Watering methods and matters needing attention of Anthurium andraeanum

Anthurium is also known as flower candle, has a very high ornamental value, in all parts of our country have breeding. As a kind of potted plant, when we maintain it, we mainly use watering. Watering Anthurium is the key to ensuring its robust growth, but there are still many precautions for watering Anthurium. So Xiaobian brought you the watering methods and precautions of Anthurium today. Let's take a look at it together.

1. Watering method

When watering anthurium, its watering time is very important, watering should be carried out in warm weather as far as possible. Do not water in rainy days and low temperatures. However, it should be noted that if it is summer watering, then it must not be carried out at noon to avoid excessive evaporation, resulting in red anthurium being burned out. Then when watering, because the growth period of red anthurium is different, the requirements for water are also different. For example, in the seedling stage, the root system of the plant is weak, the distribution in the soil is not deep, and the drought tolerance is poor, so it is necessary to spray water twice a day after planting.

To keep the soil moist, promote the development of new roots, but also pay attention to maintain a good pot surface substrate humidity. In the middle and early stages, the growth rate of Anthurium is relatively fast, so it is necessary to maintain sufficient water supply at this time. Then, when Anthurium enters the flowering period, it is necessary to appropriately reduce the amount of watering and increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote Anthurium to bloom more. Anthurium likes to grow in a humid environment, so it is necessary to maintain an environment with high humidity and high soil moisture content. Usually, the growth environment of Anthurium should be guaranteed at about 75%. If the leaves of Anthurium are dry and pointed, spray water in time.

II. Precautions

1. Pay attention to water quality

When we water anthurium, the first thing to pay attention to is the water quality. Anthurium growth is very sensitive to changes in salt, we must pay attention to the choice of acidic water when watering. However, it should not be too acidic. If it is too acidic, it is also very unfavorable for the growth of Anthurium. It is best to be able to use natural rainwater as the main source and store it when it rains. If it is a family potted culture, then we can fill the waste gas bottle with water, and then place it for about three days before spraying the anthurium leaves, because after the tap water is placed for a period of time, the chlorine will volatilize, so that it will not affect the growth of anthurium.

2. Pay attention to the water temperature

Then we need to pay more attention to the water temperature. Water temperature is also very important for the growth of Anthurium. When watering, the water temperature should not be too low, and the minimum should be kept at about 15 degrees. At the same time, pay attention to the temperature when pouring nutrient solution. Especially in summer and winter, such as hot and cold seasons to pay more attention. For the medium, can not be too wet, because the root of anthurium is fleshy, its water storage capacity is strong, if the medium moisture is too much, then easy to appear hypoxia phenomenon. It affects the respiration of its roots and eventually causes the root system to rot.

The above is a brief introduction to the watering methods and precautions of Anthurium. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, I hope to help everyone oh!
