How to promote asparagus fern seeding

Generally speaking, large asparagus fern that has grown for more than 3 years can produce seeds. If this type of asparagus fern that could have produced seeds does not produce seeds at that time, then the management of it after it enters the flowering period should pay attention to the following points:

Using pots: If you want the potted asparagus fern to grow strong, you should use a larger pot to expand the nutritional area, which is conducive to the healthy growth of the asparagus fern. At the same time, set up a support to prevent the asparagus fern from falling over.

Fertilizer and water management: Apply fertilizer in time in spring to asparagus fern, prevent heatstroke and cool down. After flowering, control water and fertilizer appropriately, strengthen ventilation, prevent rain and dust, and prevent flowers from falling. Excessive water and fertilizer application during the young fruit stage can also cause the fruit to fall easily. After the fruit has grown, strengthen fertilizer and water management. Watering should be moderate, not too much or too little to prevent damage to its root system. Liquid fertilizer can be used for top dressing, but be careful not to use too high a concentration and not to use too long an interval between applications.

Temperature and light: It is best to let asparagus fern receive scattered sunlight. If asparagus fern is exposed to the scorching sun, it will be very harmful to its seed production. It is best to keep the temperature at around 20℃. If it does not meet the requirements, try to adjust it. In winter, keep the room temperature at 18 degrees Celsius and expose it to more sunlight to obtain more seeds.

Ventilation: Keeping a breeze in the cultivation environment can enhance the assimilation of asparagus fern. Otherwise, it will be detrimental to the seeding of asparagus fern. The air humidity should be increased, and water can be sprayed around the asparagus fern cultivation area as appropriate.
