Indoor maintenance Outdoor maintenance With the arrival of winter, the temperature gradually drops, and plants begin to enter a dormant period. How to allow plants to safely survive the cold winter has become the focus of attention of many plant lovers. This article will provide you with a detailed introduction to winter plant maintenance Tips to help your plants survive a warm winter. Indoor maintenance 1. Control temperature: In winter, the indoor temperature should be kept above 10 ° C to avoid freezing of plants. If the indoor temperature is too low, you can use heating or electric heater to adjust.
2. Appropriate watering: In winter, the water requirement of plants is reduced, and the watering frequency should be appropriately reduced. When watering, the water temperature should be close to room temperature to avoid freezing on the roots of plants.
3. Light and sun protection: The sun is weak in winter, and the amount of light required by plants is reduced. You can move plants to a place with sufficient indoor light to avoid direct sunlight.
4. Appropriate fertilization: Plants grow slowly in winter, so the number of fertilization can be appropriately reduced. When fertilizing, choose compound fertilizers with low nitrogen and high phosphorus and potassium to promote plant growth.
5. Prevention of pests and diseases: Winter is a period of high incidence of pests and diseases. Plants should be inspected in time and pests discovered should be dealt with promptly. Outdoor maintenance 1. Move it indoors: For plants that are not cold-resistant, such as green radish, spider plants, etc., they should be moved indoors for maintenance.
2. Wind and snow protection: Outdoor plants should take measures to prevent wind and snow to avoid damage to plants.
3. Appropriate pruning: Plants grow slowly in winter, so dead branches and sick branches can be appropriately pruned to promote plant growth.
4. Anti-freezing measures: Outdoor plants can take the following anti-freezing measures: a. Spray antifreeze: When the temperature drops sharply, spray antifreeze to protect plants from freezing damage.
b. Covering and insulation: Cover plants with straw mats, plastic films and other materials to maintain insulation.
c. Irrigation: When the temperature is low, appropriate irrigation will increase the soil temperature and reduce plant exposure to freezing.
5. Timely fertilization: Outdoor plants grow slowly in winter, but appropriate fertilization is still needed to supplement nutrients.
Plant maintenance in winter requires careful care. Only by mastering the correct maintenance methods can plants survive the cold winter safely. I hope this article can provide some help for your plant maintenance and wish your plants grow healthily!
