How to grow carnations

1. Temperature

Carnations are not suitable for growing in conditions that are too cold or too hot. Flower lovers should keep the temperature between 19 and 21 degrees Celsius when growing them. If the temperature rises, you should temporarily move it indoors to avoid the leaves wilting due to high temperatures.

2. Lighting

Light plays a very important role in its growth. If the lighting in the breeding location is not good, it will easily cause poor growth. When breeding, there is no need to worry about it being injured by strong light. If there is sufficient light, it can also promote the differentiation of flower buds and bloom early.

3. Watering

The root system of carnations is relatively shallow, so don't water them too much when watering them. Just keep the soil moist. Also, you should pay attention to the frequency and amount of watering, as it is a plant that is very afraid of waterlogging. When growing flowers, flower lovers only need to water them thoroughly once and the water will last for two or three days.

4. Fertilization

During its growing period, it needs to be fertilized continuously. Because its growing period is relatively long, so when breeding it normally, try to fertilize it according to the actual amount. Fertilizer can be either farmyard manure or cake fertilizer. The fertilization time is generally about ten days per application. Before it blooms, you need to increase the amount of fertilizer to ensure that it has sufficient nutrients for flower bud differentiation.
