How to choose hyacinth bulb? Guide to hydroponic culture and maintenance of hyacinth

Hyacinth, which we often call foreign daffodils and five-colored daffodils, is native to southern Europe, the eastern Mediterranean coast and Asia minor. The petals are white, blue, purple, pink and so on, with a mood of "good luck, warmth and harmony". Today, the editor will talk about hyacinth hydroponics and conservation guidelines.

First, how to choose hyacinth bulb?

Hyacinth bulbs should choose bright epidermis, strong texture, no disease spots and insect population is better, now many hybrid varieties are more complex color, if you do not understand anything can consult the shopkeeper, understand clearly in the purchase.

2. Hydroponic culture method

The main results are as follows: (1) the stored bulbs are dug up from October to November every year, and the robust bulbs with large diameter, intact stem disk and full terminal bud are selected, peeled off and washed with clean water, and placed in special gourd-shaped utensils, or placed in a transparent container with a relatively small mouth, or fixed with a solid matrix in a shallow container. When hyacinth hydroponics choose a container, it is best to choose a smaller one, which is beneficial for the bulb plate to sit firmly at the mouth of the bottle.

(2) to inject water into the container, the amount of water injection should reach the bottom of the bulb disk, so that it is just in contact with the water surface, it should be noted that the bulb should not touch the water, which is beneficial to induce the root of the base and elongate into the water.

(3) move the hyacinth to a cold, cool and dark place, or use a black cloth to block the light, and wait a month for new roots to be sent out.

III. Maintenance guidelines

(1) temperature and light

The suitable temperature is 2-6 degrees in rooting stage, 5-10 degrees in bud germination stage, 15-18 degrees in flowering stage, and 1-2 hours per day in the initial stage. With the gradual growth of hyacinth, the light can be increased to 7-8 hours.

(2) changing water

Hyacinth sends out water bacon and moves to a place with strong light, changing the water every 7 days.

(3) fertilization

Hyacinth can be added with nutrient solution when changing water, which is beneficial to hyacinth flowering.

0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate diluent is sprayed weekly before hyacinth blossoms, or the nutrient solution can be changed once a month.

(4) Disease and pest control

Hyacinth in hydroponic culture has fewer diseases and insect pests, and artificial capture is the main method if there are insect pests.

How to cultivate hyacinth by water? Water cultivation and protection of hyacinth

Hyacinth habits like the sun, cold-resistant, suitable for growing in a cool and humid environment and loose, fertile sandy soil, avoid stagnant water. Like warm and humid winter, cool summer slightly dry, sunny or semi-overcast environment. Like fertilizer, suitable for fertile, well-drained sandy loam. It can be planted in the ground, potted or raised in water.

1. Put the seed head in a wide-mouthed glass bottle in December and add a little charcoal to help with disinfection and antisepsis. The amount of water is limited to not touching the bottom of the bulb. Then put it in a dark place and cover the bottle with a black cloth. Room temperature 5-10 ℃. Because darkness helps hyacinth take root. After more than 20 days, the root sprouts out in total darkness, and then it can be exposed to the sun outside.

2. After the root system is fully grown, move to the bright place where there is no direct light, the temperature is controlled above 10 ℃, and the water is changed once every 2-3 days to keep the water clean. If the water is immersed to the root, there is no need to water or fertilize.

3. after the leaves grow, gradually increase the light, and after budding, you can accept direct light, but you should pay attention to changing the direction of receiving light frequently to make the leaves and stems grow strong and straight, so as to prevent them from tilting to one side. The temperature gradually rises to about 20 ℃ and the water is changed every 3-4 days until the flowers fade.

4. After the hyacinth flower fades, the flower stem should be cut off, the bulb should be taken out and planted in the basin, so that the bulb can be enriched. When the leaves wither, dig out the bulbs and collect them, and they can be rejuvenated in the basin in autumn. If the bulb is well preserved, it can still blossom in the next year, but the flower will be short and the scape will atrophy, mainly because the bulb has degenerated. Therefore, hyacinth cultivation is better to buy new bulbs after planting for one year.

The above is the breeding method of hyacinth introduced by the succulent garden. I hope it will be helpful to you. Welcome to continue to pay attention to the succulent garden and learn more about hydroponic flowers!

The main points of planting hyacinth water cultivation and protection

The main points of planting hyacinth water cultivation and protection

1. Water is injected into the vase and the water surface is 2-5mm away from the root disc (do not soak the whole bulb in water to ensure that the root breathes freely). As the root grows, the water level gradually lowers, prompting the root to grow neatly. two。 The most suitable rooting temperature is 9 ℃. During rooting, the vase can be wrapped in black paper to avoid light to facilitate root growth. Please put the vase in a cool and ventilated place. 3. When the flower bud grows to 5-8cm high (about 8-12 weeks), the vase can be placed in a warm environment, and the optimum temperature is 15 ℃-21 ℃. Change the water once in about 4.7 days. When changing the water, pull the hyacinth bulb out of the hydroponic bottle to avoid breaking the root system. Potted planting of hyacinth 1. When will you plant it? From October to December, the temperature was below 10 ℃ and began to sow. two。 Where do you plant it? Good drainage, loose soil, pH 6-7. Choose the basin with holes at the bottom. Generally, 3 balls can be planted in 16 pots. Or plant it directly in a sunny or semi-shaded place in the courtyard. 3. How do you plant it? The buds are planted head up, and the bulbs are covered with soil 2-5cm. After planting, they are placed in a cool place, which is conducive to the growth of roots. After the leaves unfold, move to a sunny or semi-shaded place for normal management. The distance between planting balls in the courtyard was 10cm, and the soil was covered with 5-10cm. 4. How to take care of it? After the seed is watered thoroughly, it will be dry watered later. After the leaves grow out of the soil, the special fertilizer for bulbs can be used appropriately. 5. What are we going to do after the flower? After the flowers withered, cut off the flower stems, apply special fertilizer, and manage as usual. After the leaves withered, the balls were raised, cleaned and large bulbs were selected, stored in a dry, cool and ventilated place, and replanted in September-December. In this way, you can enjoy the hyacinth beautifully.
