How to grow freesia in autumn

1. Breeding conditions

1. Soil: It prefers a nutritious and water-permeable substrate.

2. Light: When the first leaf grows during the plant cultivation process, appropriate shading should be provided to lower the overall growth environment temperature. When 4-6 leaves grow, it is necessary to ensure more than 10 hours of sunlight per day. Appropriate shading should be provided when the sunlight is strong in summer.

3. Watering: Water as appropriate. It is not very drought-resistant so the growing environment must maintain a certain degree of humidity, but water cannot accumulate. If water accumulates, it may cause root rot or leaf discoloration.

4. Fertilization: In autumn, there will be a period of time when the leaves fall a lot. At this time, a large amount of fertilizer is needed to ensure that its nutrients are not lost, and fertilizer should also be applied in time when the buds are forming in spring.

2. Breeding Methods

1. Cuttings: Usually carried out in spring from April to May, cut small plants from the roots of the plants, put them in a cool place to dry, and then dip them in a small amount of wood ash and plant them in plain sand.

2. Division: It is usually carried out in March and April. Sow it in a flowerpot, water it and place it in a shady place to keep it moist. Under the condition of 25℃-30℃, it will germinate in about 25 days.

3. Notes

When freesia develops to 4 leaves, the growth temperature should be controlled at around 13℃-14℃, which can promote leaf growth. When the flowers first appear, the temperature should be controlled at 10℃-25℃, which can promote flowering. After the flowers bloom, the temperature can be lowered to 15℃, which can prolong the flowering period.
