Water lilies are beautiful aquatic plants. Their flowers are colorful, bringing endless imagination space and beautiful emotions to people. However, many people encounter some problems when maintaining water lilies, such as not many flowers and slow growth. This article will introduce you to how to properly maintain water lilies so that they can bloom more and bring more beauty and vitality.
1: Choosing the right water environment The water environment is very important for the growth of water lilies. First of all, pay attention to the cleanliness of the water quality and do not let the water in the pool become turbid, otherwise it will affect the growth of water lilies. Secondly, we must ensure that the water depth is suitable. Generally speaking, the growth of water lilies requires a water depth of between 50 and 100 centimeters. Too deep or too shallow will affect their growth.
2: Pay attention to water temperature and water quality. Water lilies have high requirements for water temperature and water quality, so special attention should be paid during the maintenance process. The water temperature should be maintained between 20-30 degrees Celsius to ensure the normal growth and flowering of water lilies. Water lilies also have certain requirements on the hardness and pH of water. The water quality must be tested regularly and adjusted as needed.
3: Appropriate fertilization can promote the growth and flowering of water lilies. Generally speaking, water lilies require the use of nutrients such as organic fertilizer or potassium dihydrogen phosphate, but do not overapply fertilizer, otherwise it will have a negative impact on plant growth.
Four: Pruning and pruning Water lily pruning and pruning are also very important. During the growth period, prune leaves, flowers, dead leaves and other parts in time to keep the plants clean and beautiful. In addition, at the end of the growing season, plants need to be pruned appropriately to put them into a dormant state.
Five: Controlling water siltation Water siltation is a common problem in the growth of water lilies. If there are too many humus, weeds, fallen leaves, etc. in the pool, it will lead to siltation of the water body, which will affect the growth and flowering of water lilies. Clean the pool regularly to avoid accumulation.
6: Properly prune the roots of water lilies also need to be pruned properly. During spring or summer, the root system grows vigorously, so at this time, some unnecessary root systems can be appropriately pruned to maintain the balance of plant growth.
Seven: Keep the soil moist Water lilies need to keep the soil moist, but do not over-water it. Generally speaking, water should be poured every few days to keep the soil moist. If the soil is too dry, it will affect the growth of plants.
Eight: Regularly replace water bodies The maintenance of water lilies also requires regular replacement of water bodies. While cleaning the pond, you can replace all the water in the pond and add appropriate amount of nutrient solution and other substances to promote the growth and flowering of water lilies.
Nine: Prevent pests and diseases. Water lilies are easily affected by pests and diseases. During the maintenance process, attention should be paid to preventing pests and diseases, and copper oxalate, sulfur and other substances can be used for spraying.
Ten: Reasonably choose water lily varieties and choose the right water lily varieties is also very important. Different varieties of water lily have certain differences in growth, flowering time, size, etc., so you need to choose the right variety according to your own situation to obtain better growth results.
Eleven: Pay attention to the impact of cold spring water on water lilies. Cold spring weather will cause the water temperature to drop, which will affect the growth and flowering of water lilies. Special attention should be paid to water temperature and water environment in spring.
Twelve: Maintaining ventilation in water bodies Maintaining ventilation in water bodies is also an important aspect of water lily maintenance. If the pool is too closed, bacteria and pests will easily breed, which will affect the growth and flowering of water lilies.
XIII: Pay attention to the impact of fish on water lilies If there are fish in the pool, you also need to pay attention to their impact on water lilies. Fish can have an impact on the water environment and may eat water lily flowers and leaves, so proper management and control of fish is needed.
Fourteen: Regularly check the growth of water lilies. Regularly check the growth of water lilies is also very important. If it is found that the growth status of the water lily is not good, timely measures can be taken to adjust it to prevent the water lily from being in a bad state for a long time.
Fifteen: Maintaining based on actual conditions It should be emphasized that maintaining water lilies needs to be carried out based on actual conditions. The conditions of each pool are different, and corresponding adjustments and management need to be made according to your own conditions.
Maintaining water lilies requires attention to many aspects, including water environment, water quality, fertilization, pruning, cleaning, etc. Only when comprehensive, scientific and systematic management is achieved can water lilies grow better and bloom more. I hope this article can help you turn your pool into a beautiful garden.
