African violets breeding methods and precautions

African violets are not easy to grow because they are a rather delicate flower. They are afraid of heat in summer and cold in winter, and they have high requirements for water and light, so they are difficult to maintain.

How to grow African violets

1. Lighting

Although African violets are very shade-tolerant, it does not mean that the plant does not need light to grow. If there is insufficient light during maintenance, the plant will have a delayed flowering period and produce fewer flowers.

2. Fertilization

If African violets want to bloom, they need to consume a lot of nutrients, so during its growing season, you can apply fertilizer once every 15-20 days, which can promote the plant to bloom more.

3. Watering

African violets are plants that like moisture, but watering should not be too frequent, otherwise water accumulation and root rot may occur, and in severe cases, the stems and leaves may rot.

4. Temperature

The suitable temperature for the growth of African violets is 12-24℃. Too high or too low temperature is not conducive to its growth. It can withstand the lowest temperature of 10℃ in winter and has poor cold resistance.

African violets care precautions

When caring for African violets, be sure not to pour water on the leaves of the plant, because there is hair on them and water will not evaporate easily on them. If ventilation is not good, it will cause leaf rot.
