How to make carnations bloom?

Carnation as a common flower plant, high-quality ornamental value and its own efficacy, coupled with its short plants, convenient indoor potted plants, then how to raise carnations? Here are the shared steps on how to raise carnations.

First, how to raise carnations

1. Soil: Carnation planting requires clayey soil with good drainage, rich humus, good fertilizer retention and slightly alkaline.

2. Watering: carnations have strong growth and strong drought resistance. In rainy and wet areas, the soil is easy to harden and the root system develops abnormally due to poor ventilation, so attention should be paid to loosening the soil and drainage in the rainy season. During the period of vigorous growth, timely watering, more watering, usually watering to keep the soil moist. Water should be sprayed and moistened before blooming.

3. Fertilization: if you choose children's shoes planted with carnation plants. Attention should be paid to the selection of clayey soil with good drainage, rich humus, good fertilizer retention and slightly alkaline. Before planting, the basin floor should be fully fertilized with basic fertilizer containing potassium, calcium, nitrogen and phosphorus (or with sufficient baking fertilizer and bone meal). Liquid fertilizer should also be applied continuously during the growing period, generally applying mature thin fertilizer and water every 10 days or so, and applying topdressing after flower picking. Fertilization is prohibited during the high temperature period in summer, otherwise it is easy to wither and die.

4. heart-picking: the carnation flowers are very beautiful and the most valuable. How to make the carnations blossom? This needs to be carried out from the seedlings, mainly coring, that is, removing the branches, when the seedlings grow 8 to 9 pairs of leaves, carry out the first coring and retain 4 Murray 6 pairs of leaves; when the lateral branches grow more than 4 pairs of leaves, the second coring, each side branch retains 4 pairs of 3 Murray leaves, and finally makes the whole plant have 12 Murray 15 lateral branches as well. There is only one bud at the top of each side branch during bud pregnancy, and the budding buds and lateral branches in the axils below the top should be removed in time. Cut off the pedicel in time after the first flowering, leaving only two buds at the base of each branch. After picking the heart again and again, it can make the plant shape beautiful and the flowers colorful. The important characteristic of carnations is that they love strong light, but it is not the hot sun. Whether indoor potted plants or greenhouse planting, they all need sufficient light. Putting them in a sunny position is of great benefit to the growth of carnations.

5. Control the light and temperature: some flower friends react to the phenomenon of leaf withering in the process of planting. This problem is mainly caused by uncontrolled temperature and light conditions. It is easy to cause wilt symptoms when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees. The most suitable ambient temperature for the growth of carnations is 13 Murray 25 degrees, and the light condition is controlled at 6 Murray for 8 hours per day. It can ensure the normal growth of potted carnations. A preference for bright lights is an important feature of carnations. Whether indoor, potted over summer or greenhouse to promote cultivation, all need sufficient light, should be placed in the sunny position of direct light.

2. matters needing attention in the culture of carnations

1. During the vigorous growth period of spring and autumn, it is appropriate to keep the soil moist to meet the needs of growth and development. When the growth is inhibited during the high temperature period in summer, watering should be controlled to strengthen ventilation in order to keep the basin soil slightly dry.

2. In general, when "Frosts Descent" enters the greenhouse before and after, the temperature control is the most suitable for real 10-Mel-20 ℃. In order to prolong the florescence, the temperature can be increased or lowered appropriately. Efforts should be made to reduce the humidity in the greenhouse in order to reduce the occurrence of diseases.

3. Topdressing should be based on the principle of diligent application of thin fertilizer. Potted plants can be topdressing with thin mature liquid fertilizer every 7 / 10 days.

4. Enter the room in winter and train in places with plenty of sunshine and good ventilation. If the temperature is suitable, the florescence can be extended to March of the following year.

5. In the seedling stage, two times of coring should be carried out to promote branching, so that each plant has about 10 lateral branches. After picking the heart, the plant is graceful and blossoms. With the growth of branches, brackets should also be set up to prevent lodging. During the growth period, the lateral buds and small flower buds produced on each branch should be removed in time, and only one flower bud at the top of each branch should be retained, so that nutrients can be supplied to the top bud.
