People who grow flowers, whether they are novices or great gods, will more or less encounter this situation on the road of growing flowers: the soil of growing flowers is relatively soft and highly absorbent at the beginning, and later, when watering, the water seeps slowly.

This is a thing that every flower grower will experience, that is, the consolidation of the soil.

The harm of soil consolidation is great. Let Huahua tell you something about it. What is wrapped in the soil is the root of the plant. If the soil is hardened so that the soil cannot absorb water and nutrients, then the root of the plant cannot absorb water and nutrients. In the long run, the root of the plant will become dry and exhausted due to lack of water and nutrients. Of course, the rhizome of the plant will also cause the plant to dry up and the leaves will turn yellow because of insufficient water and nutrients. The end result is the death of the plant.

So when we find that the soil is hardened, we must remember to deal with it in time. So how to deal with it?

The first thing that comes to mind for many friends is watering to soften the soil, or shoveling the soil with a small shovel. Huahua is here to remind you that this kind of practice is absolutely impossible. Why? Because the soil becomes a little harder after hardening, it is easy for us to increase our strength when we use a shovel. We don't know where the root is, and it is easy to destroy the root of the plant with a shovel. So this kind of practice is not advisable.

Someone must say that watering is all right, right? In fact, more watering may not make the soil soft, because the soil has already hardened and the ability to absorb water will not be too strong. It can be said that more watering is equivalent to useless work.

So what's the right thing to do? That is: change the basin!

When the soil hardens, we can only change the pot for the plant, and the plants at this time have been raised for a long time, so it's time to change the pot. Generally choose to change the basin in a suitable temperature and environment, not too fastidious, just comfortable.

Need to pay attention to is to handle gently, because the root of the plant is connected to the soil, a little carelessly may tear the root of the plant, oh, we must pay attention to it. After we peel the soil off the roots of the plants, we take a look at whether the roots of the plants are healthy, and use a pair of small scissors to trim off the aging and decaying roots of the plant roots, so that the plants will grow stronger when they are replaced with pots.

Today, Huahua's little knowledge of popular science will be over for everyone! About soil consolidation, how to do after soil consolidation, these contents are included in the article, oh, interested friends can read it several times!
