Cultivation method of mini roses
Due to their exquisite flower shapes and colorful colors, mini roses have become the favorite desktop potted plants for urban white-collar workers. If this romance in the office continues to bloom, it is crucial to master scientific maintenance methods. This article will explain the five core skills from soil to fertilization system to help you easily create a beautiful scenery for mini roses. 1. Basic environment construction 1.1 Soil preparation tips The mini rose root system has extremely high requirements for air permeability. It is recommended to use the "sandwich" soil mixing method: lay ceramite on the bottom layer (drainage layer) → layer vermiculite: peat soil =1:3 (water retaining layer) → Surface layer covered with pine scales (to prevent hardening). The basin soil needs to be replaced every 2 years to avoid salinization. 1.2 Intelligent light adjustment adopts the "morning light + fill light" mode: in spring and autumn, we receive 4 hours of direct light from the eastbound sill every day, and cooperate with LED plant lights to supplement 2000-3000Lux light. In summer, sunshade nets are needed to filter the noon light to prevent leaf burns and brown spots. 2. Water and fertilizer management system 2.1 Scientific watering rules implement the "fingertip detection method": Insert your index finger into the soil for 2 cm, and water is needed when it is dry. In summer,"dipping basin + spray" is used to replenish water: immerse the flower pot in the water for 10 minutes every Tuesday and Friday, and spray it in the morning and evening to increase the air humidity. Pay attention to using tap water that is dried for 24 hours to avoid chlorine damage. 2.2 The precise fertilization plan follows the "three-stage fertilization method" during the growth period (March to September): nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium 15-30-15 water-soluble fertilizer (1:1000) is used during the germination period, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate (1:1500) is used during the bud pregnancy period., and organic fertilizer of decomposed sheep manure is added after flowering. Stop fertilizer during winter dormancy to prevent root burning. 3. Environmental optimization strategy 3.1 Three-dimensional ventilation plan creates "three-way air flow": Place the flowerpot 5 cm high on the hollow flower stand, cooperate with a small USB fan for regular ventilation 3 times a day (20 minutes in the morning, middle and evening) to maintain air circulation. In the rainy season, the dehumidifier needs to be turned on to maintain a humidity of 55%-65% to prevent powdery mildew.
Through systematic maintenance such as soil improvement, light regulation, and water and fertilizer management, as well as the use of intelligent temperature and humidity monitoring equipment, even novice gardeners can make mini roses bloom all year round. It is recommended to establish a maintenance log to record the data of each watering and fertilization, and gradually form a personalized maintenance plan.
