New Year's Eve, there are a lot of beautiful flowers in the flower market, and the brightly colored cyclamen must be the first choice for flower lovers.
Cyclamen, an ancient species, has witnessed the rise and fall of human civilization since its settlement in the Mediterranean.
(1) Like warmth, bask in the sun! However, in summer, it should be more ventilated and not exposed to the sun, and plants above 35 °C are easy to rot. Between 10~20 °C is more suitable for the growth of cyclamen, and the temperature should be controlled when it is too low or too high.
(2) Watering, watering around the potting soil, do not pour or spray water on the flowers.
(3) The soil is breathable, loose, has good drainage performance and is weakly acidic.
(4) Fertilization does not need to be too diligent, the demand for fertilizer is not very large, and the fertilization is reduced when entering the flowering period, otherwise it will significantly shorten the flowering period.
【Apply compound fertilizer once in spring and autumn growing season, and a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer during flowering.】 】
(5) Summer is the dormant season for cyclamen, stop fertilizing in summer and keep the potting soil slightly moist!
(6) Qingming left and right to change the pot, you can add some organic fertilizer as the bottom fertilizer when changing the pot~
(1) Sowing and propagation: put the seeds into water with a temperature of 30 °C ~ 35 °C to soak for 24h, disinfect and sterilize the soil before sowing, keep the soil moist, and the humidity should reach about 90%.
(2) Propagation by cuttings: generally carried out in spring in March to April. Select healthy seed bulbs [diameter > 3CM], there should be more than 2 bud eye bulbs for division, adopt a straight cutting method to ensure that each place has a bud eye, and then treat with grass and wood ash after cuttings.
(1) Winter will grow buds, is the flowering stage, cyclamen cold resistance is not high, it is recommended to put it indoors for maintenance, 15 ° C -18 ° C is the best, the lowest indoor temperature should be maintained above 10 degrees. [The temperature is below 5 °C, and the temperature should be controlled. 】
(2) The light in winter is very soft, and it is necessary to bask in the sun more.
(3) Appropriate amount of water, see dry watering.
(4) Avoid heating equipment, not too close, to avoid burns.
(5) Flowering in winter, potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer once every two weeks, a small amount each time, divided into multiple times.
(1) Why did the cyclamen who took it back quickly become "depressed"?
1. If the plant is short of water, you can replenish the water for the plant by soaking the pot, and put it in a cool and ventilated place after soaking the pot, and the cyclamen leaves can stand up after a while.
2. The water is rotten roots, you need to remove the rotten part, replant, usually weigh the weight of the potting soil, feel obviously lighter before watering.
3. The light is too strong, quickly move to a cool and ventilated place and let it slowly come back.
(2) The correct watering method for cyclamen?
When growing, the requirements for moisture are high, 3~5 days to water, if the climate is dry, you must spray water frequently to moisturize. During the dormant stage in summer, the water demand is small, and dry watering should be seen. In winter, it is better to have less than more. If it is in the flowering stage, the amount of water consumed is small, and the soil should be watered if it is found to be slightly dry, and it is necessary to water ferrous sulfate water every half month to maintain acidity and promote better flowering.
(3) Why does cyclamen have yellow leaves?
1. Cyclamen is a squeamish plant, lack of light will wilt, too high temperature will wilt! Under normal circumstances, it is kept in a bright and airy place with scattered light. [Do not put direct places, light too often, long time to receive light or too strong light leaves are easy to burn, will be yellow. ] So first see if you misplaced it.]
2. Get cyclamen to see if the potting soil is wet, if it is relatively wet, you can directly put it in the semi-shade for a few days, wait until the potting soil is dry and then water, pay attention to maintain humidity, lack of water or stagnant water plants will yellow. If there is a shortage of water, it will be replenished, and stagnant water should be drained.
3. Improper fertilization, long-term lack of fertilizer or excessive fertilization will bring fertilizer damage, the leaves will be yellow, lack of fertilizer to supplement fertilizer, large amount of fertilizer watering dilution!
4. Iron supplementation, cyclamen iron deficiency leaves will also be yellow, use 500-1000 times of ferrous sulfate solution, let the surrounding root system fully absorb. It usually returns to normal in 2 to 3 weeks.
(4) How do you prune cyclamen?
Thick, long and some relatively thin branches, residual flowers, dead leaves to be removed in time, it is recommended to twist directly by hand, pinching the branches of cyclamen and rotating 2 circles will fall down naturally.
