BasinIf you are sowing sunflowers, the step of potting can be skipped. Flower lovers can also directly purchase sunflower seedlings for sowing. To learn more about sowing instructions, read the article How to grow ornamental sunflowers. The editor is lazy and will not elaborate here. . . temperatureSunflowers have a strong adaptability to temperature and prefer warm environments, but they can also tolerate low temperatures. As long as the temperature is not lower than 10 °C, they can grow healthily. The most suitable temperature for growth is 18~30 ℃ during the day and 10~18 ℃ at night. The temperature difference between day and night is maintained at 8~10 ℃, which is conducive to the growth of stems and leaves. Within the suitable temperature range, the higher the temperature, the faster the plant grows; when the temperature is low, the plant grows slowly, affecting flowering. When the temperature is too high, above 25 ℃, pay attention to ventilation, and when it is below 13 ℃, heat and keep warm. illuminationSunflowers are very sensitive to light and need plenty of it. Only with sufficient sunlight can the plants grow strong and have bright and shiny flowers. If there are continuous rainy days, the leaves will droop and turn yellow-green, and the flower disks will be of uneven sizes. WateringSunflower has a well-developed root system and is drought-tolerant but not drought-tolerant. From sowing to budding, a dry environment is conducive to the growth and development of its root system, but as the light intensity increases, water evaporation accelerates and the plant needs nutrients to bloom and bear fruit. Especially during the flowering season, replenishing water can ensure the quality of the flowers. Especially when the pot is small and the seeds are large, it is necessary to add water in time and master the principle of "alternating dry and wet". FertilizationSunflowers like fertilizer and should be fertilized once every 7 to 10 days during the growing season. Nitrogen fertilizer is mainly used during the sunflower seedling stage to promote strong branches and leaves. After buds appear, add appropriate amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote bud development and facilitate flowering. When the plant's branches and leaves become weak and the leaves turn yellow, add fertilizer in time, otherwise the ornamental sunflower will lose its value. pruneThe main attraction of sunflowers is the large flowers on the main trunk, so the excess side buds should be pruned in time during the growing season. But if you want it to bloom more, you can pinch the top of the plant during the seedling stage to promote branching, and the flowers will bloom. If you choose tall plants, you can spray 89 solution on the leaves 20 days after germination to control their growth height. Plants that grow too tall can be supported by pillars to prevent them from falling over. |
