The sun-burnt flowers in moments grow wildly in the water, and the hotter the summer, the bigger the flowers!

Water Lily

The lotuses we raise at home are mainly lily and water lily. The plant type size is appropriate and does not take up space. Among them, bowl lotus is very similar to our common lotus, but it is small and can be planted directly in the basin, and some flower friends directly use foam boxes and bowls to raise it!

Water lilies are more special, the leaves will have a gap, often floating on the water surface, the flowers bloom more colors, in addition to the common red, white, yellow, orange, blue purple, the best water lily is a larger water tank or foam box, so grow out of the full pot to look good!

Lotus cultivation steps

Lotus cultivation is actually simpler than flower cultivation. As long as you have sunshine at home, you can raise flowers. Here's how to keep it with Huahua. You must learn it as soon as you learn it!

1. The seeds are cut and soaked in water for 3-5 days.

Lotus seed shell is very thick, with a knife or scissors to cut off its sharp shell, so germination faster, soak in water for 3-5 days to sprout. Huahua also reminds everyone that the lotus seeds for seed must be old lotus seeds. When purchasing, be careful not to buy lotus seeds for vegetable lotus, otherwise they will not bloom.

2, 1-2 days to change the water, wait for the bud to grow small leaves

Lotus seeds can be put into the sun after germination, change water every 1-2 days, pay attention to tap water must be put 1 day before use, otherwise too much chlorine affects growth. About 1-2 weeks, small leaves will grow, roots will also emerge, this time can be planted.

3. Planting

Lotus planting soil is best rice field soil or ordinary original soil, first sieve fine, remove large particles, and then pour 1-3 times with boiling water sterilization, not too much, can cover the seeds and roots on the line (can also miss the nod). It is best to plant a pot, so that flowers bloom more smoothly.

4. Maintenance

Lotus is not afraid of sun, just put them in a good place at home sunshine on the line, the more sun long faster. Pay attention to add water, water is best full, here water must not use contaminated fish pond water and the like, or use dried tap water bar. At ordinary times, you can add some nutrient solution and compound fertilizer, and you can spray some potassium dihydrogen phosphate before flowering.

Lotus cultivation problem

1. Yellow leaves, scorched leaves

If the leaves of the lotus you raise turn brown and rotten, it may be that there is less water, no water change for a long time, poor water quality, too much fat burning, too much crowding in the pot. If you find any problems, you can compare them and see what the reasons are.

Yellow leaves, scorched leaves, rotten leaves, first change water, preferably drying 1-2 days of tap water; remove necrotic stems and leaves, let it grow again, and add some nutrient solution after new leaves grow out.

2, not flowering

Some flower friends complain about slow flowering or light long leaves do not bloom, it is very likely that you bought Suqian vegetable lotus seedlings, if the seeds are true, it will be easy to do.

First of all, we must see whether the light is enough, we must put it in a sunny and ventilated place, add water in time, and the water should be full; if you want to promote flowers, you can add some compound fertilizer or potassium dihydrogen phosphate every week.

3. Insect problem

In summer, as long as there is accumulated water, it is easy to produce insects. In fact, from the initial soil sterilization to timely water change and water addition, these can reduce the probability of insect production by keeping clean and sanitary. It is also necessary to ventilate. It is difficult to raise flowers without ventilation.

If you keep lotus in a large enough container, you can keep a few small fish with solid skin. Small fish of 1-2 cm need 1 liter of activity space. You can calculate how many fish you can keep in the basin ~
