The "bougainvillea" at home does not bloom vigorously
Bougainvillea is popular among gardeners for its gorgeous colors, but many flower lovers often encounter the problem of sparse flowering. To make this "flowering machine" truly show its explosive power, it needs to be comprehensively optimized from environmental control to maintenance details. Analysis of the four elements of Bougainvillea bursting. Light intensity and duration Controlling light is the energy code for Bougainvillea blooming. It is recommended to ensure 6-8 hours of direct light every day, and full sunshine maintenance can be carried out in spring and autumn. Proper shade needs to be shaded at noon in summer, but strong light should still be ensured in the morning and evening. It is recommended to use full-spectrum fill light to assist in indoor maintenance. Scientific water control and flower promotion techniques adopt the "dry and wet cycle method": wait until 3cm of the pot soil surface is dry and then irrigate it thoroughly. Water can be appropriately controlled for 2 weeks before flowering (keep the leaves slightly wilted) to stimulate flower bud differentiation. Rainwater or tap water that is left standing for 2 days is recommended in areas with hard water quality in the north. Temperature and overwintering management The optimal growth temperature is 15-28℃, and continuous flowering can be achieved if it stays above 10℃ in winter. In the northern heating area, pay attention to maintaining the air humidity of more than 40%, which can be adjusted by laying wet pebbles on trays. Wear transparent plastic bags for insulation when the cold wave comes. Advanced flower promotion program Nutritional supplement program At home,"bougainvillea" does not bloom vigorously
Alternate use potassium dihydrogen phosphate (1:1000) and decomposed banana peel extract during flowering. Aspirin solution (0.3 g/liter of water) can promote root development after monthly irrigation. It is recommended to use it with EM bacterial stock solution for better results. Tips for pruning and styling cut off residual flowers and long branches in time after flowers, and retain 2-3 bud points. It is recommended to retain the 45° bevel angle of the main branch and combine it with aluminum wire coil to create an umbrella-shaped shape. Regular pickings promote secondary branches during the growth period.
Through systematic maintenance plans, bougainvillea can be blossomed all year round. It is recommended to establish a maintenance log to record data such as light duration and watering cycle, and dynamically adjust management measures based on plant feedback. Regularly rotate the flowerpot to ensure uniform light reception, and cooperate with microbial inoculants to improve the soil, which will surely allow the bougainvillea to bloom in an amazing flower waterfall.
