Violet Planting Time
Violets are generally planted from early August to early October every year. The specific planting time can be adjusted according to the flowering time. With a good care environment, their growth period is about 3 months, so if flowers are needed in May, planting can be done in February.
Violet Planting Methods
1. Planting method: Violets usually adopt propagation by planting, selecting single-petal flowers for seed collection, placing them in moist potting soil, spreading them evenly on the soil, covering them with a thin layer of soil, and placing them in a shaded environment.
2. Transplanting time: After planting violets, it is necessary to transplant after the true leaves have unfolded. The seedlings should be removed without damaging the roots and some soil should be retained. Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied before transplanting, and watering should be done immediately after planting.
3. Later-stage care: In the seedling stage, violets require ample water and fertilizer. It is best to water every other day to keep the soil moist. Fertilizing can be done every 10 days, applying diluted fertilizer.
Points to Consider When Planting Violets
1. After planting violets, it is important not to water immediately. If the soil is relatively dry, the bottom of the pot can be soaked in water, or water can be sprinkled on the soil surface with a spray bottle.
2. After transplanting, violets need to be placed in a shaded place for care. They can only be moved to a sunny place after the roots are stable.
