How to grow blue flax?

Habits of Blue Flax

First, let’s understand the growth habits of blue flax. Blue flax mainly grows in areas with dry climates, and sufficient sunlight allows it to grow rapidly. At the same time, in order to avoid the impact of waterlogging, blue flax generally grows on higher hills, as if standing on a high place to show her beauty.

Planting method

Wash and soak the seeds of blue flax, then put them in fine sand, mix the two and place them on the ground to dry. This method can make the seeds grow better in the soil. After the seeds are dried, sow them in the soil for cultivating seedlings, cover the surface of the seeds with fine sand, and moisten them. After the seeds germinate, move the seedlings to normal potting soil for growth and development. During this process, the underdeveloped seedlings can be removed.

During the planting period, weeds will usually grow together. At this time, you should pay attention to the growth of the grass, pull it out regularly, and apply fertilizer in small amounts several times during the period.

Management methods

The growth of blue flax cannot be separated from water and fertilizer. In the early stage, it is necessary to ensure the nutrients required for growth, and fertilize and water regularly. After the seedlings grow, reduce the amount of fertilizer, but still maintain an appropriate amount of water irrigation. The blue flax that has grown into full shape needs to have its flower center removed manually so that it can branch and grow better. The blue flax after branching also needs to be pinched. After pinching twice, the blue flax can bloom normally, and the blue flax will appear particularly lush at this time.
