How to grow morning glory

How to grow morning glory

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Morning glory likes warmth. Specifically, it can be maintained between eighteen and twenty-three degrees. It has good high temperature resistance, so you generally don't need to pay attention to it in summer. However, on the contrary, its cold resistance is not very good, so you need to pay attention to keeping warm in winter, preferably at around ten degrees.

2. Light: Good light conditions will make it grow vigorously and bloom well. Therefore, it is best to have sufficient light. However, it has a certain shade tolerance and can be placed in semi-shaded areas. But it can't be completely dark.

3. Watering: Morning glory is relatively drought-resistant and also has a certain degree of waterlogging resistance. Although it has strong adaptability to water, it is best to provide sufficient water during the growth period to ensure its growth.

4. Soil: Morning glory has two main requirements. One is fertility, and the other is good air permeability, that is, looseness. It has low requirements for pH and has good salt and alkali resistance. Moreover, since it is resistant to waterlogging, it does not require high drainage.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Pruning: The first step is to pinch the top of the tree. When the plant grows three or four leaves, it needs to be topped off. After this time, you will need to pick it again. After each picking, it is necessary to apply fertilizer in time. In addition, if it is a potted plant placed at home for viewing, it needs to be trimmed according to its shape.

2. Reproduction: It mainly uses the method of sowing. After collecting the seeds, you can store them in a cool, ventilated place. It is better to sow in spring and autumn because the temperature is suitable. Soak the seeds for a whole day before sowing to increase the germination rate. Generally speaking, it is better to use the on-demand method. After sowing, ensure the temperature is between 20 and 25 degrees.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: The main disease that harms morning glory is "rust". It is caused by a fungus. This disease can cause poor growth or symptoms such as leaf and flower drop. It can be prevented by using fenacet.

2. Pests: There may be snails, red spiders, etc. Snails can be caught manually, but red spider mites generally need to be sprayed with pesticides.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: It is a poisonous plant, and its roots, stems, leaves and flowers are all toxic to a certain extent.

2. Flower language: There are many flower languages, for example, "love", "calmness", "illusion", etc.
