Cockscomb cultivation methods and precautions

Cockscomb cultivation methods and precautions

1. Water

Cockscomb has very strict requirements for water, and requires a lot of water during the growth period, so it is necessary to water it frequently. However, it is also a plant that is very afraid of waterlogging. While watering it frequently, you must also be careful not to water it too much, as this will cause root rot.

2. Lighting

It likes a warm environment, so during the growing period, it must be provided with sufficient light. If you grow it on the balcony at home, you should provide it with at least 4 hours of light every day. If there is insufficient light, it will affect its flowering, thus greatly reducing its ornamental value.

3. Fertilizer

As long as cockscomb is given enough base fertilizer when it is planted, it does not need any fertilizer during its growing period. It is sufficient to apply compound fertilizer 1-2 times before the flowering period, but the amount of nitrogen fertilizer must be strictly controlled, otherwise the plant will fall over due to excessive growth.

IV. Precautions

The soil you choose must be loose. If the drainage is poor and water accumulates, it will cause root rot. Be sure to water frequently during the hot summer to avoid wilting due to lack of water.
