Matters needing attention in Millennium flower cultivation

Sunday, September 8th, 20 19 (the 10th day of August in the Year of the Pig, 53 days have passed since the Millennium of 20 19).

Introduction to the Millennium: The first15th solar term in 24 solar terms falls between September 7th and 9th in the Gregorian calendar every year, which is the end of the application for the official calendar month and the beginning of the unitary month.

The Millennium is the fifteenth of the twenty-four solar terms, and it is the millennium when the sun reaches 165 degrees in the middle of August (September 7 or 8 in the western calendar).

Millennium knowledge: when the weather turns cold in the Millennium season, you will find many dewdrops on the ground and leaves in the morning, named after the condensation of water vapor on them at night. The ancients used four seasons with five elements, and autumn was golden and golden white, so white was used to describe autumn dew. After entering the "Millennium", I will feel a little cold at night.

As the saying goes, "eighteen pots of summer heat, not exposed to the Millennium." These two sentences mean that it is still hot in summer, so you must take a bath with a basin of water every day. After eighteen days, in the new millennium, don't be shirtless and naked, lest you catch cold. There is also a saying: "White dew and white fans, the autumn equinox is beautiful." This means that if there is dew before and after the white dew, the late rice will have a good harvest.

Therefore, the management of flowers in the Millennium season is different from the usual way. The following small series will introduce you to the knowledge of flower cultivation in the Millennium season.

How to raise flowers in the Millennium solar terms;

illuminate

Some woody flowers that love light in summer, such as jasmine, hibiscus and murraya, should still be placed in sunny places, so that plants can fully receive light, promote the maturity of branches in that year, and make them overwinter safely. Potted flowers such as Rhododendron, Clivia, Cyclamen, Poinsettia and Crab Claw Orchid that bloom around the Spring Festival should also be placed in sunny places and receive sufficient sunlight, otherwise the flowering period will be delayed or even not flowering.

In addition, it should be noted that general foliage plants are more tolerant to shade and can provide some light appropriately.

prune

Except for flowers that bloom in early spring, most flowers such as jasmine, crape myrtle and pomegranate can be pruned and reshaped in autumn, which can reduce the consumption of nutrients in winter and promote the flowering of potted flowers in the next year. When pruning, the diseased branches, dead branches, over-dense branches and long branches are removed in vain, laying a good foundation for potted flowers to overwinter.

3. Water and fertilizer

How to fertilize flowers after Millennium? Start to control the watering amount of flowers at the right time and stop fertilizing, so as to avoid too much water rotting the roots, and too much fertilizer will lead to the white growth of branches and leaves, which will affect the wintering. Flowers that bloom around the Spring Festival, such as Cyclamen, Clivia, Crab Claw Orchid and Rhododendron. , has passed the dormant period, began to enter the growth season. Therefore, the management of fertilizer and water should be strengthened from autumn to Spring Festival, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied appropriately to facilitate the formation of flower buds.

Enter the room

Can be treated according to different varieties of flowers. Flowers and trees such as Hibiscus hibiscus, Poinsettia, Begonia, Cyclamen cyclamen, Jasmine, Colored-leaf Grass, and Tortoise Shell Bamboo should be moved indoors when the temperature is 10 degrees Celsius. Chlorophytum, asparagus, Eupatorium odoratum, Liriodendron chinense, rubber tree, etc. , should also be moved indoors when the temperature is 5 degrees Celsius.

Of course, Bian Xiao said that to everyone. You must remember that you should be diligent in the open air, be kind to your flowers and be kind to yourself.

Through our introduction, I believe that everyone has a deeper understanding of the matters needing attention in flower cultivation in the Millennium.
