Germinate at 15 ℃ for 7-10 days, and fertilize the seedlings after emergence. 2. 3 true leaves can be transplanted. It is sown in the greenhouse in autumn and blossoms in spring. The growth of seedlings is slow, fertilizer and water management should be strengthened during the growing period, fertilization should be applied once a month, and nitrogen fertilizer should be controlled. 0.4% solution can be applied for a long time to control the growth height, which is beneficial to plant shape and flowering.

Drunken butterfly flowers are commonly used for sowing and propagation, which can be sowed in the open field seedbed in March and April in spring, or in the greenhouse in February. After sowing and sprouting in the open field, the seedlings should be carried out in time. When the seedlings grow 2 true leaves, they should be planted separately according to the plant distance of about 10 cm. When the seedlings grow to about 5 cm, they are planted in the garden with a row spacing of 30 cm ~ 40 cm.

Because the drunken butterfly flower is a taproot plant, the whisker root is less, and it is not resistant to transplantation, so it must be transplanted during the seedling period to improve the survival rate. After planting or planting, it should be managed carefully, watered in time, and covered with Reed curtains and other sunscreen and wind protection. In addition, when applied in the garden, in order to reduce the labor intensity, the seeds can also be directly seeded in the garden where they need to be planted. In general, spring sowers bloom in summer and autumn, while autumn sowers watch flowers indoors in winter and spring.

It has relatively low requirements for soil and is most suitable for growing in loose, fertile and well-drained sandy loam. The suitable temperature for its growth is 15 ℃ ~ 25 ℃. Water at least once a day in summer. In case of high temperature, watering should avoid direct sunlight at noon. As the flowering period of drunken butterfly is longer, dilute liquid fertilizer should be applied every half a month to promote its good growth. When planting and watching in the flower bed, the residual flowers should be removed in time so that they do not bear seeds in order to prolong the flowering period. The capsule of drunken butterfly flower will split by itself when it is ripe, and it is easy to scatter seeds, so the seeds should be collected when the capsule changes from green to yellow.

Main points of cultivation:

Sowing: about 600-900 seeds per gram, generally choose 128 or 288 holes to sow, sowing medium generally choose imported seedling peat soil, after sowing need to cover a thin layer of vermiculite, PH 5.5-5.8, gemstone series do not need special treatment before sowing to promote his germination and growth.

Transplant on the pot: reach 3-4 true leaves, you can go on the pot.

Temperature: 22-27 ℃ during the day and 16-18 ℃ at night. The combination of high temperature and low light will cause overgrowth, but will stop growing at low temperature.

Fertilizer: it is a fertilizer-loving plant, continuously applying 20-10-20 N, P and K balanced fertilizer of about 1000 times, and watering it with clean water every 3 times.
