Cultivation method of bowl lotus:

Seed treatment

The seed shell of bowl lotus is still relatively hard and dense, so it needs to be treated before sowing. Before soaking seeds, artificial breaking can be carried out

The method of breaking is very simple. One end of the lotus seed has a small tip, while the other end is round. You can wear the round end on the rough cement ground or with a knife. However, be careful not to hurt the kernel in the lotus seed or peel off the shell directly

Seed soaking and germination

After the lotus seed is broken, it can be soaked and sprouted. Put the seed with broken shell in warm water at about 20 ~ 40 ℃. Then change the water 2 to 3 times a day. Generally, there will be a sign of germination after 2 days, and there will be a centimeter of buds in about 5 days. At this time, the bowl lotus can be properly exposed to the sun to accelerate the growth of the bowl lotus

Bud and seedling transplanting stage

When transplanting, you can choose a pottery pot or plastic flowerpot without bottom hole, add pastoral soil or pollution-free pond mud into the pot, and soak it with water two weeks in advance without fertilization

When transplanting, you can press the fine roots of lotus seedlings into the mud, plant one plant in each pot, and add an appropriate amount of water after transplanting, so that the water does not submerge the lotus leaves

You can buy sand from the aquarium shop and sprinkle it on the mud a little bit in several times. When the water settles, sprinkle it again until the whole cylinder is evenly sprinkled. With sand, the water will soon become clear. After changing into clean water, you can raise a few small fish in the basin. The fish can eat the insects in the water, the excreta can fatten the flowers, and the fish is downstream of the flowers. It's beautiful and leisurely< span>
