How to raise the newly purchased evergreen flowers

This article will systematically analyze the key points of maintenance from five dimensions to help you create a vibrant green planting space. Core maintenance points Analysis of soil matrix, blending new seedlings should not be replaced immediately after arriving home. It is recommended to retain the original soil for maintenance for 15-20 days. After the transition period, a mixed substrate of humus soil + river sand + perlite was prepared with a ratio of 4:3:3, and 5% bone meal was added to enhance fertility. Reserve 1/3 of the core soil when changing pots, fill new soil along the pot wall and then press lightly to ensure that the roots and soil are closely integrated. Temperature and humidity control maintain a constant temperature environment of 22-30℃, and need to be higher than 15℃ in winter. Combined with the air humidity of 60-70%, pebbles can be laid on the water tray to assist in humidification. Pay attention to avoid the air conditioner outlet, as sudden changes in temperature may cause scorched leaf edges. For the first two weeks of the light adaptation plan, they were placed in a northbound scattered light environment and received 2-3 hours of soft light every day. Gradually increase it to 4 hours from the third week, and use a gauze curtain with a light-blocking rate of 40%. Regularly rotate the flowerpot 180 degrees to ensure even development of the plant type. The rhythm of water management adopts the principle of "seeing the dry, seeing the wet", and the bamboo stick test method determines the watering timing. 5-7 days per time in spring and autumn, 3-4 days in the morning in summer, and extended to 10-15 days in winter. Regularly wipe the leaves with beer and water (1:50) to remove dust and replenish nutrients. Advanced maintenance techniques Apply nutrient solution diluted 2000 times every month to avoid contact with the root system. Trim the aging leaves at the bottom in time to promote the germination of new buds. Use 800 times carbendazim solution to irrigate roots every quarter to prevent root rot.

Through scientific maintenance and management, the newly acquired evergreen can complete environmental adaptation within 2 months, showing strong vitality. Remember the nine-character formula of "slow transition, stabilize the environment, and refine maintenance", and you can easily cultivate high-quality potted plants with dark green leaves and full plant types.
