There are actually many experiences about how to carve narcissus. This article introduces a simple and easy-to-learn carved hydroponic method based on the personal experience of flower enthusiasts over 20 years, which is very suitable for beginners to carve narcissus and also includes experience in choosing narcissus bulbs.
1. Choosing narcissus bulbs and simple treatment: I usually buy narcissus bulbs (i.e., narcissus bulbs) at the花鸟 market at the beginning of December every year, choosing the largest, solid and hard ones with a slightly flat surface (carved into crab claws). After purchasing, remove the mud, old roots, and dark outer skin, then expose it to the sun for half a day and wrap it in newspaper and store it in a dry place.
2. Carving narcissus bulb and treatment: Depending on the date you want the narcissus to bloom, proceed with the carving. In our Ningbo climate, it usually takes 25 to 35 days from carving to blooming. Use a scalpel (or other small knife) to make a horizontal cut at one-fourth of the narcissus bulb, then make a vertical cut at the far left and right sides, and then peel off the scales layer by layer. When you see the light yellow flower buds, be extra careful, and you can carve to make the flower buds slightly protrude. If you want the stem and leaves to curve, gently touch the stem with a toothpick and slightly cut off one side of the leaves.
3. Treatment of narcissus bulb and potting: Place the carved narcissus bulb with the wounded side facing down and soak it in water, gently rinsing the sticky liquid on the wound with tap water every morning and continue soaking in water for 3 days. Then place the carved narcissus bulb with the cut side up in a previously cleaned pot, add an appropriate amount of stones and water as needed, and cover the cut side with medical cotton to help heal the wound. At the same time, cover the bulb with newspaper and place it in the shade for 2 days to encourage root growth and healing. After 2 days, gradually expose it to sunlight and then place it in strong sunlight for drying and enter the daily maintenance stage.
4. Precautions during daily maintenance: First, it is best to empty the water in the pot every night and fill it with water again in the morning, which prevents the leaves from falling over. Second, the longer it is exposed to strong sunlight, the better; at night, move it indoors, and if necessary, use a light to illuminate it at night, which will make the flowers large and fragrant. Third, during daily maintenance, make repairs to the leaves and stems as needed. Fourth, after one-third of the narcissus has bloomed, move it to a place with diffused light to extend the flowering period and enhance the viewing time.
