Daily maintenance methods of cyclamen flowers planting and cultivation methods of cyclamen flowers

Cyclamen, also known as radish begonia and rabbit ear flower, is a perennial herb of Primulaceae. Cyclamen is a widely grown plant, so let's take a look at cyclamen's daily maintenance methods.

The culture method of cyclamen

1. Seed selection: select seeds, select full, glossy brown seeds without diseases and insect pests, soak the seeds collected that year in the mixture of 50ppm's GA3 (gibberellin) and 500ppm's methyl thiophanate or chlorothalonil for one day and night, then control clean water, rinse clean in clean water, and control water to dry off the surface. Then sow the seeds and blossom about 10 days earlier than the unsoaked seeds.

two。 Potted soil: cyclamen requires fertile, well-drained slightly acidic soil. If the soil is not managed or managed scientifically for a long time, cyclamen will grow poorly, blossom less, lose its color, and reduce or lose its ornamental value. It is better to plant with loose and fertile nutritious soil. Organic fertilizers such as rotting heat and thin human and animal feces and urine are applied every 10 days or so; after budding, 0.1% potassium dihydrogen sulfate is applied twice.

3. Temperature: the most suitable temperature for growth is about 15 ℃. The optimum temperature for growth and flower bud differentiation is 15-20 ℃, and the humidity is 70-75%; the temperature during flowering in winter should not be lower than 10 ℃; if the temperature is too low, the flower color will be dim and easy to wither; if the summer temperature reaches 28-30 ℃, the plant will dormancy; when the temperature is above 30 ℃, cyclamen leaves will yellowing and shedding, flowers will fade and have no ornamental value, and if it reaches more than 35 ℃, the tuber is easy to rot. At this time, put the plant on the well-ventilated north balcony or under the eaves or under the porch or under the rain shelter, stop fertilization, control watering, and keep the basin soil moist. If it is dry for a long time, it will make the root system dry and necrotic, and the corm will shrink and lose water and die.

4. Watering: when cyclamen enters dormancy in summer, it is necessary to reduce the watering of dormant bulbs, pour enough water after pots and discs in autumn, and gradually increase fertilizer and water, keep the soil moist, and reduce water in winter. Do not make water on flower buds and tender leaves when watering, so as not to rot and affect flowering. The watering time should be from 10:00 to 12:00, and the water temperature and substrate temperature should be as close as possible.

Flowering maintenance of cyclamen

Cyclamen is generally released from dormancy from the end of August to the beginning of September, when it should be maintained in a cool and ventilated place, and gradually increase the light, watering times and water quantity with the growth of leaves. From the early budding stage of cyclamen to the pedicel elongation of 1 cm, the gibberellin solution of 1ppm-5ppm was sprayed at the young buds to promote early flowering, and the gibberellin concentration should not be too high, otherwise the pedicel would grow and droop and the number of abnormal flowers would increase.

Cyclamen florescence is generally from October to May of the following year, during flowering, maintain room temperature 12 degrees Celsius-15 degrees Celsius, relative humidity 60% Mo 75%, can prolong the flowering period, a flower can bloom for more than 20 days, a pot of flowers can bloom for 4-6 months. If the room temperature is higher than 18 degrees Celsius, the high stem will grow, the flowers will droop and the florescence will be shortened; if the room temperature is lower than 10 degrees Celsius, the growth will slow down and the flowers will be smaller.

Watering should be properly controlled during flowering to keep the basin soil moist. If you water too much, the flowers will fade early. Do not sprinkle water on flower buds and tender leaves when watering, so as not to cause rot. Fertilization should be stopped during flowering, otherwise it will lead to early withering of flowers, and attention should be paid to turning the pot position frequently to make leaves and flowers receive light evenly and ensure that the plant shape is correct and beautiful.

The quality of cyclamen varieties directly affects its ornamental value and the degree of difficulty of maintenance, so imported F1 cyclamen with concentrated bouquets, thick petals, good texture, compact leaves and glossy leaves should be selected. Cyclamen on the market has two major strains of Japan and Europe and the United States. The flowers and colors of the Japanese strain are particularly bright, while the plant type of the European and American strain is large and the leaves are compact.

How to make cyclamen bloom more often

1. Select the seeds and carry on the seed treatment. Choose full and glossy brown seeds, soak the seeds in water of about 30 degrees for 3-4 hours and then sow them, and blossom about 10 days earlier than the last seeds.

2. Reasonable watering. Cyclamen is a plant that likes dampness and is afraid of waterlogging. Too much water is not conducive to its growth and development, and even cause rotten roots and death. Therefore, keep the soil moist every day, and the amount of water should not be too large.

3. increase the application of fertilizer. Cyclamen is also a fertilizer-loving plant, fertilization should first start from the soil. Potted plants generally use fertile sandy loam with more humus, change the basin soil once a year, and fertilize 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate once each in spring and autumn, which can blossom 15-20 days ahead of schedule. Never use high nitrogen fertilizer.

4. Create suitable temperature conditions. Cyclamen is not resistant to high temperature, too high temperature will make it into a dormant state. Therefore, the temperature has a great influence on cyclamen. In general, cyclamen suitable growth temperature is about 20 degrees in the day, 10 degrees in the evening, and the temperature in the seedling stage can be slightly lower. In addition, the temperature during flower bud differentiation and pedicel elongation should be slightly lower, which is beneficial to flowering. Cyclamen enters dormancy because of high temperature in summer. If low temperature conditions are created, cyclamen can not be dormant, which is conducive to flowering.

5. Prolong the light condition. Cyclamen likes the sun, prolonging the sunshine time can promote its early flowering, therefore, cyclamen should be placed in a sunny place for maintenance.

6. Hormone treatment. When the young buds of cyclamen appear, gently spray 1 mg / 1 kg gibberellin on the buds, spray 1-3 times a day, and blossom more than 15 days earlier.

These are the daily maintenance methods and cultivation methods of cyclamen that I have summarized for you. I hope this article can help you. Please continue to follow us.
