Management methods of Carnation in Changxia

1. Less management or no management is the best management method

The drought and barren tolerance of carnation in Changxia is so strong that it can not be managed by conventional management. As long as the planting survives, there is no need to water and fertilize. If you water and fertilize too much, the branches and leaves will grow too vigorously and the roots will rot easily. Many construction units and management units think that the more exuberant the branches and leaves of carnation in summer, the better, often watering and fertilizing, resulting in the death of planting in spring and summer. On the contrary, some unmanaged carnation are green all the year round, with low branches and leaves, and bloom in early summer.

Second, raise seedlings with little or no plastic greenhouse or plastic film

The disadvantages of raising seedlings with greenhouse or plastic film are: the greenhouse is warm and humid, and it is easy to breed all kinds of germs. After the seedlings are transplanted to the field, the germs propagate rapidly in the rainy season, which can easily cause illness and death in a large area of carnation in summer. The better way is to raise seedlings in the open land in autumn. after the seedlings have withstood the severe cold in winter, they will be transplanted to the field in spring next year. Such seedlings basically do not have any bacteria and are congenitally well developed. Practice has proved that after many construction units have used seedlings that have been tested in severe winter, the survival rate of carnation is more than 90%.

3. Planting in early spring or late autumn has the best effect.

Carnation sprouted earlier in summer and began to sprout flower buds when the permafrost was civilized in the north. At this time, transplanting will not do much harm to the plant, the survival rate is very high, and does not affect the full flowering period in June. Transplanting from September to early November is also the best time, and after the severe winter, a large number of germs are frozen to death, and the vitality is stronger in the coming year. In short, for the management of carnation in Changxia, as long as we highlight the word "lazy", remember the word "cut" (cut the residual flowers once after the full bloom), and do not forget the two words "no" (no watering, no fertilization).
