Gladiolus planting method

1. Turn the soil

If you want gladiolus to grow well, you need to plant it in the ground. The soil must be loose and fertile, and the soil must be turned over and fertilized before planting. The fertilizer should mainly be farmyard manure such as pig manure and chicken manure.

2. Planting

Gladiolus prefers sunlight and is best planted in an environment without shading. Bury the bulb with the bud facing upwards in the soil, and then cover it with about 5-10 cm of soil so that the plant is not easy to fall over.

Points to note when planting gladiolus

1. The soil used for gladiolus planting should be fertile and breathable. The plant can grow better in an ambient temperature of 20-25℃. At the same time, it should be given sufficient sunlight so that the plant can grow better.

2. After the gladiolus is planted, the stems and leaves on the ground will become a ball when they are almost dry and yellow. After the plant becomes a ball, all the dry stems and leaves need to be cut off.
