Chapter 306 The brilliance of flowers depends entirely on the nourishment of water

Many flower lovers "fail to plant flowers with their heart", and one of the reasons is improper watering.Therefore, scientific watering is the key to the success of growing flowers.

Watering the flowers should be done in the following ways:

1. Rope suction watering method

When planting or moving flowers, bury a rope with good water absorption at the bottom of the flowerpot, so that one end of the rope spreads out at the bottom of the flowerpot, and the other end protrudes from the drainage hole and is placed in the pad under the flowerpot.When the pot soil is dry, just pour water into the potential pot, and use the capillary action, the water will be automatically brought into the pot by the rope.

2. Water from the top of the pot
The operation is to spray water directly on the branches, leaves and crowns of flowers.This watering method should not be carried out on cloudy days, because watering from above the flower pot, if there is not enough sunlight to dry the water on the leaves, then the crown of the flower will become wet and the soil surface will become moldy.

3. Pour the water into the pot with the flower pot
This method should not be used alone for a long time. The flower only absorbs water from the pot, which will cause the fertilizer and salt in the soil to rise and accumulate on the soil surface and the edge of the flower pot, which will damage the nearby flower stems and leaves.Therefore, it is best to use the method of watering from the top of the flowerpot in conjunction with this watering method.

4. Soak the pot thoroughly in a bucket of lukewarm water
This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, but most flowers will have additional benefits when used occasionally.Be sure to allow the water in the bucket to cover the soil surface of the pot with this method.

No matter which method is used to water indoor flowers, it must be watered thoroughly, that is, "permeable".This will allow the soil deep in the pot and all the flower roots to get moisture.

In cities, tap water is often used for watering flowers.However, the content of bleaching powder and chemicals in tap water is relatively high, so it should be stored for a day or two before being used for watering.In addition, if you put a few tablets of vitamin C in tap water, you can eliminate chlorine in the water. Generally, add one tablet to a pot of water and leave it for half a day to water the flowers.
