Lilies are commonly grown in households. They are fragrant and colorful, and come in a variety of varieties. They look great whether planted in potted plants or cut flowers in vases, and they can also make the home filled with fragrance. How do you water and fertilize household lilies? 1. Selection of potting soilFor potted lilies, the pots must be breathable and water-permeable. As for the soil requirements, a loose, breathable medium without water accumulation is generally used. You can use garden soil, leaf mold, and river sand mixed in a ratio of 1:1:1. Appropriate organic base fertilizer can be placed at the bottom of the pot for planting. 2. Watering and fertilization managementNo fertilizer is needed for lilies for 3 to 4 weeks after planting. After the stems and leaves grow out, apply fertilizer in time. Fertilization is also a very important maintenance knowledge for lilies. To make lilies bloom continuously and produce gorgeous flowers, you must master the choice of fertilizer. Potted lilies must be fertilized frequently with thin fertilizers . If the amount of fertilizer is too large, fertilizer damage is likely to occur, such as leaf withering, flower fading and even branch death . In order to meet the lily's needs for fertilizer and water, choose a compound fertilizer with a balanced nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, put about twenty grains in each pot, and bury them around the potting soil. Lily is a bulbous plant, so you must be careful when watering it and avoid watering it too frequently. If you water it too much, the soil will always be moist, which can easily cause the lily bulb to rot and die. The watering of potted lilies must be gradually increased in line with the growth of the lilies. The water supply should be increased during the flowering period, when the demand for water is high. Watering should be reduced after flowering. Stop watering after the branches and stems above the ground wither. The lily will enter a dormant stage and you should stop fertilizing and watering. Move the lily to a well-ventilated and cool place. Repeat the above steps next year and the lily will still bloom beautiful flowers. |
