How to grow canna in spring

1. Increase lighting

Canna is a sun-loving plant. The greater and more abundant the sunlight is, the better its growth will be. Therefore, during its growth period, it is necessary to ensure sufficient light. The sunlight in early spring is mild and the plant can receive sunlight all day long. After it is fixed in a position, try to move it as little as possible. The sunlight in late spring will gradually become stronger, and you will need to put a sunshade on it to provide some shade when the sunlight is strong. The daily light exposure during the growing period should not be less than 5 hours.

2. Water more

Spring is its growing season, and flower buds will slowly begin to grow. At this time, it has a greater demand for water and needs to be watered once a day. If the temperature is relatively high, you should also spray water on the surrounding environment and its leaves to ensure humidity and prevent the branches and leaves from drying out. The temperature difference in spring is quite large, and the water temperature should be close to the breeding temperature. Too large a difference will be harmful to the growth of the plants.

3. Adjust the temperature

It likes warmth and is not frost-resistant, so the temperature of the growing environment must be ensured. The climate in spring is changeable, so avoid outdoor maintenance before the climate stabilizes. Even if you take preventive measures, you may still get frostbite. The most suitable ambient temperature for indoor maintenance is 18 degrees, and the maximum should not exceed 25 degrees.

4. Add nutrients

In addition to the above points, the key points of plant care in spring also need to pay attention to the supply of nutrients. Because spring is the growing season, fertilizer consumption is relatively high, and nutrients need to be increased to meet its growth needs. Fertilizers should be nutrient-rich compound fertilizers or high-nitrogen fertilizers, and the frequency of use should be two to three times a month.
