If you can’t do these things when growing flowers in summer, you might as well give them to someone else to grow!

Pruning

After entering summer, the growth rate of plants increases, and timely pruning can make the plants grow better.

For flowering plants, cut off the dead flowers in time to promote more side branches and more flowering.

The long branches formed due to insufficient light should be cut off in time and sufficient light should be provided.

Too dense branches are not conducive to plant ventilation and should be pruned in time.

Clean up the dry, aging and yellow leaves in time.

Watering plants more

The temperature is high and evaporation is fast in summer. For plants with large leaves, such as green ivy, arrowroot, and evergreen, as well as water-loving plants such as pennywort, you must water them more and keep the soil in the pots moist.

Use after tap water

In summer, the soil temperature in the flower pots will rise as the temperature rises. When watering directly with tap water, the cold tap water will strongly stimulate the root hairs of the root system, affecting the normal absorption of water by the roots, which can easily cause the leaves to wilt.

The correct way is to dry it in the sun for a while before using it.

Leaves without water droplets

When watering flowers in summer, do not get water droplets on the leaves. If the light is strong and the temperature is high, water droplets on the leaves can easily cause burns.

Do not expose to the sun

Ultraviolet rays are very strong in the summer. People and plants are afraid of the sun. When the light is strong, proper shade is needed.

In summer, you can move the flower pots to a place with scattered light indoors, and try not to place them on a south-facing balcony.

You can also install a sunshade net on the window to allow the flowers to grow in moisture.

Increase humidity

The air is dry in summer and is not suitable for plant growth, especially some plants that like moisture, such as the maidenhair fern and arrowroot. Everyone should try to find ways to increase the air humidity so that they can grow better. Here are some tips for you:

Method 1: Spray more water, pay attention to spraying, not spraying water;

Method 2: Turn on the humidifier, which makes people and plants comfortable;

Method three: place a basin of water next to the plant, the water will evaporate and bring humid air to the flowers!

Proper pinching of grass flowers

If you grow fuchsia, begonia, or herbaceous flowers such as chrysanthemums, when they grow to a certain height, you should pinch and top them in time to allow them to have more side branches and bloom more flowers!

Take preventive measures

When the temperature is high, diseases and pests are prone to occur. You can dilute the carbendazim and spray it on the flowers and trees to effectively prevent disease and pest infections.
