Summer is the first time, and many summer plants have attracted attention. Bowl lotus is one of the most common plants with high enthusiasm, so what are the planting methods of bowl lotus? How to carry out daily management?

The planting method of bowl lotus

1. Soil selection

Although the bowl lotus has strong growth ability, planting on the paddy soil rich in organic matter can better improve its growth rate. Do not plant near the pollution source, and if you use yellow mud, you should pay attention to its viscosity, if it is too sticky, it will affect the root growth of lotus. Should not be too loose, otherwise it is easy to break the stem and affect the growth of the root. If potted plants are used, it is best to mix the yellow mud and sandy soil around the cultivated soil, and then control the size of the pot to ensure that it is deep enough for its roots to grow fully.

2. Sowing and raising seedlings

The seeds of bowl lotus are relatively hard, so we should do a good job of breaking the seeds and wear out the concave spots of the seeds before planting. In the break, we should be careful not to hurt the seed kernel, so that the seed can absorb water. Then soak the seeds in warm water of about 30 degrees for about 5 days. In the process of soaking, you should pay attention to changing the water once every two days. Then when the seeds germinate, put them into the prepared soil, transplant them at the right time after emergence, and water them after transplanting. Under suitable environmental conditions, the time from sowing to flowering is about two months.

3. Timely fertilization

The demand for nutrition of bowl lotus is relatively large, if there is a lack of nutrition in the planting process, it will seriously affect the growth of bowl lotus. Therefore, we should apply sufficient base fertilizer before planting to meet the growth and nutritional needs of bowl lotus. However, we need to note that although the bowl lotus needs a large amount of fertilizer, it should not be fertilized too much. Usually when the base fertilizer is sufficient, there is no need to apply fertilizer in the future. To prevent excessive fertilizer from causing lotus bowls to grow, but in order to increase the time of flowering, cake crumbs can be properly applied in summer. However, attention should be paid to fertilization to prevent excessive heat from burning the roots of lotus bowls.

4. Daily management

The demand for light of bowl lotus is relatively large, and the light time must be more than 5 hours every day, otherwise it will seriously affect the flower bud differentiation. During the growth period, it is best to let it receive full sunlight, and pay attention to the number of floating leaves to avoid reducing permeability. However, when the sun is too strong, we should also pay attention to proper shading to prevent burning, resulting in scorching. When the bowl lotus grows too thick, it is necessary to do a good job of pruning and picking leaves properly. It can not only promote the respiration of bowl lotus, but also reduce the consumption of nutrition and improve the flowering rate.

Plant culture is a technical activity, but also take good care of it, since you have decided to plant, you must stick to it.
