1、 Slow seedling time

The slow seedling time of camellia is uncertain, which is related to the seedling size, region and temperature. Saplings with flower buds can survive slowly in about a week, and toothpick seedlings need half a month. The slow seedling time of Suqian seedlings is long, generally about 1 month. The temperature is low in winter, which may take 2 months

2、 Slow seedling maintenance

1. Basin soil: mixed with garden soil, river sand and peat soil, with the proportion of 2:2:1. Garden soil is a conventional soil. River sand increases drainage, and peat trees are slightly acidic. In addition, peat trees should not be more than river sand, otherwise it will affect drainage

2. Light: put the flowers and seedlings in a cool and ventilated place. Don't expose them to the sun. The slow seedling stage cannot accept sunlight, and transpiration will consume too much water. Moreover, Camellia likes half shade. After slow seedling, it is not suitable for long-time light

3. Watering: it is not suitable to water in the slow seedling stage, but the air humidity should be maintained. Usually sprinkle water on the ground, but you can't spray water on the leaves. In addition, the bottom of the flowerpot can be soaked with water, but do not make the pot soil contact with water

4. Fertilization: fertilization is not suitable in slow seedling stage. At this time, fertilizer will not provide nutrients, but may kill flowers and seedlings. After the slow seedling, you can add a little nutrient solution, and the concentration should not be too high, so as not to burn the root
