Morning glory, as a kind of plant with ornamental and medicinal value, has always been very popular among planting enthusiasts, especially in summer, as the most prosperous plant in summer, it has become one of the flowers that many people must raise. Many enthusiasts who are new to planting also hope that they can cultivate beautiful morning glory, but in practice, things often go against one's wishes, so what are the aspects that need to be paid attention to in planting morning glory? If you don't know much about it in front of the screen, then today's article is very practical.

The cultivation of morning glory is very fastidious. It can be said that from the initial selection of pots and soil to the final fertilization and elimination of diseases and insect pests, we need to observe the situation carefully and deal with them quickly. First of all, in the choice of pots and soil, morning glory pots had better choose pots with certain permeability, such as earthen pots and pottery pots. In terms of size, you can choose according to the shape you want to shape in the future, and the early flowerpot should not be too large. A basin that is too large may cause waterlogging, so you can first choose a smaller basin and change it in the future.

As for the choice of soil, it is generally based on humus soil with both permeability and fertility, but considering the drainage in the future, we can consider adding a certain amount of coarse sand to the soil and placing two broken tiles at the outlet of the basin bottom. After making the best choice of basin and soil, the next job will be much easier.

Morning glory pays attention to a "moderate" requirement for water, and too much or too little water is not conducive to plant growth. If too much, it is likely to cause plant waterlogging, light yellow wilting leaves, heavy direct death; and too little watering is not conducive to the growth of morning glory, especially in summer, may shorten the flowering period, and the number of flowers will also have a certain impact.

Morning glory is a long-day plant, requires strong light conditions, photosynthesis can be carried out smoothly, therefore, whether potted or planted on the ground need to be given sufficient light. If the sun is sufficient, the growth is strong, the leaves are luxuriant and the flowers are numerous; if the light is not enough, the branches and leaves are easy to grow, and the flowering quality is poor. If you can give more than 12 hours of light every day, and the night temperature is more than 10 ℃, it can blossom in four seasons. So if you want it to grow well, you must make sure it is "sunny"!

Morning glory has a long flowering period and needs continuous nutrition in order to blossom continuously. in the early stage of seedling growth, thin fertilizer should be applied frequently, if the content of nitrogen and potassium is high and phosphorus is low, urea can be chosen as nitrogen fertilizer. If plants need to spend the winter, they can properly consider applying less fertilizer in autumn and winter and wait until March when the temperature is warm.

The diseases of morning glory are mainly quenching disease in seedling stage, stem rot in growing period, and the main pests are Plutella xylostella, aphids, leaf roll moth and so on. Quenching disease can be controlled with chlorothalonil and methyl thiophanate 800-1000 times, and aphids can not be sprayed with permethrin, which is easy to cause drug damage and affect growth. You can check the recipe online and make some organic pesticides at home, which may work better.
