Soil culture method of hyacinth

1. Selection of bulbs

In order to ensure the survival rate of the subsequent planting, try to choose bulbs that are healthy, undamaged on the surface, and heavy and full. Remove the outer skin and soak in the solution for disinfection for about 15 minutes. After taking it out, place it in a cool environment to dry naturally.

2. Culture Matrix

The substrate needs to be breathable, well-drained, and contain nutrients. Peat soil can be mixed with perlite to take both aspects into consideration.

3. Planting bulbs

Plant the bulbs in the potting soil, keep the loam height at 2 cm, the top one-third should be exposed from the potting soil, and the bottom part should be buried and compacted to prevent the stem from rotting due to excessive watering.

4. Post-maintenance

After planting, place it in a sunny place and ensure sufficient sunlight. Insufficient sunlight will lead to poor growth and development. If you feel that the extended part of the stem is too short, you can place it in a dark place for a few days to encourage the stem to grow longer, and then move it to a place with good light for maintenance. The temperature should be controlled at 5-10 degrees Celsius and not too low. And keep the soil in the pot moist.
