How to grow flowers?

Growing flowers can improve one's character and temperament. There are many people who like to grow flowers, but many people do not know how to grow flowers, so they are not good at it. How to plant flowers specifically? Let’s learn more about it below.

1. Soil

It is recommended for beginners to use pots with good air permeability. Do not use tall pots. Try to use shorter pots of appropriate size, such as terracotta pots or clay pots. Prepare the soil so that it is breathable and water-permeable, so that the roots will not be stagnant or rotten. Therefore, it is best to add some river sand and some water-permeable perlite to the soil to increase the air and water permeability of the soil.

2. Buy seeds

When buying seeds, if you see a guarantee that they will germinate but you will get a refund if they don’t, it is usually a scam. Seeds all have a germination rate, and it is impossible to guarantee 100% germination. It is best to read the negative reviews and follow-up reviews before buying. Don’t buy seeds that are too cheap. Those that contain thousands of seeds for just one or two dollars are usually fake.

3. Lighting

No matter what kind of flower it is, it cannot live without light. All things grow with the help of the sun. Give flowering flowers more light. The longer the light time, the better. In the hot summer noon, shade it from the light or place it in a place with scattered light. For most foliage plants, just place them in a bright or well-ventilated place with scattered light.

4. Reasonable watering

Plants have different habits and different water requirements. Generally, there are plants that like water and plants that like dryness. For plants that like water, we generally water them thoroughly in time when the soil surface is dry, so there will be no problems. If it is a plant that likes drought, we only need to wait until the soil in the pot is almost dry before watering it thoroughly.

5. Suitable fertilizer

For flowering plants, you can consider high-phosphorus fertilizers when choosing fertilizers. Phosphorus fertilizers can promote flowering, but you cannot simply use phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. For plants that bloom all year round, choose those with high content of phosphorus and potassium, and also without lack of other elements, such as Huaduoduo No. 2. Adding multi-element fertilizer after it blooms can make it grow quickly.

6. Ensure ventilation

If the indoor environment is not ventilated, root rot is likely to occur after watering. If there is insufficient indoor light, excessive watering will also cause root rot. If the potting soil does not dry out for a long time, we can adjust the plant's light-loving properties according to its properties. For example, if it likes a semi-shaded environment, we only need to give it two or three hours of light a day. If it is a light-loving plant, you must put it in a place where it can get the most sunlight all year round. The more sunlight it gets, the better it will grow.

That’s it
