The Culture method of Violet

Method 1. Soil

Violets are not very strict about the soil, but it is best for us to grow them in a fertile, loose, well-drained neutral alkaline soil. Violet nutrient soil formula: garden soil 5, perlite 2, vermiculite 1, peat soil 2. Of course, none of these proportions must be done, and the proportion should be adjusted according to the planting environment.

Method 2. Watering

Violet pot soil moisture can not be too wet, when watering violets, we should follow the "dry see wet" watering principle, that is, the soil surface whitening should be watered, watering until moist, keep the soil "moist". Violets are usually watered every 3 to 4 days. The lower the temperature, the less water. When the ambient temperature rises, the amount of water should be increased. In general, violets should fully water the basin soil when sowing, and should not be watered directly after sowing. If the soil becomes dry and white, spray can be used or "soaking pot method" can be used to keep the soil moist. Water thoroughly after planting. The water should be controlled to squat seedlings in the early stage of growth to keep the soil dry.

Method 3. Fertilization

Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied when planting violets, and proper fertilization should be applied in the early stage according to the growth of the plant. Do not fertilize too much at once, and apply thin fertilizer frequently, otherwise it is easy to cause overgrowth of plants. When violets conceive buds, apply 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution once a week.

Method 4. Illumination

Violets like light and need all-day sunshine.

Method 5. Reproduction

Violet propagates mainly by sowing seeds. The sowing time is generally from mid-August to early October, and can also be adjusted according to the time spent. If sowing in February in the greenhouse, it will blossom in May, sowing in March, flowering in June, and so on.

Method 6. Diseases and insect pests

Violet is generally prone to diseases and insect pests are root rot, crown rot, powdery mildew, aphids, mites, thrips, nematodes and so on. In order to avoid the damage of these diseases and insect pests, we need to disinfect the substrate before planting and put the planted violets in a ventilated place. If diseases and insect pests have occurred, then it is necessary to timely spray the relevant chemicals for prevention and control.

Matters needing attention in Violet Culture

1. The temperature of violets should be controlled between 10 ℃ and 30 ℃, and the temperature should not be lower than 5 ℃ during overwintering.

2. Violets are prone to diseases and insect pests if they are not adequately illuminated and ventilated.

3. The moisture of Violet basin soil should not be too wet, let alone produce stagnant water.
