Succulents don’t color?

Thirsty for half a month!

Water control is one of the steps to color succulents. Without enough water, the succulents will become less plump, their green color will decrease, and other colors will become apparent.

Specific operations:

You can water it once every 1 to 2 weeks, and continue 2 to 3 times.

Succulents also need to be covered in spring and cooled in autumn!

The greater the temperature difference, the easier it is for succulents to color. A flower lover once moved succulents outside in winter, and they turned red in just a few days. However, succulent plant novices please do not do this, and flower lovers in the north should also not do this!

Specific operations:

Generally, the temperature difference between noon and midnight is the largest. Therefore, if you want a large temperature difference, it is best to grow succulents outdoors.

Chrysanthemums don’t bloom?

Put it in a dark room!

Chrysanthemum is a short-day plant. It will only differentiate flower buds if the darkness time reaches more than 14 hours a day.

Specific operations:

1. The common practice now is to start blocking light at 15:00 in the afternoon and uncover it at 22:00 at night to allow ventilation.

2. Cover it again before the sun rises the next day, and uncover it after 9 am.

3. After 2 to 2.5 months, the chrysanthemum will bud and bloom.

4. In addition to chrysanthemums, Christmas cactus and Kalanchoe can also use this method~

Petunia not bursting out of the pot?

Pinch it hard!

If you want the marigold to bloom more, you have to be ruthless and pinch off the tips when it is still small! That is, pinch off the tender buds at the top!

Specific operations:

1. When the petunia seedlings grow to about 10 centimeters, it is time to start pinching the tops of the plants and pinch off the tender buds at the tops. See the picture below for the specific positions.

2. After pinching, new branches will emerge after a while. When the new branches grow bigger, you can pinch them for the second time. Generally, pinching 2 to 3 times will make the petunia bloom.

3. Don’t throw away the top buds you pinched off. Remove the bottom leaves and you can directly plant them.

Succulent plants always grow too tall?

Behead!

The reason why succulents grow too tall is that they do not get enough sunlight. If you allow succulents to grow too tall, the stems will become thinner and thinner, which is very detrimental to the growth of succulents. At this time, you have to ruthlessly cut off the heads of succulents!

Specific operations:

1. First select the part to be removed. Huahua suggests that you usually cut it off in half. If it is particularly overgrown, you can remove two-thirds.

2. If you want to use the overgrown stems to make old stumps, the cutting position can be higher.

3. Don’t throw away the cut head casually. After removing the leaves at the bottom, you can use it for cuttings. It will take about a week to take root.

Too few rose buds?

Pulling and pulling!

After the rose branches are pulled horizontally, the branches lose their apical dominance, and new buds and branches will grow from the buds on the original leaves.

Specific operations:

1. Use a rope or yarn to tie the branches 1, 2, and 3 as shown in the picture below, then hold the rope and gently pull it down until the branches are on the same level as the red line marked in the picture.

2. Fix the rope and wait for 1 to 2 months, the branches will be fixed by themselves. See the picture below for specific results.

3. After a while, you can see a lot of flower buds popping up~

Bougainvillea not blooming?

Damage to the roots!

If the bougainvillea doesn't bloom, you can use a shovel to cut the roots of the bougainvillea a few times to make some wounds, so that the bougainvillea will feel a sense of crisis and bloom and reproduce as soon as possible.

Margaret (grass flower) doesn’t grow well?

All hair shaved!

If it looks ugly and messy, the best way is to be ruthless and cut off all the branches and leaves on the top, allowing it to grow leaves again!

Specific operations:

1. Remove the tender branches and leaves on the top of the Margarite, leaving only the semi-lignified stems close to the soil.

2. After shaving, keep the soil moist, place it in a place with scattered light, apply thin fertilizer frequently, and after one month, it will be a big ball again!

3. This method is also applicable to other flowers.

Bulbs not sprouting?

Put it in the refrigerator!

Some bulbous or tuberous plants, such as hyacinths, tulips, peonies, etc., need to be treated at low temperatures in order to grow and bloom normally.

Specific operations:

Before planting bulbs in autumn and winter, adjust the temperature in the refrigerator's cold storage area to 5~9 degrees and put the bulbs in. It takes about 1~2 months.

Seeds not sprouting?

Rub the seed coat!

The shells of some seeds are very thick, which are neither water-permeable nor air-permeable, and they often cannot germinate. Therefore, before planting, you must first scratch the shells of the seeds and then soak them in warm water for 24 hours, such as lotus, water lily, canna, etc.

Cactus doesn’t sprout?

Use a needle!

Other people's cacti have already sprouted countless small balls, but yours has not changed at all. If you want your cactus to grow more balls, you have to be ruthless and prick it with a needle.

Specific operations:

1. Find the growth points at the top of the cactus, and then pierce these growth points with a needle, just 1 cm in. In fact, it is also to destroy the top advantage of the cactus.

2. Water again after 2 days. After the stimulation of needle pricking, the apical dominance is destroyed. After about half a month, small balls will grow on the cactus.

Layering does not grow roots?

Scratch the branches!

Before cuttings, many flower lovers would choose to use layering to propagate, but the flowers would never take root... This is because you did not scratch the branches!
