What is the culture method of camellia? what are the matters needing attention?

Camellia is one of the flowers that many people like to grow, one is its beauty and rich color, the other is that it is a good species, generally people raise it as a potted plant, here the editor mainly wants to talk about the cultivation method of camellia. After all, what is the culture method of camellia? What are the precautions?

The cultivation methods mentioned by the editor here mainly include light, temperature, watering, fertilization and soil. In fact, the introduction of these five aspects is also an explanation of some matters needing attention. Let's take a look at the details.

1. Lighting: Camellia bogey strong light, so we must pay attention to the sun when planting. Sufficient light is required in spring and autumn, but in summer, we must avoid being exposed to direct sunlight. As long as camellias are exposed to strong light for too long, it is easy to die. If conditions permit, it is best to transplant to the sunshade.

2. Temperature: camellias are neither cold-resistant nor heat-resistant, and the most suitable temperature is 18-25 degrees, so the ambient temperature should not be too high or too low, otherwise it will affect its growth, especially in winter, the indoor temperature must be above 3 degrees. If it is lower than 0 degrees, it will cause frostbite.

3. Watering: camellias like a humid environment, so we must pay special attention to not being too dry, not too wet, not too wet when dry, generally more watering in spring, which is conducive to sprouting, watering both morning and evening in summer, and watering the leaves when it is best. Avoid watering plants at high temperatures, autumn and spring, but watering in winter, it is best to water the plants before and after. And don't water it every day, preferably every two or three days.

4. Fertilization: Camellia is more fond of fertilizer, so we should pay special attention to the use of fertilizer in the whole breeding process, such as adding phosphorus and potassium fertilizer on the pot, but there is also a degree of fertilization, which must not be too much. Generally, we should apply fertilizer about 3 times in nearly half a year after flowering. Once in winter is OK, in order to make the flowers more beautiful, it is best to put more phosphate fertilizer in the fertilizer.

5. Soil: soil is the foundation of camellia growth, all nutrients of camellias are obtained from soil, so the demand for soil is quite high. Generally, the soil contains high humus, PH value is between 5 and 6.5, and is slightly acidic. The best soil configuration is as follows: 50% of mountain soil, 40% of sawdust or edible fungus residue, 10% of cake fertilizer or livestock manure and 10% of phosphorus fertilizer.

Because potted flowers are not planted on a large scale, their growth environment is generally not as good as that growing outside, so we must meet the requirements for its growth. Light, temperature, watering, fertilization and soil all need to be controlled artificially, so as to ensure their better growth.
