【One, how to care for hydrangeas】
Caring for hydrangeas is not difficult, and only timely watering and fertilizing can make them grow robustly. However, when watering, be sure to avoid too much or too little water, as either can affect the plant's normal growth. Excessive watering can also cause root rot, which can easily lead to the death of the hydrangea if not dealt with promptly.
Therefore, to care for hydrangeas well, it is first necessary to understand their growth habits and then provide careful maintenance. So, friends who do not know how to care for hydrangeas can follow the methods below, which are also very easy to learn and can make the hydrangeas bloom gradually in no time.
【Two, the method of caring for hydrangeas】
<1. Choosing soil>
When growing hydrangeas, it is essential to choose fertile soil, as this can affect their growth, and the color of their flowers can also change with the soil. If grown in acidic soil, the flowers tend to be blue, and if grown in alkaline soil, the flowers tend to be red. Therefore, everyone can adjust the color of the flowers according to their preferences.
<2. Watering management>
Hydrangeas require a large amount of water, and they are usually grown outdoors. Therefore, in the summer, water evaporates quickly, so it is necessary to increase the amount of watering. When watering, not only should the soil be watered, but the branches and leaves should also be watered appropriately to help the hydrangea absorb water more effectively.
<3. Fertilizing culture>
The blooming period of hydrangeas is from June to July. During this period, the plant needs plenty of fertilizer and water, with fertilization once every half month. Hydrangeas consume a lot of soil nutrients during the blooming period, so it is especially important to supplement fertilizer and water during this time. Before the blooming period, long-acting compound fertilizers can be applied. Without timely fertilization, it is difficult for hydrangeas to bloom.
<4. Appropriate sunlight>
Hydrangeas do not require a lot of sunlight, so they can be placed in a semi-shaded environment when grown indoors. If direct sunlight is too strong, it can cause leaf burn and affect the blooming state. In the autumn, as temperatures gradually decrease, it is necessary to expose the plant to more sunlight to extend the blooming period and help produce more flower buds.
