How to raise geraniums and longevity flowers?

Temperature control: the optimum temperature of geranium is 10-20 degrees Celsius, that is, it is most suitable in spring and autumn, which is too cold in winter and too hot in summer. Therefore, it is necessary to prevent the sun from being exposed in summer. It's definitely useless to wear sunscreen. Put it in a cool place. The indoor temperature should not be lower than 0 in winter, otherwise it will be frostbitten. If there is no warm-keeping equipment, turning on a 200 light bulb in a small room will also have a certain anti-freezing effect.

Water control: geranium is forbidden to water too much. If the root of geranium is found to fester, it is mostly caused by excessive watering and sultry weather. The frequency of watering should be controlled once every three or two days. Every time you water it, you need a lot of water to water it thoroughly.

Selection of soil: geranium is suitable for living in sandy soil, and it is better to mix some sandy soil with the soil bought in the flower market.

Pay attention to pest control: leaf spot and blight are easy to breed geraniums. If the leaves turn yellow, consult a professional flower seller and don't deal with them at will.

Prevent the influence of bad weather: strong wind will break geranium, while heavy rain will soak the roots of geranium in rain, causing root respiration and hypoxia, thus festering. Therefore, in order to raise geraniums, you should pay attention to the weather forecast.

Control of fertilization: too much fertilization at one time will cause dehydration of geranium, but I can't tell you how much fertilization is appropriate, because it is related to the quality of your soil, the size of your flowerpot and the size of geranium. When buying flowers, you'd better ask the store about the amount and frequency of fertilization. If you apply too much fertilizer, for example, too much nitrogen fertilizer will cause plants to grow wildly without flowering. So your geranium is of low value. Excessive fertilization and logistics watering can relieve symptoms.

Plenty of sunshine: Plenty of sunshine helps geraniums to bloom, but it is not suitable for direct sunlight when the temperature is too high. In spring and autumn, we should control the temperature and get more sunshine. In summer, don't do it if the temperature is too high.

Longevity flower maintenance

Suitable growth temperature. Generally speaking, the suitable growth temperature of longevity flower is 65438 05℃ to 25℃. When the temperature is too high or too low, the longevity flower will be dormant, which will affect the growth demand of longevity flower. Therefore, in the process of cultivation, attention should be paid to avoiding exposure in summer, and longevity flowers can be cultivated indoors when the temperature is too low in winter.

Suitable lighting time. Longevity flowers generally like to grow in sunny environment, but except in summer, they can be placed in sunny places in general seasons to prevent exposure. If the longevity flower is kept in a cool environment for a long time, it is not conducive to the growth needs of the longevity flower, and it will also lead to the situation that the leaves are easy to fall off and cannot be spent.

Sufficient growth moisture. As far as the growth habits of longevity flowers are concerned, longevity flowers belong to drought-resistant flowers and do not need a lot of watering. Generally, it is enough to water once every 3-4 days, and it is enough to keep the soil moist. We should also pay attention to controlling watering mainly in wet season to prevent root rot of longevity flowers due to excessive water.

Fertilize correctly. Longevity flowers also need sufficient nutrients in the growth process. Therefore, in the peak season of longevity flowers, it is necessary to apply compound liquid fertilizer to longevity flowers once every two weeks, which is conducive to promoting the growth demand of longevity flowers and promoting more flowers to bloom.

Control pests and diseases. With the improvement of environmental gentleness, longevity flowers are easily infected by pests and diseases. Pay attention to keep indoor ventilation to prevent pests and diseases from entering the room, and mainly use some pesticides to prevent the infection of pests and diseases. The main diseases we saw were downy mildew and anthracnose.
