Culture methods and matters needing attention of hyacinth

Hyacinth is a perennial herbaceous bulbous plant, originally produced in Europe and other regions, and later introduced into China as a kind of ornamental plant is very popular. The flower fragrance of hyacinth has the effect of anti-fatigue and awakening, and in addition to ornamental, hyacinth is also one of the main extraction plants of aromatic oil. So how to raise hyacinth? What are the points for attention? The following editor brings you the breeding methods and matters needing attention of hyacinth, let's have a look!

1. Select the seed ball

The flowering and growth of hyacinth need more nutrients, and the growth nutrients of hyacinth are mainly stored in the bulb. Therefore, in order to improve the ornamental value and growth rate of hyacinth, we should choose seed ball culture with smooth surface, smooth scales and rich nutrition. The choice of planting ball is very important, a good seed ball determines the growth of hyacinth in the later stage, which is convenient for later management and reduces the cost of breeding.

2. Soil selection and cultivation

It has just been said that hyacinth culture has a relatively large demand for nutrition, so when breeding, try to choose sandy soil with sufficient fertility, rich humus and good drainage and irrigation. And in the later maintenance of hyacinth, the demand for soil is also relatively large. After selecting the soil, pour enough water to keep the soil moist for a day or so before cultivation. After cultivation, the hyacinth should be watered in time according to the growth of hyacinth, and the management should be done well.

3. Control lighting

Sufficient light is needed in the growth process of hyacinth. If sufficient light is not guaranteed, it will lead to a series of problems, such as poor growth of hyacinth, thin plants, hindered expansion of flower bracts, chlorosis of leaves and so on. But the light should not be too strong, because too strong may burn hyacinth leaves and shorten the flowering period of hyacinth. Therefore, we must reasonably control the light to prevent hyacinth from direct sunlight, but also to ensure that there is enough sunlight.

4. Temperature and humidity

Hyacinth is a kind of temperature-loving plant, the growth temperature should not be too high or too low, too high will affect the growth of hyacinth, make hyacinth appear abnormal growth and increase the rate of blind flowers. However, too low can easily lead to frost damage of hyacinth, so it is most appropriate to control the temperature at about 25 degrees. And the soil should be kept at about 65% humidity, too high to inhibit hyacinth respiration, easy to produce retting root rot phenomenon, if too low moisture is too little, on the ground there is a lack of water wilting phenomenon, serious death.

5. Points for attention

After successful cultivation, we must do a good job in water and fertilizer management to prevent hyacinth bulbs from cracking and rotting. And to control the harvest time, if harvested too early, the bulb is not mature enough. If it is not harvested in time, it will encounter rainy weather and the soil is too moist, which will hinder the dryness of the bulb and rot easily during storage. Therefore, during storage, it is necessary to ensure that the storeroom is dry and share it on the ground to improve ventilation and prevent decay.

Hyacinth needs to be fertilized at the right time in breeding, and a small amount should be applied in topdressing. It is the peak growth period of hyacinth in spring and autumn, so it needs to be fertilized at least twice a month. But topdressing also depends on the temperature. If it exceeds the range of 10-30 degrees, it is necessary to stop fertilizing and control the temperature.
