● water lily planting methods and steps

Lotus cultivation generally adopts the way of covering pots, that is, large pots and small pots. The advantage of this is that it is easy to take care of, whether it is fertilizing or changing water. Let's briefly show you the next steps.

1) can not find pond mud, used the general garden soil + nutrient soil, in view of the lotus root planted last year, the soil is full of worms, and finally ate the lotus root. So stir-fry the soil this time (the aim is to sterilize and disinfect and kill insects at the same time. Flower friends without conditions can also use microwave ovens, of course, they can skip this step, but take a little risk appropriately)

2) put horn fertilizer and bone powder into the pelvic floor, and if not, you can use the slow-release long-acting organic fertilizer bought in the flower market to replace it. When the situation of the water lily is stable, you can also top up the fertilizer, and the method of topdressing the water lily is also very simple. Make a few holes around the small basin, put the fertilizer in, and then cover it with soil.

3) for cold-tolerant varieties of water lilies, they can be put flat into the soil or tilted into the soil at a 15-degree angle, so that the bud end is in the center of the basin, and the base is close to the edge of the basin, so that there is room for the top to grow forward and take root.

4) put a layer of coarse sand and stone on it, so as to prevent the soil from floating up. At the same time, wet the soil before launching, and don't sink the basin to the bottom at once, otherwise it is easy to make the water in the big basin muddy. In this way, the whole root planting diagram of water lilies is completed.

Key points of planting management of ● water lilies

1. Water management: water lilies prefer to grow in places where the water level is more uniform, but the petiole needs to extend with the deepening of the water level. of course, when the water level falls, it cannot shrink back, which will cause many leaves to run aground and die. Therefore, we had better raise it in the water where the water level is relatively stable, whether it is potted plants or ponds, we need to add water frequently. In one case, there is no need to change water, but if the water body is polluted and smelly, it has affected the normal growth of water lilies. Then the water needs to be changed.

2. Clean water: when families grow aquatic plants, many filamentous algae often grow in the tank, which not only seriously affect the foliage and flowering of plants, but also affect the landscape and need to be removed, as is the case with water lilies. If you encounter such a situation, then you can use copper sulfate powder to kill, which can only be maintained for a short time, too much will cause soil and water pollution, affecting the growth of water lilies, the best way is to salvage the human body and change water.

3. Remove withered leaves and rotten flowers: after many varieties of water lilies bloom, they will not bear fruit, and then the flowers will rot. If you encounter flower decay, you need to know in time that the old withered leaves will not only affect their appearance, but also spread diseases. So it is necessary to remove them in time to keep the leaves fresh.

Matters needing attention in planting ● water lilies

1. Soil selection: clayey soil rich in humus is especially suitable for the growth of water lilies. Therefore, silt from river ponds can be used when selecting soil.

2. Seed selection: water lilies are often cultivated by the split method; the quality of the seed stem is the key link of the final cultivation success or failure, and it is best to select a section of underground rhizome with good growth condition and cut it into stem blocks around 6~250px.

3. Proper shallow planting: the stem is too deep in the mud, which is not conducive to the growth of water lilies. The depth of cultivation is based on the fact that the new buds on the stem are flat with the soil.

4. Lighting: the environment where water lilies are planted must be sunny, warm, humid and well ventilated. Especially for water lilies cultivated in pots, the light must be sufficient.
