II. Cultivation Methods and Precautions for Celosia
Caring for Celosia requires attention to temperature, humidity, and pest control.
Temperature
Celosia should be placed in a well-lit area but not exposed to direct strong sunlight. Proper ventilation is also necessary.
Humidity
When seedlings are raised in early spring, it is important to control humidity to prevent stem necrosis. Attention should also be given to fertilizing during the seedling stage; if seedlings lack fertilizer or water, the plants will lack nutrition during growth, making them weak.
Those who love life can also place a pot of Celosia indoors or on the balcony. Seeing such a vibrant pot of flowers can help soothe one's mood and relieve stress.
Pest Control
Preventing waterlogging is the prerequisite for avoiding pest infestations. Accumulated water in the pot can lead to root rot and cause the plant to wither.
Remember to place the potted plant in a well-ventilated area and spray some plant disinfectant periodically when the weather is hot and humid.
If the plant has already been infested with pests, it is necessary to first locate the pests, remove them, cut off the parts infested by the pests, and then spray insecticide.
