It is difficult to grow flowers in the rainy season. If various protective measures are taken, the root system will be strong and still grow vigorously.

In July, it was rainy and rainy in the north, and the air pressure was very low, which made people feel very depressed.

Although the leaves of plants exposed to the outside are washed clean by the rain, the soil in the basin is so wet that water can be squeezed out.

Although tea has an exposed environment in addition to winter, I still envy the flower lovers who have a big yard, which is an advantage for those who grow flowers and grass. However, it will still hurt to take it lightly in the rainy season. In order to avoid some unnecessary harm, tea has also been "taught", so I still think the following aspects should be paid attention to in the rainy season: 0 1 Potted plants that are afraid of getting wet should take shelter from the rain, although rain is better than running water to water flowers. On rainy days, I always want to "drink" enough potted plants at a time, but some plants just can't get wet. Take shelter from the rain in time in rainy days to avoid shortening the flowering period or causing yellow leaves to rot.

Potted plants in flowering period in summer should be avoided as far as possible in rainy days. After the rain wets the flowers, it will not only shorten the flowering period, but also make the flowers rot, breed germs and cause unnecessary harm, such as the upside-down golden bell, fragrant vines and blue snowflakes.

In summer, the dormant or semi-dormant potted plants should be sheltered from the rain in rainy days, or moved back indoors for maintenance, so as to avoid root rot caused by the wet soil in the pots, such as Erythrina macrophylla, Cyclamen cyclamen and Gerbera jamesonii.

And some plants with fluffy leaves. After being caught in the rain, water is not easy to evaporate. After remaining on the leaves, it is easy to cause the leaves to turn yellow and rot, such as the fragrant and fleshy bear boy. In addition, like cactus, it can't stay in the rain for a long time, and the water on it is easy to cause decay.

Avoid continuous rain. Some time ago, friends in the south said that the rain there was a "full moon". It rained every day, and it was almost moldy. They are worried that the potted plants exposed to the rain will rot, but they can't shelter from the rain, so they have to let nature take its course.

In fact, in rainy weather, if the soil in the flowerpot has good air permeability and drainage, excess water in the flowerpot will flow out from the bottom of the pot, so don't worry too much about water accumulation.

However, if the basin soil is hardened and the drainage is not good, it will easily cause water accumulation. For potted plants that are afraid of stagnant water, it will cause the roots to "breathe" and lack oxygen, which may cause rotten roots, such as camellia, osmanthus, chrysanthemum and cactus.

There are also some plants that grow rapidly when the soil in the basin is too wet, especially on rainy days. When there is no sunshine, it is easier to grow in white, which affects both appreciation and flowering.

Therefore, in the case of continuous rainy weather, it is best to shelter the potted plants from the rain, so as to avoid long-term over-wet soil, leading to rotten roots or vain growth, or controlling water after rain.

Dump the accumulated water in the flowerpot or tray in time. The reason why I mentioned this is because some time ago, when I was chatting with my flower friends, Tea said there was a rainstorm and the tray was full of water. Huayou said it would be fine after the rain, and the water in the tray would evaporate in almost two days, so he ignored it.

In fact, the flowerpot was very wet after the rain, and there was water in the tray, indicating that the roots of the plants were soaked in the water. After the sun comes out, the water in the tray is heated by the sun, and the heat will be transferred to the roots at the bottom of the flowerpot. In addition, the surface of the basin soil is also heated by the sun, which makes the root system in a "sandwich" sultry state, which affects the root respiration and easily damages the root system.

Therefore, if there is water in the tray after rain, whether it is stored in a container or dumped, it is recommended not to leave water in the tray.

For potted plants with good soil drainage, continuous cloudy days are not terrible, as long as the accumulated water in the tray is dumped or the tray is removed in time.

In addition, for potted plants that are afraid of water accumulation, in continuous rainy weather, tea is advised to take shelter from the rain and avoid being caught in the rain for a long time, or tilt the flowerpot to avoid water accumulation.

For potted plants that are not afraid of stagnant water, the stagnant water in flowerpots or trays should be poured out in time to avoid damaging the roots.

Avoid warm potted plants with stuffy roots and exposed plants after rain. When they are placed too densely or covered, the ventilation conditions will become worse, especially when there is no wind, the water will evaporate slowly and the basin soil will be wet for a long time. Even if it is exposed, it will be very unfriendly to the roots.

Therefore, it is suggested to move the flowerpots after the rain, rearrange and stagger the flowerpots that were placed neatly before, increase the gap between flowerpots or plants, and increase the ventilation conditions, which also provides favorable conditions for the evaporation speed of water.

After the rain clears, the sun shines brightly, and the maintenance of potted plants is often neglected, especially for novice flower lovers, it feels beautiful at last, the water will evaporate faster and the soil will dry faster.

Indeed, when there is sunshine, water will evaporate quickly. But after the rain, water drops are still hanging on the branches and leaves of plants. Under the irradiation of sunlight, the temperature of leaves with water droplets will rise, which is easy to get sunburned and affects viewing.

Moreover, under the exposure of the sun, the temperature of the outer wall of the pot soil and the flowerpot will rise, which will make the pot soil in a sultry state and cause a stuffy root state, especially for some plants that are afraid of exposure after rain, which can be said to be fatal "harm".

For example, small hibiscus, after being caught in the rain, is exposed to high temperature, and its poles are prone to black rot. As long as there is black rot, it spreads quickly and cannot be saved.

The small hibiscus flower in the picture below was still in full bloom a week ago, but it was black and rotten after being rained, and soon its leaves turned yellow and withered.

Take protective measures for plants that are prone to lodging. In windy and rainy weather, it is simply "destruction" for plants that grow taller or have soft branches and leaves. They are staggered by wind and rain, even the stems and leaves are blown off by the wind, and the plants are messy.

For example, Dahlia, Zhu Dinghong, tuberose, etc. Originally, it seemed to grow vigorously and the plant type looked neat. Often, after a heavy rain or strong wind, they stagger out of their hair styles, and even their stems and leaves are broken, so they can only be trimmed.

Therefore, for plants prone to lodging, before the storm comes, move them to a place where they can shelter from the wind and rain, or fix their stems with brackets to avoid being blown down or broken by the wind, which will affect their growth and appreciation.

The rainy season is not terrible. As long as we pay attention to these aspects, we will avoid unnecessary harm. On the contrary, potted plants will be "baptized" in the rain, full of vitality and more ornamental value.
