How to plant the full sky star? Here's a way.

Mantianxing, a perennial perennial herbaceous flower of Caryophyllaceae, formerly known as double-petal carnation, alias broken copper coin, slender stems and branches, luxuriant branches, rich three-dimensional sense, growing numerous small flowers, often used in bouquets, baskets, flower arrangements, is one of the household decoration plants that people like to use, so we should pay attention to the following points in Mantianxing culture:

The loose soil is the best: the requirement of the cultivation of Mantianxing on the soil is not high, generally with the slightly alkaline calcareous soil or gravelly loam with good drainage.

Water should be controlled: there is more demand for water in the seedling stage, and sufficient water and fertilizer are still needed after coring, so that the plant can gradually change from the vegetative growth period to the reproductive growth period, that is to say, enter the protruding stage (flowering stage). Until the spikelet is drawn out, the moisture content of the petals should be slightly reduced when the petals grow out, so as to prevent the quality and pumping capacity of the cut flowers from decreasing, and to promote the flowers to bloom neatly. Especially in the hot and humid season in summer, whether the water control is appropriate or not is often the main factor that determines the success of the cultivation.

The temperature should not be too high: the daily temperature of 25 ℃ is the best. If it is more than 30 ℃, the time or days are too long, it is easy to increase the probability of deformed flowers. The best night temperature is 10-15 ℃, if the temperature is less than 10 ℃, and then less than 10 ℃, and the short days in autumn and winter are easy to cause dormancy or clustering.

Light should be adequate: light has a far-reaching effect on whether the stars bloom or not, especially in winter. If the whole sky star in summer is irradiated at 80-24Klux, all the plants can blossom. The difference is that the less the illuminance received by the plants, the less the number of flowers. All the plants could blossom when irradiated with 58Klux in winter, while those with 24Klux could not blossom even if they were given full light period for 24 hours continuously.

It is necessary to apply fertilizer regularly: full sky stars like fertilizer, but water is taboo. Topdressing should be done by stages after planting, mainly nitrogen fertilizer in the early stage and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in the later stage. Water management should be strictly controlled, excessive wet growth becomes weak, stagnant water will cause root rot death. Watering should be controlled when the plant grows to 30 cm, especially at the budding stage and drier at the flowering stage. Shelter should be built for cultivation in rainy areas.

Pest treatment: the phenomenon of diseases and insect pests in the sky is rare, generally occasional aphids or snails. At this point, you can use wind oil essence dilution or neutral washing powder to spray, this method can kill aphids. For snails, it can be sprayed in the basin soil with Miaoling granules. Pay attention to the root rot disease to prevent the phenomenon of stagnant water in the basin soil, and with green cream copper EC or root rot Ling 800 times liquid can be irrigated.

All over the sky is a very common herbal flower, lush flowers feel very fresh, romantic, often potted to decorate the home, see here, I believe we already know how to raise it!
