The more you water these 11 kinds of flowers in summer, the faster they die!

Fuchsia

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. After 30℃, fuchsia gradually enters a dormant period. At this time, it must be placed in a cool and ventilated place and stop fertilizing.

2. You can prune the fuchsia, leaving only 6 buds pointing upward on the branches, and cut off the rest.

3. If you want the fuchsia to spend the summer safely, you can also propagate the seedlings through cuttings. Small seedlings are more resistant to high temperatures and have a greater chance of survival.

Kalanchoe

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. When the temperature exceeds 30℃, the Kalanchoe will enter a dormant state and its growth will stop. Place it in a cool and ventilated room or on a north balcony.

2. Watering must be reduced, otherwise black rot will occur easily. Generally, use a toothpick to poke 2-3cm below the soil surface, and then water it when you find it is dry.

3. To avoid black rot, appropriate pruning can be done. Properly prune the old and yellow leaves of the Kalanchoe to avoid excess nutrient consumption, so that the Kalanchoe can spend the summer safely.

Cyclamen

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. When the temperature exceeds 30℃, cyclamen will completely enter a dormant period. The first thing to do is to prune it, cutting off all the leaves and flowers, leaving only 1-2 leaves.

2. Place the flower pot in a cool and ventilated place indoors, such as a room with a draft or a north balcony, and never place it in direct sunlight.

3. If you find that the soil in the pot is particularly dry, you can use the immersion method and just water it slightly.

Gloxinia

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. When the temperature is above 30℃, the growth of Gloxinia stagnates and it gradually enters a semi-dormant period. At this time, do not expose it to direct sunlight, just move it to a place indoors with good diffuse light.

2. Be careful when watering during the dormant period. Usually, touch the soil 2-3 cm away from the surface of the potting soil. Water it after the soil is completely dry. Otherwise, it will easily rot if water accumulates.

3. Before summer comes, you can use leaves to propagate a few seedlings to prevent the mother plant from dying!

Begonia

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. After 30℃, Begonia will enter a short dormant period due to the high temperature. Move it to a cool and ventilated place, and then trim off the withered flowers in time.

2. If the temperature at home is very high, you can use a small fan to blow it, or move it to an air-conditioned room to cool it down.

3. Watering must be reduced to about 1/3 of the previous amount. Be careful to avoid the leaves when spraying water to prevent them from rotting.

Clivia

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. When the temperature exceeds 30℃, Clivia will enter a semi-dormant period and will not grow as vigorously as in spring. At this time, it must be placed in a cool, ventilated place with scattered light indoors. Never expose it to direct sunlight, otherwise the leaves will be easily burned.

2. In summer, the temperature is high and the evaporation is large. It is enough to water once every 5-7 days. It is best to use weakly acidic rainwater or tap water and let it dry for 24 hours before use.

3. During the summer dormancy period, the growth of Clivia stops, so it is best not to apply fertilizer.

Schlumbergera

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. The suitable growth temperature of Christmas cactus is 15-25℃. Once it exceeds 30℃, it will enter a dormant period. At this time, be sure to avoid exposure to the sun and just place it in a place with good scattered light for maintenance.

2. When watering Christmas cactus in summer, try to wait until the sun sets and the temperature drops to 25℃ before watering.

3. Stop fertilizing during the dormant period. If it is not dormant, you can apply a little light fertilizer. Don't use the organic fertilizer that you have decomposed yourself, just buy some inorganic fertilizer.

Geranium

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. After the temperature reaches 30℃, geranium will enter dormancy. At this time, pay attention to shade and do not let the soil in the pot get hot. To be on the safe side, just place it in a place with good diffuse light indoors.

2. Make sure the soil in the pot is slightly dry. Water the roots directly and try to reduce spraying. If water accidentally gets on the leaves, it may easily cause the leaves to rot.

3. If the temperature continues to rise, or it is accidentally exposed to rain, you can use some thiophanate-methyl or carbendazim interchangeably, or you can use diluted potassium permanganate solution once a month to promote the resistance of geraniums.

hyacinth

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. When hyacinth enters dormancy, the leaves will gradually wither. Stop watering for 10 days. When all the leaves turn yellow, simply dig out the bulbs.

2. Soak the bulbs in the carbendazim solution for more than half an hour, then take them out and place them in a cool and ventilated place.

3. Wrap the bulbs with newspapers and store them in a cool and ventilated place indoors. Wait until autumn to take them out and plant them!

Nasturtium

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. When the temperature is above 35℃, the leaves of nasturtium cannot withstand the high temperature and will turn yellow. At this time, place it in a ventilated and cool place for maintenance.

2. Normally, just water the plant when the soil is completely dry. You can spray water on the leaves and around the pot in the morning and evening to ensure sufficient air humidity.

3. If you are really worried that the nasturtium will die during the summer, then collect the seeds in the summer and replant them in the fall.

Meat

How to care for it during the dormant period?

1. For spring-autumn and winter-type succulents, once the summer temperature is higher than 30°C, they will enter a dormant state. At this time, they must be avoided from rain and placed in a well-ventilated place indoors.

2. The normal watering time should be extended. It is enough to water it once every 10-15 days.
