Farming methodstemperatureThe growth temperature requirements of Gloxinia are different in different seasons. From January to October, it is 18-25℃, and from October to January of the following year, it is 10-12℃. The suitable temperature can make the leaves grow lushly and the flowers bright. illuminationGloxinia prefers a semi-shaded, warm environment. During cultivation, attention should be paid to proper shading and avoid direct sunlight. It is best to absorb scattered light and make continuous adjustments based on actual growth conditions. WateringWatering should be moderate. Too much watering can easily cause tuber rot and yellow leaves. In the hot summer, the frequency of watering should be appropriately increased. Water mist should be sprayed around the plants frequently to maintain the environmental humidity. soilGloxinia prefers loose, fertile humus soil. Therefore, it is necessary to use humus-rich, loose, slightly acidic soil for cultivation. FertilizationGloxinia should be fertilized once a week from the time its leaves expand to before it blooms. It is best to use well-rotted, dilute organic liquid fertilizer, and apply dilute cake fertilizer water once every 10 days or so. After the flower buds are formed, it is necessary to increase the application of phosphorus fertilizer and also apply bone meal or calcium phosphate once more. PrecautionsAvoid getting leaves wetThe flowers and leaves of Gloxinia have fine hairs, which will easily rot once they get wet. So remember not to spray water on the flowers and leaves. It is best to use the immersion method to water them. Controlling the temperature during floweringDuring the flowering period, be careful to avoid rain and the temperature should not be too high, which can prolong the flowering period. Do not contaminate the leaves when applying fertilizerWhen applying fertilizer, be careful not to contaminate the leaves. After each application of fertilizer, spray clean water once to keep the leaves clean. But dry the leaves immediately after cleaning to prevent rot. |
