Delphinium cultivation tips and precautions

1. Lighting

It needs light, so you should let it bask in the sun at ordinary times, and illuminate it with lights in October, so that it will bloom earlier.

2. Watering

There are also requirements for watering. It needs to be kept dry and wet. If it is in the flowering season, you can water it more.

3. Fertilization

When repotting, you need to apply some fertilizer, such as dry manure. Then it depends on the growth situation. It is enough to apply cake fertilizer water once to three times a month. Nitrogen fertilizer can be applied before flowering, but more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers must be applied after flowering, and water can be applied moderately when fertilizing.

After sowing it, what we need to do is keep the soil moist. It is best to cover it with some grass. Then we can wait for the seedlings to grow out and slowly remove the covering.
