How to plant lotus in winter

1. Winter planting method

1. Increase the temperature: If you decide to plant in winter, you first need to increase the temperature of the planting environment, preferably at around 20-30℃. If the temperature is low, its seeds will not germinate.

2. Water temperature control: The water temperature used for planting should be controlled well. The water temperature should be maintained at around 20-40°. If the water is too cold, the seeds will be frozen.

3. Start planting: prepare the water lily seeds and grind them into a small hole, then place them in warm water to soak. The temperature will rise at noon, and you need to change the water at this time. After waiting for about a week, its seeds will germinate.

4. Planting and maintenance: After planting, give it enough light. It is recommended to place it on a balcony or south windowsill. It should receive at least 7 hours of light every day. If there is too little light, artificial light will be needed.

2. Precautions

The temperature in winter is relatively low, and the water lily will enter a dormant state, so it is not very suitable to plant water lily in winter. The survival rate of planting in winter will be very low. The best time for planting is in spring, so it is best to choose spring for general home planting.
