How to take care of the newly bought morning glory

1. How to deal with newly bought morning glory

When you first buy the morning glory, it may be in the state of a small seedling. Don't rush to repot the seedlings, as the roots may not have grown well yet. First grow it in a warm and humid environment for a while to adapt to the environment. When it grows more than three true leaves, the roots are almost grown and you can repot it. If it is relatively large, you can first check whether the branches and leaves are dry or yellow, trim off the bad leaves, and then repot.

2. How to grow the newly bought morning glory

1. Soil: When repotting the seedlings, it is best to apply a thin layer of fertilizer in the pot. It is best not to remove all the soil. If the original soil is not good enough, you can remove some of it appropriately, being careful not to damage the roots, and fill the other places with loose soil. It is best to use clay pots with good air permeability for flower pots, and sandy loam with good air permeability and drainage is best.

2. Environment: When you first buy morning glory, don’t give it too strong sunlight. It’s best to give it a relatively warm and humid place with gentle sunlight to let it adapt to the new environment. It is best if the daily average temperature is around 20℃ and the air humidity is not too low, and spray it with water appropriately.

3. Watering: You don’t need to water too much when the plant is adapting to the environment, just water it every 4 to 6 days on average. Just don’t let the soil dry out. After a period of time, when there are signs of growth, you can water it normally, and water it when the soil is dry.

4. Fertilization: When you change the pot, you can use some well-rotted thin fertilizer in the pot. Be careful not to apply too much fertilizer, as it may burn its roots. And be sure not to let fertilizer or water touch its leaves, as this may easily burn the leaves. After one month, you can fertilize normally.

5. Pinching: When its branches grow 3-4 leaves, vines will begin to grow in the center, and this is when we need to pinch it. You can pinch the top of the vine every time it grows, and apply appropriate fertilizer after pinching and shaping, otherwise it may cause it to grow slowly.
