1. Cultivation methods and precautions of gentian flower

Soil: loose and fertile soil should be selected when cultivating gentian flower. It is best to have strong air permeability and rich in humus. It can also be mixed with some animal manure to increase the organic content in the soil and prevent soil hardening

Light: gentian flower likes light and is suitable to be maintained in an environment with sufficient light. If the light is insufficient, it will lead to insufficient photosynthesis, and then can not synthesize enough nutrients, resulting in poor plant growth and affecting the later flowering. In addition, when the sun is too strong in summer, you need to shade it to avoid being burned

Watering: gentian flower likes humidity but is not resistant to waterlogging. The amount of watering needs to be controlled in the process of breeding. Keep the soil moist without ponding in the basin soil

Fertilization: gentian flower does not have a high demand for fertilizer. It only needs to apply some farm fertilizer to the basin soil at the beginning of cultivation. In the later growth process, only apply some organic fertilizer before it blooms

Disease control: common diseases of gentian flower include spot blight and white silk disease. In daily maintenance, Bordeaux liquid can be sprayed to prevent the occurrence of diseases. If it is already ill, you can spray Carbendazim and chlorothalonil
