Continue to soak in the water, the bud will break out in 5-7 days, and it will grow to about 8 cm in 10 days.

During this period, you can drop some nutrient solution in the water to accelerate the growth and development of the buds. In about 20 days, some young leaves stretch out into an oval shape, which is ready to be put on the pot.

4. colonize the upper basin.

The cultivation of lotus is generally half soil and half water, the soil ensures the nutritional needs of lotus, and the water ensures the moist environment that lotus needs.

Just choose the sticky ordinary soil, first bask in the sun, then pour boiled water to sterilize and dry.

The dried soil is placed in a flowerpot and planted with seeds at a depth of about 3-5 cm.

If the soil is not sticky enough and spreads easily in water, you can cover the soil with a layer of sand. The sand had better be washed and sterilized with boiled water or carbendazim.

Pour clean water, the water depth is about 5-7 cm, turbidity is normal

It will be much better after 2-3 hours of precipitation.

5. Daily maintenance

Lighting:

Lotus likes light, sufficient light can ensure the growth temperature, so no matter how the sun is not afraid.

Amount of water:

During the seedling period, the water depth is 5-7 cm, which ensures the respiration of the seedling. As the lotus grows, the water content should be increased slowly, and the mature seedling should be kept at a depth of 8-12 cm.

Compared with other flowers, lotus does not require much fertilizer. Just add crushed peanut shells to the soil before flowering.

All right.
