Flowerpot selection

If the basin is used, the tile basin is more appropriate, and the ventilation effect is better. Due to the shallow root system and slow growth of Rhododendron, a smaller basin can be selected, so that it will not be wasted when watering and is more conducive to growth. In terms of basin soil, acid soil with loose texture and good drainage shall be used

Watering

The root of Rhododendron is very thin and its absorption capacity is poor, and the water can reach the flower body only through the absorption of the root. Therefore, watering Rhododendron is a technical work. It is easy to rot the root if it is watered more, and it will dry the leaves if it is watered less

Generally speaking, we only need to keep the basin soil moist in early spring. In late spring and early summer, when it is ready to bloom, the water demand will increase greatly, so it should be watered a little more

In summer, the temperature is too high. In addition to watering, spray some water on the plants. In autumn, when the weather turns cool, you need to control the water appropriately and let the basin soil dry slightly. After it goes into dormancy in winter, it needs to reduce watering

Illumination

In the process of Rhododendron breeding, it is necessary to ensure sufficient light at any time, because the flowers can bloom well only when the light is sufficient. In hot summer, it is not allowed to take them out and expose them to the sun. The shielding work should be strengthened to prevent them from being damaged by the sun. In addition, the protection work should be properly done in the flowering season. The light barrier can be used for protection, and the flowers can not be exposed to the sun during the flowering period

Fertilization

Proper fertilization can make Rhododendron breeding grow stronger and faster. Like most indoor flower breeding, the fertilization principle of Rhododendron is to apply more fertilizer than thin fertilizer, that is, put less at a time and apply more times

Fertilize properly two to three times during the period when the old leaves turn green, bloom and after bloom. Do not fertilize during high temperature and hot weather. The breeding and fertilization of Rhododendron can use fishy water, rapeseed cake and other materials, which can only be used after they are rotten. If sick and weak branches are found, they should be cut off in time to prevent affecting the healthy growth of other branches

Suitable temperature

The most suitable temperature for Rhododendron growth is 15-25 ℃. Try to let it grow in this temperature range in spring or autumn. Pay attention to temperature control when the temperature is relatively high in summer. The maximum temperature should not exceed 32 ℃. When the temperature is relatively low in winter, it should be moved to the house in time and keep the temperature above 5 ℃

Pruning

Trim. Rhododendrons grow faster and grow very dense, which will lead to many internal branches and leaves can not see light and can not grow healthily. So we should trim it in time, which can not only make it more beautiful, but also make it healthier

Change Basin

Change the basin. The growth of Rhododendron needs to consume the nutrients in the soil. After a year or two, the nutrients in the soil will be absorbed by it. At this time, it should be replaced with new nutrient rich soil, so that it can continue to grow healthily

Great God summary

Many flower friends say that it is difficult to raise azaleas. It is easier to die when raising one pot, especially in summer. Then I dare not touch azaleas again. I have also raised them before and can't understand them. Now I finally understand. In fact, I can raise them as long as I remember 3 o'clock: don't bask in the sun at noon, find a way to humidify them and water them in time
