How to plant Guangdong evergreen seeds

1. Sowing time

Considering the temperature requirements for seed germination, it is generally more appropriate to sow in March and April when the temperature warms up in spring, and the temperature can also reach around 26 degrees.

2. Sowing Method

1. Choose a flowerpot with good air permeability and drainage, put the nutrient soil in it, sow the seeds, press lightly with your fingers or cover it with a thin layer of soil, spray water with a spray bottle, and spray water on the surface of the pot frequently when the soil is completely soaked to keep the soil moist. Place the flowerpot in a cool place to avoid direct sunlight that may cause rapid evaporation of water, and keep the temperature between 23°C and 29°C.

2. If the temperature is controlled properly, the seeds will germinate in less than 25 days. In summer, it should be placed in a semi-shaded place to shade it.

3. Post-maintenance

1. Moisture

After the seedlings grow stably, they enter the growth stage. When transplanting, replace the soil with loose, fertile, well-drained peat soil mixed with fine sand and slightly acidic soil. The water demand is relatively large at this time, so water should be given in time to ensure the moistness of the soil. When the temperature is too high in summer, you can spray it on the leaves. To avoid freezing in winter, you need to reduce water intake.

2. Temperature

Seedlings in the growth stage prefer a semi-shaded environment and cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. The temperature can be around 23 degrees Celsius at room temperature. The temperature in winter should be maintained at 5 to 8 degrees Celsius to ensure normal growth. Some special varieties must be above 18 degrees.

3. Topdressing

The season for adding fertilizer is mostly concentrated in the growing season of spring and autumn. Fertilizer should be applied once every half a month from May to October. If you find abnormalities in the leaves in winter, it may be a problem of insufficient fertilizer. You can just spray slow-release fertilizer.

4. Pruning

After planting, the plant is basically formed. If the shape does not look beautiful, you can trim it yourself. The cut branches can be inserted into water or the same soil and will grow new roots.
