Fuchsia growing conditionsFuchsia prefers a cool, humid and sunny environment. It is not resistant to high temperature, strong sunlight and waterlogging. It grows slowly when the summer temperature is above 30 degrees, and withers and dies in large numbers at 35 degrees. It is susceptible to frost damage when the winter temperature is below 5 degrees. It is suitable for planting in fertile, loose, humus-rich, well-drained slightly acidic soil. How to grow fuchsiaFuchsia cannot tolerate strong light and is usually kept in a semi-shaded place. The suitable temperature for its growth is 10-28 degrees Celsius. Watering should be done when the soil is dry and then wet. After the soil is completely dry, water it thoroughly, but no water accumulation should occur. Spray water to keep it moist. Apply thin fertilizer every 15 days or so during the growing season, and apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer before flowering. Provide loose, breathable, well-drained, nutrient-rich acidic soil. Watering FuchsiaWhen watering fuchsia, there need to be certain methods. First of all, you need to water it according to weather changes and seasons. In spring and autumn, the temperature and humidity are better, so you can water it appropriately and just make the soil in the pot slightly moist. In summer, the temperature is higher, so you need to increase the amount of water. In winter, the temperature is lower, so you need to reduce watering to prevent frostbite. Fertilization of FuchsiaDuring the spring growing season of fuchsia, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied once every half month. It enters the peak growing season in May and needs a combination of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once every six months. No fertilizer is needed in the summer, two times of scale fertilizer is needed in September, and fertilization should be stopped in winter. Fuchsia Disease and Pest ControlFuchsia often has insect pests. If aphids and red spiders appear, you can use specific malathion solution, chlorpyrifos solution, and diazinon solution to spray them. If whiteflies appear, you should spray specific oxydemeton-methyl or mefenacet solution in time, spray once a week, and spray about three or four times. How to grow fuchsia at homeFuchsia is best grown in an environment of 15-25 degrees, not lower than 5 degrees. Control the amount of watering during the growth period to keep the potting soil dry and wet. The light should not be too strong, and it should not be placed under the light for a long time. The planting soil can be prepared by mixing sand and humus. Matters Needing Attention in the Maintenance of FuchsiaDuring the period of vigorous growth of fuchsia, fertilizer should be applied regularly. Do not apply fertilizer whenever you remember to do so. Once every 7-10 days is enough. When the temperature is high, the amount of watering should be controlled. Do not water frequently to avoid water accumulation. |
