How to grow carnations in winter

How to grow carnations in winter

1. Light

Because it is a plant that prefers light, so in winter, we can put it in the sun when the sun comes out. If the sun does not come out, we can also use light to shine on it. Of course, it is also feasible without light.

2. Temperature

It has a certain tolerance to low temperatures, but if the temperature is below nine degrees Celsius, it will not grow as fast as we hope, so in winter we'd better use some method to raise the temperature. If this is not possible, we can also use a film to cover it, or send it directly to the greenhouse.

3. Moisture

Watering is still necessary, but we have to control the amount because it cannot accumulate water. Normally, it is best to adopt drip irrigation method, so that we can avoid the pain of water accumulation and the growth of plants will be satisfactory.

4. Soil

Its soil must be kept fertile, and the pot must be well chosen, with good ventilation and drainage conditions, so that it can be grown well.

5. Fertilization

Fertilization is also indispensable in winter. Generally speaking, we need to apply fertilizer every half a month. The choices of fertilizers are quite diverse. Some common dilute urea water or ash from burnt grass can provide nutrients. However, we must also pay attention to one thing, that is, we cannot apply too thick fertilizer to it.

6. Diseases and pests

Although pests and diseases may be greatly reduced in winter due to the influence of temperature, it does not mean that there are no pests and diseases at this time. At this time, it is best for us to take preventive measures in advance and use the necessary pesticides to eliminate pests and diseases. If the pests and diseases have already occurred due to failure to eliminate them, we can take measures to kill them. For example, we know that leaf spot disease will occur in winter. At this time, we must keep it dry, pay attention to drainage and ventilation, and use fungicides to treat it every week.
