Methods of promoting cactus flowering
To promote the flowering of cactus, we should pay attention to the following aspects during breeding:
Illumination temperature: Cactus requires sufficient sunshine. Cactus is often placed indoors for a long time. Without sunshine, it will not bloom. Cactus needs to live in warmer environmental conditions. If the ambient temperature is less than 20 degrees, it can't bloom p>
Watering: Cactus likes a dry living environment. Don't water more. Don't make the basin soil too wet, but rather dry rather than wet. Especially in winter and summer dormancy, watering should be controlled p>
Fertilization: Although cactus is resistant to barren and drought, it is not easy to blossom under the condition of drought and lack of fertilizer. Therefore, proper water and fertilizer should be given in cultivation, and thin and rotten cake fertilizer should be applied every 10 days to half a month in the growing season. Fertilization should not be excessive, which will also lead to non flowering p>
Small environment: pay attention to creating a local environment with suitable temperature and high humidity for the cactus. For example, make a closed shed with plastic film on the windowsill and place the cactus in it for maintenance. It not only grows faster, but also has bright color and is easier to blossom p>
Breeding experience of promoting the flowering of cactus
Put the cactus flower pot on the balcony with sufficient sunshine and air circulation. Cover it with plastic shed before frost every year to survive the winter safely and avoid freezing injury. After the Spring Festival and before the Tomb Sweeping Day, because the ball has big thorns, it is difficult to change the basin. Remove the old soil and replace it with chicken manure by 15%; Bean cake 10%, aged lime 10%, plant ash 5%, sawdust 5%, coarse sand or honeycomb cinder 15%, garden soil 40%. During the growth period, the fertilizer should be increased at the right time. Soybean cake liquid and fishy fat water should be used as top dressing, plus 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate spray or phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. p>
