How to raise a gentleman's orchid in winter?

In the north of Yangtze River, Clivia needs indoor maintenance in winter. The suitable temperature for Clivia growth in winter is 15℃~20℃. If it is lower than 5℃, it will suffer from different degrees of light growth. Therefore, clivia in winter room to maintain above 10℃. If the room temperature does not reach, and there is no greenhouse and warming conditions, the flowerpot can be placed in the lee of the sun, and then plastic film as a frame cover in the flowerpot, can play a warming role. After shooting, the temperature can be kept at about 15℃. During flowering, the temperature can be reduced to 8℃~12℃ to prolong flowering.

Clivia prefers fertilizer to pre-flowering fertilizer

Although winter is not the growth season, but in the pre-flowering reproductive growth period, in order to promote more flowers, flowers, must be applied in winter after a solid fertilizer, after every 15 days or so, can be combined with watering, apply a decomposed horseshoe water or light fishy water. After 5 days, apply solid fertilizer again. When applying solid fertilizer, you can open the pot soil along the edge of the pot, mix the fertilizer into 2 cm deep, and do not directly contact the roots to avoid burning the roots. When applying liquid fertilizer, it is best to combine watering at the same time when the pot soil is dry, which is more conducive to root absorption. At the same time, 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate or potassium superphosphate diluent can be sprayed to the plants for topdressing.

To control the amount of water in winter, the light is weak, the temperature is low, and the evaporation is small. Therefore, the water demand is correspondingly reduced.

In addition, Clivia has developed fleshy roots, which can store more water and have certain drought resistance. The amount of watering should be properly controlled. In line with the principle of "not dry, not watered, watered thoroughly", watering can be done once every 5 to 7 days. Such as excessive watering, not only the pot soil temperature decreases, and lead to lack of oxygen in the soil, light will affect the root growth, reduce the absorption function, heavy will cause root rot.

To light enough sunshine is an important condition for the vigorous growth of Clivia, especially in the winter when the light is weak, to meet its needs for light, it must be placed in a position with sufficient light, so that it can receive more than 8 hours of light in sunny weather. In case of continuous rain and snow weather, electric lights can be used to increase illumination. In addition, clivia and other flowers also have a habit of growing to light. In order to make the plant grow evenly and keep the plant shape beautiful, it is necessary to turn the pot once every 6 to 10 days (that is, change the orientation of the flowerpot).

To prevent clip arrow Clivia in pregnant bud can not be out of flower scape, can not flower on time phenomenon, known as "clip arrow"

the main causes were inappropriate temperature and improper fertilizer and water management. Prevention methods: one is heating up. When the flower buds emerge, the room temperature should be raised to above 20℃ immediately, and the temperature difference between day and night should be kept at about 12℃ at night, so that the temperature difference between day and night reaches above 8℃, which is conducive to the growth of flower buds; secondly, sufficient fertilizer should be applied before flowering to ensure sufficient nutrients for the growth of flower buds. This will encourage rapid flowering. During this period, the basin soil should not be too dry, nor too wet, should maintain a moist state, conducive to root absorption of nutrients.

How to grow Clivia in winter

fertilization

Winter is the growing season of Clivia, which requires more nutrients, so it is very important to apply winter fertilizer. Apply cooked soybeans, fried sesame seeds or compound fertilizer before moving indoors. Move to indoor 15~20 days fertilization once, can use animal manure soaking solution irrigation roots. In short, fertilization should adhere to a principle of "decomposition and light application" to avoid causing fertilizer damage.

watering

Clivia has fleshy roots, afraid of ponding; waxy layer, water is not easy to evaporate. Therefore, watering should not be too much, winter temperature is low, evaporation is slow, watering should be less and less. Water and fertilizer should be combined, watering after fertilization, keeping the basin soil moist, and avoiding water immersion irrigation.

insulation

Clivia grows well at 15~25℃, stops growing at 10℃ and suffers freezing injury at 0℃. Therefore, in winter, heat preservation measures must be taken to prevent plant frostbite. The temperature is maintained at 18℃ after arrow extraction. If the temperature is too high, the leaves will become thin, the flowers will be small and the flowering period will be short; if the temperature is lower than 18℃, the flower stems will be short and the flowering will be early, which will affect the viewing.

dimming

Clivia likes to scatter light, just fine in winter. When winter comes, move the pot indoors into the sun. Especially before flowering, to ensure adequate light, conducive to bud. After flowering, proper cooling and ventilation are beneficial to prolong flowering.

protect ye

The health of leaves is the basis for flowering, and it is necessary to maintain the health of leaves and keep them clean. The specific methods are as follows:

Clean the leaves, spray the leaves with clean water, and keep the leaves clean.

Second, timely spraying of fungicides to prevent the occurrence of leaf spot disease.

How does the summer season of the summer season affect the quality of the flowers?

Clivia, known as the "flower of wealth", is loved by people because of its beautiful appearance and good decoration. It is a semi-negative plant, like cool, but to stay away from strong light and high temperature, that summer is exactly when the weather is hot and the temperature is high, how should the summer clivia be raised? When is the flowering time of Clivia? Today, Xiaobian will explain to you the flowering time of Clivia and the relevant knowledge of how to raise Clivia in summer. Let's learn about it together!

The flowering time of Clivia

It blooms all year round, mainly in spring and summer, some in June and July in summer, and some in winter, about New Year's Day to Spring Festival. The flowers bloom for about 15 to 20 days.

How to Care for Clivia after Blooming

When it blooms, we have to take care of it carefully. If its pot is too small and has seed plants, we can change the pot and soil, and then carry out sub-propagation. If it is already seeded, then we should suspend turning pots and replace them until early winter, when the seeds will be harvested and then turned pots for soil. Clivia seeds about every 10-15 days after the application of a thin compound fertilizer, so that it can continue to grow leaves and seeds full. But we must not give it into thick fertilizer or raw fertilizer, otherwise not only the tip of the leaf will yellow, but also the seeds will fall off. At the same time, it should be placed in a ventilated, cool and semi-shady place to prevent the sun from shining or direct rain. The basin soil should be slightly dry and should not be too wet.

How do you grow clivia in summer?

1. Avoid strong light and keep ventilation

It is semi-dormant in summer, so we need to keep it in a cool, ventilated place, away from strong sunlight, so we can also receive some astigmatism. Or we can also bury clivia in the sand and spray water toward the sand in the morning and evening, which can also achieve the purpose of cooling.

2. Pay attention to watering

Due to the high temperature in summer and the rapid evaporation of water, its water demand is also very large, about a week or so to irrigate water, and we have to irrigate water with rain or precipitation for 24 hours to prevent soil deterioration.

3. Pay attention to fertilization

In summer, because it will enter a semi-dormant state, we have to stop fertilizing it, so put it in a cool and ventilated place, and then apply a thin bean cake liquid fertilizer once every 10-15 days, and keep the soil dry before fertilization.

This kind of plant has very good ornamental sex already, can beautify our room again, and it still can rise to purify air, edify the effect of sentiment. But because it is a shade-tolerant plant, we have to keep it in a cool and ventilated place in summer, so that it can grow better. The above is Xiaobian and everyone explained the flowering time of Clivia and the relevant knowledge of how to raise Clivia in summer. I hope I can give you some reference!
