Sowing Plum blossoms need to be watered before planting to keep the soil moist and avoid washing away the seeds after watering. When sowing, sow the germinated seeds in the prepared soil. Cover with a layer of soil to fix the seeds. During this period, pay attention to maintaining sufficient light and control the temperature at around 20℃. Cultivation methods and precautions of plum blossomsChoose potting soilPlum blossoms can be planted in pots , but plastic and porcelain pots are generally not recommended. It is best to use ceramic or tile pots with good air permeability. The soil should be loose, fertile and well-ventilated. Humus, coal slag and garden soil can be mixed in a ratio of 3:3:4. FertilizationIf you want the plum blossoms to grow luxuriantly, it is best to mix some compound fertilizer into the soil as base fertilizer. When the branches and leaves of the plum blossoms sprout, apply organic liquid fertilizer 1-2 times a month. In late summer and early autumn, apply decomposed cake fertilizer water once to promote the growth of flower buds. In addition, it is better to apply light fertilizer rather than thick fertilizer. WateringNormally, watering should be done after the soil is dry, and water thoroughly at one time. The water temperature should not be too cold. In addition, when the flower buds differentiate in June and July, watering should be done after the leaves of the plum blossoms curl up, so that the plum blossoms can bloom better. Light and temperaturePlum blossoms like light, so when growing them in pots, you must ensure that they receive sufficient light . Except for the summer when they need to be properly shaded, it is best to keep them in full sunlight in other seasons.
