Planting time

This kind of ornamental onion is basically planted by sowing. The time is generally in September and October of the first year, so that it can sprout in the spring of the second year, but this method is not simple, because it is not easy to wait until it blooms, which may take five years. In addition to this method, you can also divide the ball, so that if you start dividing the ball in summer and autumn, you can basically blossom the next year

Key points of planting

Selection of soil

They require more fertile soil, and it is best to use soil culture, because hydroponic culture is easy to rot. Therefore, even soil culture should pay attention to the drainage capacity of soil. Once there is a problem in drainage, the whole plant is likely to rot

Light and temperature

Big pom poms prefer places with better sunshine rather than places with half shade and half sunshine. When growing, it's best to keep it at 15-25 ℃ and cool. In winter, although the weather is relatively cold, they are basically not afraid. They don't need too many ways to keep warm. They are still relatively frost resistant

Control of water and fertilizer

We all know that water and fertility need to be combined, and the time for better growth needs to be combined with soil loosening. It can be applied every 2-3 weeks, and it should be thinner. In case of high temperature, shading and water spraying should be carried out in time, which can reduce the discomfort of plants. Moreover, when the temperature is high, the aboveground part will not survive, and the underground part can be directly dug out and preserved. It's better to have a certain amount of air flowing through the storage location to prevent decay
