The carnation is not only full of fragrance, but also has a long flowering period. no matter it is outstanding or made into a bouquet in the flower market, it often attracts people's attention deeply. And carnations have a unique and beautiful meaning, and often become one of the best-selling flowers and plants around Mother's Day.

The flowers of carnations are large and beautiful, whether as cut flowers or as potted plants, they all have high ornamental value. However, as a potted plant, post-anthesis maintenance and management is very important, because it not only affects whether the plant can recover quickly after anthesis, but also affects the effect of the next round of flowering. So, how to raise carnations after blooming?

After the carnation blossoms fade, the first thing we need to do is to remove the residual flowers in time, cut off the pedicels and avoid futile consumption of nutrients. The correct pruning method for carnation plants can stimulate or force the plants to blossom quickly. If the carnation blossoms for the first time, it is necessary to keep 2 buds for each flower branch when pruning the flower branches after flowering, which is very important for the later germination and growth and smooth re-flowering.

For the maintenance and management of carnations after flowering, in addition to pruning, the original needs to strengthen the management of water and fertilizer. After all, carnations consume a lot of nutrients in order to bloom at flowering stage, and there is an urgent need to replenish nutrients to restore growth. At the same time, it is also necessary to increase light, strengthen photosynthesis and accelerate the rapid recovery function of plants. And the next topdressing is also very important.

After the flower fade, carnations can apply some balanced compound fertilizer, throw 5-6 particles in the water at a time, dissolve them completely, shake well and pour them into the basin soil. Then pour water again to allow the residual fertilizer to be fully dissolved and absorbed. If there is a tray at the bottom of the flowerpot, you can apply fertilizer and water once a week according to this method, and keep watering at ordinary times.
