Winter flowers require more sun exposure and less watering.
This article provides a detailed introduction to the knowledge of home flower cultivation. In winter, flowers should be exposed to more sunlight and watered less frequently. Next, let's see the introduction by the editor.
Mr. Mo, who loves flowers, has placed two potted ornamental plants in his office――the Golden虎球. The green spherical plant extends golden spines, which are very appealing. A few days ago, he watered the Golden虎ball a little, but unexpectedly, the sphere started to turn yellow. In the past two days, the roots have turned black and the situation is getting worse. He asked his colleagues if they had any magical methods to save it.
“The main reason why it's hard for city dwellers' home flowers to survive the winter is excessive watering. Winter flowers should be exposed to more sunlight and watered less”, said Manager Tian from the Jinling Flower Market. Because the temperature is low in winter, the humidity is high, and the plants consume less, frequent watering can cause excessive soil moisture, leading to root rot. If the flowers are placed outdoors, they may even freeze or freeze to death. The Golden虎ball is a cactus plant, which is naturally drought-resistant and should be watered even less or not at all. Other flowers should be watered once every ten to fifteen days, and the amount of water each time should not be too much. In winter, flowers should be exposed to sunlight frequently, and on sunny days, the pots can be moved outside, and brought back inside at night.
It is understood that home flower cultivation is a joyful form of labor. Many people feel that not watering the flowers is like “not fulfilling their responsibility”, which is mainly due to a lack of deep understanding of flower cultivation. In fact, there is a lot to learn about flower cultivation. Watering is indeed important, but when and how much to water is even more important, especially in winter, more attention should be paid.
The above introduction on “Winter Flower Cultivation: More Sunlight and Less Watering” hopes to bring some flower knowledge to flower enthusiasts.
