong, the radiation emitted by the television at work can damage the reproduction of plant cells, and it will lead to the death of flowers for a long time.
