What about lavender lodging?

Lavender is a very common plant in China, which has high ornamental value and is loved by many people. Lavender planting area is now relatively large, but when planting lavender, there are often many problems affecting the growth of lavender. Lavender lodging is one of them. Lavender lodging not only affects the yield, but also reduces its ornamental value. So what about lavender lodging? Let's take a look at it together with Xiaobian below!

1. Supplement potassium fertilizer

The root cause of lavender lodging is that the stems of lavender plants are too thin and weak. Because lavender is too thin, then it is unable to bear the weight of the plant. So if you want to improve this situation, then first make sure that the lavender plant stems are strong enough. Potassium fertilizer can play a role, so if we find that the plant stem is not strong enough when planting, then we should apply some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in time, so as to enhance the lodging resistance of lavender. At the same time, attention should be paid to controlling the amount of nitrogen fertilizer. Too much nitrogen fertilizer can easily lead to excessive growth of lavender, resulting in lodging phenomenon.

2. Reasonable watering

Lavender in the growth of water demand is not very large, if too much watering, then it is easy to lead to more water rotten roots, thus affecting the growth of plants. Cause the plant easy to appear lodging phenomenon, and watering too much, then it is also easy to grow too much, the development of the stem is also very unfavorable. Therefore, we should pay attention to watering at ordinary times, watering should not be too much, usually watering when the soil is too dry. Reasonable watering can ensure uniform growth of plants and reduce lodging phenomenon.

3. Light control

Lavender in the growth of light demand is still relatively large, so when we plant lavender, we should pay attention to meet the light needs of lavender. If lavender grows in a dark and weak light environment for a long time, lavender plants are prone to lack of photosynthetic substances due to insufficient light. In this case, lavender plants are also prone to lodging. Therefore, we should pay attention to planting lavender in a place with sufficient light. If there is excessive growth, then we should also do a good job of pruning, cutting off the too long part and avoiding excessive nutrient consumption.

4. Shade at seedling stage

Lavender seedling management is very important, in lavender seedling, its ability to withstand sunlight is very poor. If exposed to direct sunlight, it is easy to cause sunburn of seedlings. And water evaporation is also relatively fast, easy to lack water, resulting in lodging phenomenon. Therefore, when we plant it, we must first put it in a semi-shady place at the seedling stage and provide it with an appropriate amount of scattered light. Then wait until lavender through the seedling stage, and let it receive sunlight normally.

The above is a simple introduction to how to do lavender lodging. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, I hope to help everyone oh!
