The hot weather in summer is not only bad for the human body, but also a challenge for plants such as meat flowers. High temperatures can cause fleshy flower leaves to wither, flowers to fade and even plants to die. In order to help meat flowers spend the hot summer, this article will introduce some maintenance techniques and precautions for meat flowers under high temperatures.
1. Temperature control: Reasonably adjust the indoor temperature to avoid direct sun exposure. You can choose a cool and ventilated position to place meat flowers.
2. Moderate watering: Control the amount of watering according to the variety and growth status of meat flowers to keep the soil moist but not wet.
3. Avoid standing water: Make sure there are good drainage holes at the bottom of the flowerpot to avoid standing water causing root rot.
4. Spray water to cool down: In high temperature weather, you can regularly use a spray can to spray meat flower leaves to increase air humidity and reduce temperature.
5. Avoid excessive fertilizer: In hot weather, the metabolism of meat flowers slows down. Excessive fertilizer will put a burden on the plants, so appropriate fertilizer should be applied.
6. Prevention of pests: High temperature weather can easily cause the breeding of pests. Regularly inspect the leaves and stems of meat flowers. If pests are found, timely measures should be taken to prevent and control them.
7. Scientific lighting: When at high temperatures, appropriately reduce the lighting time of meat flowers and avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burns.
8. Pay attention to ventilation: In high temperature weather, poor indoor air circulation may easily cause mildew spots on the leaves of meat flowers. Open windows in time to ventilate to keep the air fresh.
9. Avoid moving: In hot weather, try to avoid moving meat flowers frequently to avoid being affected by temperature changes.
10. Manage flower buds: Under high temperatures, the flower buds of fleshy flowers will easily wither, so the flower buds will be withered and cut off in time to promote the growth of new flowers.
11. Adjust fertilizer concentration: Under high temperatures in summer, the growth rate of meat flowers slows down, so the fertilizer concentration should be appropriately reduced to avoid burning the plants.
12. High temperature treatment: If the meat flowers are damaged by high temperatures, move the plants to a cool and ventilated place, reduce the amount of watering, and wait for the temperature to drop before carrying out normal maintenance.
13. Prevent the pot soil from being too wet: In high temperature weather, the amount of watering should be controlled to avoid the pot soil being too wet and causing rotten roots.
14. Pay attention to pests and diseases: Under high temperature conditions, pests and diseases are easy to breed. The leaves and stems of meat flowers should be checked regularly, and if problems are found, they should be dealt with promptly.
15. Increase more humidity: In hot weather, you can increase air humidity to help meat flowers grow healthily, such as placing a basin or using a humidifier.
In the hot summer, meat flowers require special maintenance and attention. Reasonably regulating temperature, moderate watering, paying attention to pest prevention and ventilation are the key to protecting meat flowers. I hope the maintenance tips provided in this article will help your meat flowers survive the hot summer.
