How to plant and care for hydrangeasArticle abstract: This article describes the small green plant care experiences of how to plant and care for hydrangeas, including the timing and methods of sowing. Next, the editor of this site will introduce to everyone.However, hydrangeas are different. Even if the sun is very hot or there is a lack of water, they always maintain a vigorous growth momentum, growing towards the sun and drought, especially the hydrangeas planted in the ground grow especially luxuriantly.One day, I saw a hydrangea at a flower friend's house, and it was really great. Each flower head looked as big as a basketball, clustering together, and combined with the lush green leaves, it was simply beautiful. Moreover, the hydrangeas in his house can bloom from June to autumn each time they flower.So, how exactly is this achieved? Today, Flower Flower shares his care techniques with everyone, let's take a look together~I. FertilizingMany flower friends have always reported that the flowering period of their hydrangeas is very short, and the flower heads are relatively small when they bloom each time, not as satisfying.In fact, the reason for this situation is not due to everyone's usual maintenance issues, after all, hydrangeas are very easy to grow plants, and everyone can water normally or bask in the sun. The main problem is actually a lack of fertilizer.Some hydrangea varieties are not easy to care for, and if you don't fertilize them, they won't even bloom. If you want your hydrangeas to bloom bigger, more, and for a longer period, you must apply fertilizer.Flower Flower recommends that everyone fertilize every two weeks, which can be organic fertilizers made at home, such as cake fertilizer, soybean dregs fertilizer, etc.Since hydrangeas are plants that can adjust their flower color through acidity and alkalinity, everyone should pay attention to this when fertilizing.If you want to make the hydrangea bloom in a more red color, then try to apply some alkaline fertilizers, such as wood ash, etc.If you want it to be more blue, apply some acidic fertilizers, such as ripe rice water, etc. Each time you apply the fertilizer, try to make it a bit thin and apply it more frequently, so you can continuously ensure the supply and absorption of nutrients.II. WateringHydrangeas require a lot of water during growth, which can be seen from their numerous leaves and large flower heads. Especially in summer, the evaporation of water is also relatively large, so we must not be lazy when caring for hydrangeas and must be attentive when watering.The best way is to keep the potting soil slightly moist, not too dry or too flooded. If you find too much water accumulated in the potting soil, you should drain the water promptly.III. SunlightActually, about this point, Flower Flower thinks that most flower friends don't need to worry about this issue at all, because hydrangeas do not like too strong direct sunlight, so everyone generally knows that they should be placed in a place with scattered light for maintenance.If exposed to direct sunlight, it may cause the leaves to curl and turn yellow, and may also lead to incomplete blooming of the flower buds, making them look very weak, so you need to pay attention.The above is Green Plant Enthusiast Network's specific introduction on how to plant and care for hydrangeas, describing the sowing time and methods, for netizens to refer to and learn.
