The care of chrysanthemum is actually not complicated. It is a highly adaptable short-day plant that usually blooms in autumn. If you want your chrysanthemums to grow vigorously and bloom abundantly, you just need to master the key points. So how can we grow chrysanthemums well? 1. Prune at the right time Chrysanthemums grow quickly, especially in spring and summer. When new branches grow out, prune them in time to encourage side buds to grow from the top. After the side buds grow to a certain height, cut off the top again to encourage branching. Through continuous pruning and topping, the increase of side buds can be promoted, laying a good foundation for autumn flowering. 2. Adequate lighting Chrysanthemums need plenty of sunlight. Whether it is the growing season or the flowering season, it should be placed in an environment with sufficient light. Adequate sunlight helps the branches grow healthily, avoids excessive growth, and promotes the differentiation of flower buds and the formation of flower buds. 3. Reasonable fertilization Chrysanthemums grow quickly and require balanced nutrients. During the growing season, multi-element fertilizers should be used and single nitrogen fertilizers should be avoided to prevent the branches from growing too fast and affecting the plant shape. Balanced nutrients contribute to the healthy development of the root system and the growth of strong branches. Apply multi-element fertilizer 2 to 3 times a month during the growing season. After entering autumn, switch to phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate, and apply it 2 to 3 times a month to promote the formation of flower buds and flowering. In addition to the above points, attention should also be paid to watering and soil selection. When watering, wait until the soil in the pot is half dry before watering thoroughly to keep the soil moderately moist. Choosing fertile and well-breathed soil will help the healthy growth of chrysanthemums.
