How to raise the newly purchased taro flowers
Newbie flower lovers who have just started calla flowers are often attracted by their wide and shiny leaves, but they don't know how to maintain them correctly. As a perennial herb of the Araceae family, calloca flowers have both ornamental value and require special maintenance. This article will systematically analyze the six key maintenance factors to help you create a green home plant landscape. The three elements of environmental regulation and control coordinate light and temperature to promote the growth of Alosia flowers prefer to scatter light. In summer, sunshade nets are needed to filter 50% of the strong light, and in winter, full sunshine can be accepted. Maintain the optimal growth temperature of 20-25 ° C. When the temperature falls below 10 ° C, the leaves will appear with yellow spots, so they need to be moved indoors in time and bagged for insulation. Air humidity management recommends spraying the leaves with an atomized spray can every morning and evening, and using tray hydroponic pebbles to maintain the ideal humidity of 60%-80%. Be careful to avoid spraying water during high temperatures at noon to prevent leaf burns. Advanced Water and Fertilizer Management Method Precise watering techniques use bamboo stick testing method: Insert the bamboo stick into 2/3 of the pot soil and extract it to observe moisture traces. The surface layer can be poured thoroughly after being dried by 2 cm, and in winter, it can be poured partially along the edge of the basin. Adjust the soil pH with ferrous sulfate solution once a month. Scientific fertilization plan The base fertilizer selection when changing pots: decomposed sheep manure (3 parts)+ pine needle soil (5 parts)+ perlite (2 parts). Huaduo No. 1 diluted 1000 times is applied every half of the month during the growth period, and fertilizer is stopped and water is controlled during the dormant period. Special Conservation Guidelines Soil Activation Strategies Use a horticultural three-toothed harrow to loosen the soil 2-3 times a month to a depth of no more than 5 cm. When changing pots every spring, add 5% vermiculite to improve air permeability and prevent root rot. Safety protection instructions must wear rubber gloves when touching plants, and wash tools with soapy water immediately after pruning. If the juice accidentally touches the skin, rinse with baking soda solution. It is recommended to place it at a height out of reach of children.
Through systematic maintenance and management, the calocasia flowers can remain green all year round. Keep in mind the six-character formula of "soft light, soft water, moistening, fat and thin", and combine with regular rotation of the pot to evenly receive light, you will harvest healthy plants with full plant types and well-defined veins. It is recommended to establish a maintenance log, record the watering and fertilization time, and gradually grasp the growth laws of plants.
