How to raise melon leaf chrysanthemum and the culture method of melon leaf chrysanthemum

Melon leaf chrysanthemum likes the warm and humid environment. Because of its long flowering period and rich colors, it has become the main flower for New Year's Day and Spring Festival. The breeding method of melon and leaf chrysanthemum is not applicable to all flower friends, and the breeding of melon and leaf chrysanthemum should be raised according to the actual breeding situation.

Culture methods of Chrysanthemum morifolium:

2. Watering: the leaves of Chrysanthemum morifolium are large and thin, which need to maintain sufficient water, but can not make the basin soil too wet, so it is appropriate to keep the leaves from withering. Usually watering should be determined according to the dry and wet condition of the basin soil, and then irrigate once every 2-3 days. Clear water can be sprayed to the leaf surface once a day, and hot weather can be sprayed twice to reduce the temperature and increase the air humidity. After the emergence of buds, watering should be controlled as much as possible, and the flowering period should be placed in a cool environment of 8-12 ℃, which can prolong the flowering period to 30-40 days.

3. Sunshine: melon-leaf chrysanthemum likes sunshine during the growing period and should not be shaded. Turn the flowerpot regularly so that the branches and leaves receive light evenly and the plant shape is straight and unskewed. After flower wilting, the plant still needs moderate light to adapt to seed development.

4. Temperature: melon leaf chrysanthemum likes warmth but can not bear high temperature, and grows best under the condition of 15-20 ℃. When the temperature is higher than 21 ℃, the overgrowth phenomenon can occur, which is not conducive to the formation of flower buds. When the temperature is below 5 ℃, the growth and development of the plant stops, and the freezing injury occurs when the temperature is below 0 ℃. The suitable temperature for flowering is 10: 15 ℃, which can not open in bud when the temperature is below 6 ℃, and when the temperature is higher than 18 ℃, the flower stem will grow slender and affect the ornamental value.

5. Fertilization: in addition to applying base fertilizer during planting, thin cake fertilizer should be applied every 7-10 days in the growth process, or diluted chemical fertilizer can be used. After the appearance of flower buds, 1-2 times of potassium dihydrogen phosphate could be applied, and fertilization lasted until flowering (stopped in rainy season). If the leaves are contaminated during fertilization, they should be washed in time.

6. Insect pests: the common insect diseases of melon and leaf chrysanthemum are aphids and red spiders. If the damage to aphids and red spiders is more serious, they can be sprayed with 2000 times dimethoate diluent. Because red spiders generally occur on the back of the leaves, and aphids generally occur on the tender top of the chrysanthemum, spraying should focus on the back of the leaves and the top of the plant, and the front of the leaves should also be sprayed properly.

Note: melon leaf chrysanthemum requires loose, fertile, well-drained soil. Like a sunny and well-ventilated environment, but avoid direct sunlight. I like a cool and humid climate. Cool temperature and plenty of sunshine are the main conditions for its good growth. Like sandy loam rich in humus and well drained, avoid drought, afraid of stagnant water, suitable for neutral and slightly acidic soil. The flowering period is from December to April of the following year, and the flowering period is from 3mi to April.

Culture method of Chrysanthemum morifolium how to raise Chrysanthemum

There are many varieties of melon leaf chrysanthemum in horticulture. It can be roughly divided into four types: large flower type, star type, intermediate type and multi-flower type, and there are different double petals and different height varieties in different types. Today, let's learn the culture method of melon and leaf chrysanthemum.

Culture methods of Chrysanthemum morifolium

I. Culture methods of Chrysanthemum morifolium

Melon leaf chrysanthemum is a plant of the family Compositae, which was first produced in the Canary Islands, but now it has spread all over the world. It is rich in varieties, including large flower type, small flower type, double flower type and multi-flower type. The colors are red, snow cyan, white, purple, pink, blue and a variety of mixed colors.

In April, when the light is strong, some shading measures need to be taken to help bear fruit. It usually ripens in a month and can be picked at the beginning of the white crown at the top of the fruit to prevent the seeds from falling. The collected seeds are sun-dried and packed in paper bags and stored in a well-ventilated and dry place.

It should be more than 5 ℃ at night, less than 20 ℃ in daytime, and the best temperature range is between 10 and 15 ℃.

The light should be suitable, avoid being too dry and direct light, and have a smooth ventilation environment to keep cool and moist. When in the bud period, to give the plant more than 3 hours of light, so as not to affect flowering, it is best to turn over in the middle period, so as to avoid the phenomenon of partial crown.

The best soil quality is loose, easy to drain, nutrient-rich sandy soil, preferably slightly acidic soil or neutral soil, adding appropriate amount of humus to avoid excessive dryness and waterlogging.

Temperature: to prevent the temperature from getting too high in the hot period, try to control the temperature at 10-20 ℃, the seedlings can survive at 1 ℃ room temperature, and take appropriate cooling measures when flowering to prolong the flowering time.

Lighting: during the peak growth period, you should receive sufficient sunlight, moisturize and keep warm, and you can put it indoors when you see the flowers. do not guarantee that the other three directions outside the north window will be exposed to sunlight for 4 hours, constantly change the direction of the plant and let it grow evenly.

Moisture: let the soil have a slight sense of wetting, should be irrigated completely at one time, pay attention to the usual drainage, high temperature weather pay attention to the supply of water.

Fertilization: during the growing period, you can apply diluted fertilizer, this process should prevent the fertilizer from touching the leaves, and then spray the new high-fat film through the washing step. Plants in the bud stage can apply Zhuangtiling flowers to make the buds healthy and the flowers more beautiful. Please do not apply fertilizer during the flowering period.

Disease: the plant is vulnerable to red spiders and aphids, so it is necessary to control the environmental conditions, find and dispose of the diseased branches as soon as possible, or spray a little pesticide. If the disease is serious, you can focus on spraying 2000 times dimethoate to the back of the leaves and the top of the chrysanthemum. In addition, other parts are also sprayed.

② light problem, if the sun is too little, the plant immunity is poor, not strong enough, but too strong, it is easy to produce wilting yellow condition.

③ temperature problem, high will accelerate the growth of branches and leaves, is not conducive to flowering, low will slow down the growth, affecting the appearance of leaves.

④ fertilizer problems, improper control of fertilizer application, paint is in the case of poor ventilation, will also cause wilting leaves, or even die.

2. What to do if the leaves of melon and leaf chrysanthemum wilt:

When ① is dry, you can spray water on the surface first, and then pour it through at one time to avoid stagnant water.

② controls the light, puts it in the place of scattered light or takes shade measures, and manually makes up for the deficiency. Adjust the gap between the branches, leaves and plants in the basin in the process of culture, so that each part receives sunlight evenly.

③ adjusts the temperature, generally under the condition of 15-20 ℃.

④ regulates water distribution, usually applying thin fertilizer for two weeks, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, plus a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer.
