Who says flowers don't have a hundred days of red? There has been no shortage of flowers on the balcony of Frosts Descent's house since it bloomed in early summer.

Hundred-day grass

Taiwan friends may not believe it, but the hundred-day prairie is originally just a kind of wild flower. After careful improvement and cultivation by many horticultural experts, it became what it is today.

The flowers of zinnia will bloom from early summer to the frost period, more than a hundred days, hence the name. With its tenacious vitality and lovely appearance, it can definitely add luster to your balcony.

Originally, let's take a look at how to plant zinnia. Let this beautiful flower bring you strength and happiness.

Hundred-day grass sowing

One

The seeds of zinnia are large and flat.

II.

Find a disposable container, punch a few drainage holes at the bottom, and then put the soil into it.

Put the seeds into the soil at regular intervals and cover each seed with soil that is about twice the size of the seed.

Three

Fully water the flowerpot and put it in a transparent box with a lid.

The growth process of zinnia

After 1.4 and 7 days, the new seedlings grew out.

Most of the new seedlings are crooked, so you'd better add more soil so as not to topple them.

two。 In a month, the true leaf has grown 4-6 pieces, and the pot can be changed.

3. Change the pot, lay the drainage layer at the bottom of the new flowerpot and put it into the soil.

The director suggested: pay attention to leave at least an interval of more than 5cm between each plant.

4. In two months, the leaves grow more and more.

The director's note: be careful to put the plants in a sunny place to prevent them from overgrowing.

5. After two and a half months, the bud began to appear.

From now on, plants enter the flowering season and need to be sprayed with liquid fertilizer every two weeks to replenish nutrients. Enough sunshine can bring beautiful flowers.

6. In three months, the hundred-day grass blossomed its first flower.

The director suggested that the color of the flowers will vary according to the amount of sunshine.

The director's note:

1. If you want to harvest beautiful flowers, you'd better put the flowerpot under the direct sunlight, and if there is no direct sunlight at home, you must put it in the place with the most sunshine.

two。 The length of sunshine also has a great influence on flowers. The longer the sunshine, the easier it is to produce gorgeous compound flowers. The shorter the duration of sunshine, the greater the total number of flowers.

3. If you want to have more lateral branches, you should prune before flowering.

4. If the zinnia grows too tall, or if the number of flowers decreases, the end of the branch can be cut off for cutting.

5. The ability of resistance to diseases and insect pests is relatively strong, but if watered too much, it is easy to catch downy mildew and show the symptoms of long leaf spots. Therefore, at ordinary times, we should pay attention to watering the deep soil when it is dry, so as not to let the plants be too wet. .
