A question that many beginners who like to grow stone flowers will ask is probably what kind of soil should be used to grow it. The allocation of soil is a profound knowledge for beginners, just like asking someone who can't cook to stir-fry, how much rice, oil, salt and so on should be added is a headache, so it is also a headache for a novice who has just come into contact with flowers and plants to prepare a pot of nutritious soil. Today, let's talk about the soil preparation for growing stone flowers.

For the gods who already have rich experience in growing flowers, it is easy to prepare a pot of nutritious soil, and one can be given casually, which is not really casual, but has great knowledge. just for experienced people, it is extremely simple, what flowers and plants to use what kind of soil, in the heart like a mirror.

My general soil distribution will basically use some coarse-grained soil, usually about three centimeters, and then mix with some volcanic rocks, because there will be many holes on the surface of volcanic rocks, and when watering, water can flow through. at the same time, it increases the air permeability of the soil. Then is it possible to put some peat? Yes, of course, but I sometimes use deer marshes instead, because deer marshes slowly turn into powder in the soil after a long period of weathering.

After these basic substrates are ready, it is time to provide nutrients. Most flowers and plants need a substrate with base fertilizer before entering the pot, and natural stone flowers are no exception. The general base fertilizer is farm manure, grass ash, etc., chemical fertilizer is best used in the later stage of topdressing. Because raw stone flowers do not like fertilizer very much, it would be better to use grass ash when doing base fertilizer work. If the fertility of farm manure is too strong, it may cause raw stone flowers to burn their roots; in addition, some coarse particles can be added to the surface, preferably the same size as the substrate in the basin.

At the bottom of the flowerpot can also be covered with a layer of ceramsite, ceramsite in the basin can play three important roles, one is to drain, the second is to breathe, and the third is to play a role in pest prevention.

In the principle of soil allocation, the most important point is the air permeability of the soil, which is of great help to the growth of the root system, and a good substrate can make the stone flower grow more healthily. It will not be prone to withering, wilting, or even death.

If it is found that stone flowers have not taken root for a long time in the process of growing, you can first consider the factors of climate and season, and then check the growth vitality of the plant itself. then it's time to redeploy the soil.
