How to raise the newly purchased impatiens
I am always looking forward to and anxious to receive a newly purchased balsam. This ornamental plant, known as the "henna", has captured countless flower friends with its bright colors. However, the newly transplanted impatiens are particularly fragile. This article will systematically analyze the key points of maintenance from environmental adaptation to daily management to help you easily create a window sill flower landscape. It is recommended to adopt the "three-period gradual method" to regulate the light intensity step by step: receive 2 hours of morning light before 10 o'clock every day in the first week, extend it to 3 hours in the next week and increase the sunset after 15 o'clock in the afternoon, and stabilize it at 4 hours of scattered light in the third week. Note that in summer, sunshade nets are needed to filter strong light, and in winter, full sunshine can be accepted. Temperature and humidity management Temperature step-by-step adjustment At the beginning of the transplant, the golden temperature band of 18-22℃ is maintained, and a temperature and humidity meter is used to monitor in real time. It is recommended to use the "temperature difference wake-up method": maintain 22-24℃ during the day and drop it to 18-20℃ at night to simulate the natural environment to promote metabolism. The air humidity is controlled at 50-70%, and can be sprayed in the morning and evening through an atomizing spray can. The three-observation method of water and fertilizer control watering implements the "three-observation watering principles": observe leaves (slightly wilted), observe soil (surface layer 2cm dry), and observe weather (continuous sunny days). It is recommended to replenish water by dipping pot: Place the flower pot on the water tray for 15 minutes to allow the roots to absorb water on their own. During the safe period of fertilization, there is a restricted area for fertilization within 30 days after transplantation. After the new buds germinate with 2 pairs of true leaves, a special nutrient solution for orchid diluted 3000 times (N-P-K=20 - 20) can be applied and sprayed on the leaves once a month. Remember to follow the principle of "applying thinly and diligently".
After 30 days of scientific maintenance, you will find that the impatiens gradually show their vitality: the leaves return to standing upright on the 5th to 7th day, new buds germinate in about 15 days, and a complete crown can be formed after 30 days. Remember the "three slow principles": slow light, slow water, slow fertilizer, and regularly rotating the flowerpot to ensure uniform light reception, so that this oriental beauty can bloom with charming style.
