The slabs in the flowerpot are knotted. Don't water them and then the roots will rot. I'll water them wrong.

When growing flowers, it is easy to encounter some thorny problems, such as yellow leaves, rotten roots or not blooming. In fact, flower pot conservation really has to be "attentively". In addition to the heart, but also to learn some basic knowledge of maintenance. In the past, I always heard flower friends say, "Flowers grow roots first,"Flowers need one-third of fertilizer, seven percent of water," and "see dry see wet." now I find that it is not enough to understand the terms.

Sometimes, experience is more useful than what you have learned in textbooks. For example, according to common sense, the clay plate in the flowerpot is knotted, what should be done? Many people's immediate answer is: watering! Actually, this is wrong. When most flower lovers are growing flowers, they will water them as soon as they see the potted soil solidify. As a result, the flowers will rot and wither the next day.

When the soil in the flowerpot begins to harden, most of the soil will appear in the picture above, that is, the soil in the pot is "cracked". At this time, if immediately watered, it is easy to cause root rot. Why? Because, once the basin soil consolidation occurs, by the time you see it, the consolidation time is already very long. The bottom of the potted soil and the roots of plants and flowers have long been stuck together!

Watering at this time will not alleviate the consolidation of the basin soil, but also aggravate the adhesion between the root system and the soil, and the nutrients in the basin soil will not be quickly absorbed by the root system. After all, the root system has almost no ability to absorb nutrients in its current state. In addition, when flowers are short of water for a long time, immediate water supply will also cause internal and external imbalance of root cells, which can easily lead to cell rupture and root rot.

The basin soil is hardened, what should I do if I don't water it?

The most effective way is to change the basin and soil immediately. At this time, you don't have to worry about whether it's summer or not. although summer is not suitable for changing pots, the time for potted plants can't wait, so it's better to change pots as soon as possible. When changing the basin, you can choose to do it in the morning or in the evening. Be sure to gently poke away the hardened soil when pot planting, so as not to damage the root system.

If there are signs of root decay, clean it with scissors before transplanting. Just after transplanting this period of time, is very important, especially in the hot summer, after changing the basin, do not immediately put in the sun, it is best to put in a well-ventilated shade for a day or two, the next day a water, so that the survival rate will be higher.

And remind flower friends again that there are many reasons why the potted soil is hardened, first, less watering, second, more fertilization, and third, the use of chemical fertilizer. So in the future, when growing flowers, we should avoid it!

This is the end of the knowledge about basin soil consolidation. Thank you for your reading!
