The Beginning of Autumn must pay attention to these points after growing flowers.

Every change of season also means that the test for flower friends is coming again. Solar terms and climate wind are so magical. Just now we were talking about how to keep the flowers and plants safe in summer and how to block the bright light in summer. In a twinkling of an eye, it's time to move the flowerpot to the outside to bask in the sun.

With the advent of autumn, there will be a new adjustment in our way of protecting flowers. The editor collated the following points:

1. Light-loving plants increase sunshine

As the saying goes, "one layer of autumn rain is cool." after the Beginning of Autumn, the sunshine became shorter, the temperature became lower, and the sun was far less violent than in summer. Potted plants who like light no longer have to hide from the direct sunlight all day, and can start to move out of the room and remove the sunshade net.

If the Beginning of Autumn can not give enough sunshine and insufficient photosynthesis, the ability of plants to transport and absorb nutrients is limited, which is easy to affect the robust degree of plants, flowering time and flowering quality.

For example, jasmine not less than 4 hours, crab claw orchid 8 hours, chrysanthemum not more than 10 hours, sweet-scented osmanthus needs 6-8 hours, rose at least 4 hours and so on.

2. The watering policy should be changed.

The temperature is high in summer, the amount of water is generally increased, and the watering time must be in the evening or early morning. After autumn, the temperature drops, the taboo of not watering at noon is gradually broken, and the basin soil dries less quickly than last month, because the amount of water added by high temperature transpiration can be reduced.

The best watering time in autumn is in the morning on a sunny day, because the temperature difference between day and night becomes larger, and it is not suitable at night.

For some flowers in the growing period, it is still necessary to ensure adequate water supply, such as azaleas, camellias, sweet-scented osmanthus, etc.

For those plants that are ready to blossom in autumn, some plants should be watered less during flower bud distribution to prevent falling buds, while others should be careful to keep them moist to ensure that the flowers bloom. For example, Chunlan and Gentleman need to control watering now.

3. When flowers enter the growing period, the amount of fertilizer applied will increase.

The summer temperature is high, many flowers enter dormancy or semi-dormant state, it is better not to apply fertilizer as far as possible. Once improper fertilization, the plant can not bear absorption, it is easy to burn roots and destroy plant health.

Autumn is the peak period for the growth of many flowers. In the growth stage, the rate of plant consumption of nutrients and fertilizer is accelerated, if it can not be replenished in time, it will affect the healthy development of plants, slow growth and poor ornamental effect of flowers and leaves.

Autumn enters the growing period, need to increase the amount of fertilizer are: azaleas, camellias, chrysanthemums, rose, geraniums and so on.

4. sweep away diseases and insect pests before flowers enter the house

Autumn is also a season with high incidence of diseases and insect pests. Which diseases are easy to occur in autumn?

Diseases and insect pests that have occurred in autumn: leaf spot, black spot, anthracnose, Fusarium wilt, powdery mildew, shell insects, aphids, thrips, longicorn beetles, whitefly, red spiders, nematodes and so on.

These problems should be dealt with in time, if not handled well, it is easy to affect the plant health through the winter.

In the absence of diseases and insect pests, prevention should be done in time, and Bordeaux liquid and chlorothalonil can be sprayed to do prevention work.

5. Change the basin in autumn

Changing pots can improve the soil structure of plants, increase organic matter and nutrients necessary for continued growth, and clean up the roots in time to make them more healthy and stretched.

If the basin is not changed in time, the soil nutrients will be exhausted, the plant growth can not be guaranteed, the root system can not stretch, there will be a variety of problems, such as yellow leaves, weak disease, few flowers and so on.

There are also some flowers, due to diseases and insect pests, rotten roots and other problems, unhealthy plants, want to change pots but dare not start in summer, into autumn, should be changed quickly.

The pot plants that are most suitable for changing pots in autumn, such as geranium, cyclamen, calla lilies, magnolia, orchids, succulent plants, etc., can also be changed in autumn.

6. Propagation and cutting should be arranged in time after autumn.

At the beginning of the Beginning of Autumn, the temperature dropped but it was not cold. The sowing of many herbaceous flowers and the cutting of some woody flowers could be arranged as soon as possible.

For example, geranium is suitable for cutting in autumn, as well as ivy, peppermint, Rieger begonia, Milan, chrysanthemum and so on.

The flowers that can be sown in August are: petunia, a string of red, dry golden lotus, sorrel, Fu Lukao, peony and so on.
