How to raise family flowers in winter

Attention should be paid to family flower culture in winter: 1. Pay attention to anti-freezing and heat preservation

Now the housing conditions of residents have improved, and the closed balcony is very favorable for potted flowers to survive the winter; if there is no closed balcony, potted flowers should be admitted at night, and some potted flowers that are especially afraid of cold, such as tropical orchids, pineapples, poinsettias, andrographis andraeanum, had better have room temperature of no less than 10 ℃ at night.

2. Be careful not to water too much

The small amount of water evaporation in winter, coupled with the growth stagnation of flowers and plants under the condition of low temperature, especially the decrease of root activity and too much water, makes the root system not breathing smoothly, which can easily lead to root disease and even rotting root death.

3. Be careful not to apply more nitrogen fertilizer

The absorptive capacity of flowers in winter is not strong, too much nitrogen fertilizer will hurt the root system; at the same time, applying more nitrogen fertilizer will make branches and leaves tender, cold resistance and disease resistance decline, which is not conducive to overwintering.

4. Pay attention to basking in the sun

The light intensity in winter is not high, but flowers need more light to facilitate photosynthesis to produce organic nutrients and improve the cold resistance of plants; for some flowers that bloom in winter, they are also conducive to luxuriant branches and leaves, larger and more beautiful flowers.

5. Pay attention to disease prevention and pest control

In winter, it is easy to cause fungal diseases, such as Botrytis cinerea, root rot, blight and so on, which are caused by low temperature and the decline of plant cold resistance, so the key is to reduce humidity, make plant growth strong and improve cold resistance, supplemented by chemical control. Insect pests are mainly against shell insects and aphids.
