The correct maintenance skills of thyme will teach you a few tricks to ensure that the flowers bloom luxuriantly and beautifully! Let's take a look at it together.

The medicinal value of thyme has been widely recognized since ancient times, and its medicinal records in China can even be traced back to the Northern Song Dynasty. Now thyme is mainly used for ventilation and relieving pain, relieving colds and coughs, reducing headache and toothache, relieving indigestion and acute gastroenteritis, and can effectively reduce hypertension. In addition, thyme also has strong environmental adaptability, not only resistant to barren, drought and cold resistance and disease and insect resistance, but also has the characteristics of luxuriant flowering, long flowering period, fast growth, rich aroma, purifying air and so on. It is also a good indoor ornamental plant. Many people like to keep such a pot at home. Keep looking down.

Like other plants, thyme can not grow without the care of water, but it can not be watered too much, otherwise the long-term stagnant water will have many adverse effects on its root growth; at the same time, it is not conducive to maintain the good ventilation of the medium. Therefore, we should pay great attention to the grasp of the amount of water when watering, so as to avoid keeping it wet for a long time. In addition, when watering, we should also pay attention to properly spraying some water to its leaves, which can not only clean the dust of its leaves, ensure that the stomata of its leaves are not blocked, but also make its leaves become more green and have higher ornamental value! Keep looking down.

The maintenance of thyme should also pay attention to the temperature of its growth, generally speaking, the most suitable temperature for its growth is between 20 and 25 ℃, so it is not suitable to be exposed to the sun. Thyme has strong cold tolerance, but it will be greatly affected by the high temperature and humidity climate, which will also inhibit the normal growth of the plant and make the plant rot easily. Therefore, in peacetime maintenance, we should try to avoid putting it in a high-temperature or high-humidity environment. In addition, the maintenance of thyme is also inseparable from the sun, so during its growth, it should be moved to the outside to receive sunlight to ensure that it can fully carry out photosynthesis and make the plant grow more luxuriantly. Keep looking down.

Thyme likes warm, light and dry environment, and the requirement for soil is not high. Because its leaves are slightly fleshy, so its growth is easily affected by wet environment, so the usual maintenance must ensure that the cultivated soil has good drainage performance. In addition, it is better to use peat soil as cultivation soil for basin soil. In addition, other media which account for about 20% of the basin soil are needed to facilitate drainage. Secondly, the usual maintenance process should also pay attention to its growth environment, generally speaking, indoor maintenance is better placed in a cool and ventilated sunny window. Keep looking down.

The growth of thyme is also inseparable from the moisture of fertilizer. Therefore, in the usual maintenance process, it is also necessary to apply some fertilizer to it to ensure its growth. In addition, if peat soil is used for cultivation, 5% to 10% concentrations of mature organic fertilizer can be added. During the development of new buds, liquid fertilizer diluted 1000 times can be applied as appropriate. When the plant enters the growth decline period in summer, fertilization is easy to cause the plant to rot and die, so the plant should be moved to the shade for fertilizer-free cultivation. Only by doing the above, can we ensure that the thyme flowers bloom luxuriantly, beautiful and colorful! Keep looking down.

The smell of thyme is rich and fragrant, and it is also regarded as a special spice in life. Whenever cooking seafood and meat, fish and other foods, adding a small amount of thyme powder can remove the fishy smell and make the dishes more delicious. In addition, adding thyme to pickles or pickles as a food spice can also add fragrance and grass flavor to the dishes. Secondly, the contents of carbohydrates, protein, vitamin C and selenium, iron, calcium and zinc in thyme are higher than those in ordinary vegetables, so their edible nutritional value is also very high, and eating regularly is beneficial and harmless to the body. In addition, thyme honey also has a high concentration, and it is also rich in amino acids, which is of great benefit to the human body. So friends who like to grow flowers, hurry up to maintain a pot of thyme at home!
