Cultivation methods and precautions of multi-headed chrysanthemum

1. Fertilization

If you want to fertilize it, it depends on the size of the plant and what kind of variety it is, and then you can control it appropriately. When September just arrives, the growth of chrysanthemum will enter a very vigorous period. At this time, you need to apply more fertilizer to it to meet its nutritional needs at this time. In addition, it is necessary to apply foliar fertilizer, basically once every 5 days, until its flower buds are the size of soybeans. Starting from the beginning of September, urea and other fertilizers should be mixed together in the first three days, and it should be sprayed with fertilizer in the evening. At the same time, some fertile soil should be added to the sprayer in early September until the plant has its first fork. This will allow it to root a second time faster.

2. Perform proper potting

If you are potting seedlings from cuttings, you will need a 10 cm pot. After that, you need to change the pot every time the seedlings start to sprout. Just increase the pot by one size. The last repotting should be done in late July or early August when the plant has taken shape.

3. Topping

During the growth process, in order to make its flowers more beautiful, it is generally necessary to pinch them. The pinching of multi-headed chrysanthemums is generally different from the cultivation method of other chrysanthemums. Usually after pinching, three small branches will grow out, from top to bottom, they are the heavenly branch, the earthly branch, and the human branch. The heavenly branch is generally the most vigorous, and the human branch is the weakest. The difference is not so big at the beginning, but it will get bigger and bigger later, which is not good for its balanced growth. Therefore, it is necessary to use the method of pinching, that is, to remove its germination point. In this way, the several side branches that sprout will be basically the same size, allowing it to develop more evenly, allowing the plant to grow more vigorously, and the flowers that bloom will be bigger and more beautiful.
