Next, let's learn the techniques of potted carnation culture:

1. To prevent carnation leaves from withering, it is necessary to control the light and temperature: some flower friends react to the phenomenon of leaf withering in the process of planting. This problem is mainly caused by uncontrolled temperature and light conditions. It is easy to cause wilt symptoms when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees. The most suitable environmental temperature for the growth of carnations is 13-25 degrees, and the light conditions are controlled at 6-8 hours a day. It can ensure the normal growth of potted Kangnai. A preference for bright lights is an important feature of carnations. Whether indoor, potted over summer or greenhouse to promote cultivation, all need sufficient light, should be placed in the sunny position of direct light.

2. Avoid rotten roots of carnations and master the principle of watering: why do some potted carnations have rotten roots? Potted plants have something in common: they like an environment with good ventilation and drainage. Excessive watering can easily lead to root rot, so it is necessary to grasp the number of watering times. Avoid stagnant water. Pay attention to loosening the soil and drainage in the rainy season. Except for timely watering during the growing and blooming season. Usually can be less watering, in order to keep the soil moist. If there are conditions, it is appropriate to keep the air wettability at about 75%. Once again remind the principle of watering carnations: the basin table is not dry, water is thoroughly watered, avoid waterlogging.

3. If you want carnations to grow healthily, pay attention to fertilization: if you choose children's shoes planted with carnations. Attention should be paid to the selection of clayey soil with good drainage, rich humus, good fertilizer retention and slightly alkaline. Before planting, the basin floor should be fully fertilized with basic fertilizer containing potassium, calcium, nitrogen and phosphorus (or with sufficient baking fertilizer and bone meal). Liquid fertilizer should also be applied continuously during the growing period, generally applying mature thin fertilizer and water every 10 days or so, and applying topdressing after flower picking. Fertilization is prohibited during the high temperature period in summer, otherwise it is easy to wither and die.

4. The method of promoting multi-branch and multi-flowering of carnation: in order to promote its branching, remove the top when the plant height is 15-20 cm. Generally retain 6-7 lateral buds in the lower part, then pick the heart again later, and finally make the plant have 12-14 lateral branches. When pregnant buds, only one bud is left at the top of each branch, and all the lower axillary lateral buds and lateral buds should be removed. The second picking must be carried out before the middle of August. Cut off the pedicel in time after the first flowering, leaving only two buds at the base of each branch. After picking the heart again and again, it can make the plant shape beautiful and the flowers colorful.
