Cultivation methods and precautions of blue sage

Cultivation methods and precautions of blue sage

1. Maintenance methods

1. Light: Blue sage is a light-loving plant and can be grown in the sun at ordinary times. Just be careful not to be exposed to excessive sunlight in summer.

2. Water: Keep the soil slightly moist at ordinary times, but avoid waterlogging. Generally, water it once every 2-3 days. Water evaporates quickly in summer, so you can water it once more in the morning or evening.

3. Fertilization: There should be enough base fertilizer when it is a seedling, and then apply compound fertilizer once a month during the growth period. Stop fertilizing in winter.

4. Soil: When preparing the soil for blue sage, it is best to mix garden soil, river sand and leaf mold. This type of soil has certain nutrients and also has good drainage.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: Generally speaking, reproduction is carried out by sowing, which can be carried out all year round, but it is best to do it in spring and summer, which is conducive to seed germination. Both peat soil and leaf mold can be used as the soil, but it needs to be disinfected in advance with 500 times solution of carbendazim. Just sow the seeds in the soil and keep them moist during germination.

2. Repotting: After the seedlings have been grown for a period of time, they need to be repotted. Before repotting, you need to prepare prepared soil. Be careful not to damage its roots when repotting. After planting, just water it thoroughly once.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Leaf spot: When this disease appears, the leaf edges will turn brown. Most of the time, it is caused by inappropriate moisture or unventilated environment. You can use carbendazim to spray once a week.

2. Wilting: Wilting is mostly caused by lack of water. Root rot caused by waterlogging can also cause wilting, so you should adjust water management in time according to your own situation.

IV. Other issues

1. Is it poisonous? Blue sage is non-toxic and can be grown with confidence. Growing several plants will be very stylish and beautiful.

2. Can it be grown in the bedroom: Blue sage can be grown in the bedroom. It has a small shape and can not only serve as a decoration, but also purify the indoor air and absorb some toxic gases.
