Amberlite flowers are huge, colorful, and its roots are very familiar with garlic, so it is also a perennial root flower of Amaryllidaceae. Because his flowers are big and colorful, everyone likes to beautify their homes by putting amaryllis in their living rooms, study rooms, etc. So today, Huahua will introduce you to the cultivation method of amaryllis!

Step 1

Clean the seed balls. Cut off the decayed and dried roots of the bulbs, and keep the remaining healthy roots. If there are many layers of brown and dry skin on the outside of the seed ball, you can peel off part of it to eliminate the hidden danger of causing festering to the greatest extent.

Step 2

Seed balls replenish water. If the seed ball due to longer storage period more water loss, it is best to seed ball hydration, that is, slightly higher than the ambient temperature of water soaked in the lower part of the seed ball for 1, 2 hours, experienced can add some gibberellin and other plant hormones in the water, but also beneficial to root and late seed ball expansion, but should pay attention to the concentration and soaking time, otherwise it will be self-defeating.

Step 3

Disinfection. It is the key link of planting. Generally, common disinfectants such as carbendazim, chlorothalonil and methyl thiophane can be used according to the instructions. After planting, the disinfectant water is used for irrigation to disinfect the soil.

Step 4

The recommended medium is peat: vermiculite: pearlite =2:1:1 or peat: pearlite =1:1. Humus soil can replace peat and river sand can replace pearlite when it is inconvenient. The medium is best mixed with 10% bone meal, calcium superphosphate and other base fertilizers.

Step 5

Planting depth. When the bulbs are first planted, at least half of the spheres are exposed, and the state of the bulbs is often checked, because the bulbs are very prone to decay during this period. After this period, the root leaves of the bulbs grow out, and then the soil is covered to 1/2 or 2/3 of the bulbs.

Step 6

Watering. After planting, irrigate thoroughly once, wait for the pot soil to be basically dry before watering, and do not apply fertilizer before the bulb leaves except for the base fertilizer.

Step 7

Place environment. After planting, it is placed in a cool place at 10-15℃ to facilitate rooting, and then moved to a higher temperature of 20-25℃ after two weeks to facilitate flower extraction.
