How to care for the picked lotus

How to care for the picked lotus

1. Pruning

The picked lotus needs to be trimmed, cutting its bottom diagonally. And every time you change the water, you should cut off the last incision, which will help it absorb nutrients. When picking lotus flowers, it is best to pick up a few leaves to facilitate photosynthesis.

2. Change water

The cut lotus is different from the planted lotus. It consumes more water, so the water must be changed every day. The water that is replaced must be air-dried, because the freshly drawn tap water contains chlorine. Air-drying is to release the chlorine in the water, so that the water will not harm the plants.

3. Nutrients

As soon as the lotus is cut, nutrients begin to be lost, so you need to add nutrient solution every time you change the water. You don't need too much, just a few drops will meet the needs.

IV. Precautions

If the cut lotus has leaves, the leaves must not be soaked in water, otherwise the leaves of the cut plant will rot. If the lotus is cut in the summer, in addition to changing the water frequently, you should also put a few ice cubes in the water. This is to ensure that the water does not become too hot. The water in the bottle should be connected to the bottle mouth to help stabilize the lotus.

If the lotus is not in good condition, you can plug the pores with soil at the cut, and then put it into light salt water. It will slowly recover and will not wither in about five days.
