How to care for potted chrysanthemum

1. Maintenance methods

1. Water

When growing potted chrysanthemums, try to choose a larger flowerpot so that the chrysanthemums can grow freely. To ensure the humidity of the potting soil, watering is best completed before noon, so that their leaves can enter a dry state when night comes. Therefore, try to water when the potting soil is completely dry. However, don't simply water less, otherwise the medallion chrysanthemum will bloom earlier, which will be detrimental to its overall branches, flowers and leaves.

2. Fertilization

When fertilizing potted chrysanthemums, you should pay attention to the timing of fertilization. Try to fertilize once every half a month to prevent the flowers from losing precious nutrients due to excess fertilizer. Therefore, you should leave room when applying fertilizer and control the amount.

3. Temperature and light

This flower does not have very strict requirements for temperature and light, and can generally survive as long as the temperature and light conditions are moderate. When planting potted chrysanthemums, it should be noted that the flowers have very different temperature requirements during the day and at night, and a larger temperature difference is needed. However, the temperature in winter should not be too low, otherwise they will easily freeze to death. They also like sunshine very much, and only in the sunshine can the flowers bloom brilliantly.

2. Precautions

When growing potted chrysanthemums, you must do a good job of preventing leaf spot disease. Leaf spot disease is an invisible killer that can kill chrysanthemums. At this time, you can choose to use a spray bottle to spray some medicine on their branches and leaves. In addition, you also need to guard against pests such as red spiders and aphids that have quite lethal effects. We can choose some spray-type drugs that can kill insects in seconds.

In addition, it is necessary to trim the medallion chrysanthemums in time after the flowering period ends each year to prevent nutritional imbalance of the medallion chrysanthemums and ensure that they bloom more beautifully in the following year. In addition, after the winter, since it is cold outside, they should be placed in a warm place.
