Planting methodChoose good varietiesIt is best to choose ornamental varieties such as Azolla, Little Fairy, and Table Lotus. These varieties have small plant shapes, many flowers, and bright colors, and are already cultivated. If you are using seed lotus roots for planting, you should choose lotus root seeds that are not damaged, are growing well, and have complete neck buds. Select containerThe choice of flower pots is very particular. Usually, flower pots with a diameter between 30 and 60 cm and a height of no more than 50 cm are selected. Soil requirementsThe best soil for growing lotus is rich in humus, usually lake mud. You can also mix garden soil, loess and sand in a ratio of 4:3:3. Never use sewage sludge. Flexible planting timeDue to the vast territory of our country, there is a large difference between the north and south latitudes. Therefore, when choosing the planting time, you must also adapt to local conditions. Near the Yangtze River basin, it is best to plant around the Qingming Festival. When in the north at higher latitudes, the time should be postponed to late April, and cultivation can begin when the temperature rises to around 15 degrees. Cultivation methodsLay the seed lotus root flat or tilt the top downward at an angle of 20 to 50 degrees, and bury the seed lotus root in the soil along the inner wall of the container. Make sure the tail end is exposed outside the mud. Only one seed lotus root can be placed in a flowerpot. WateringDo not water too much in the early stage of lotus growth, just keep the water depth at 3 to 5 cm. As the temperature continues to rise, the water depth can be maintained at 16 cm after the lotus emerges from the water. In winter, when the lotus enters a dormant period, it is sufficient to keep the water shallow and there is no need to add water frequently. Never underestimate the management link, the success of the lotus depends entirely on it! |
