A secret base for collecting flowers in the flower market

If you often go to the flower market, you will find that there is a garbage can or box at the door of each flower shop, and the most often discarded one in it is Anthurium andraeanum

Of course, the pattern of flower markets in each place is different. Some flower markets will prepare special garbage cans for each flower shop, which are generally stored at the head and tail of the flower street

There are also flower markets that pay more attention to appearance. When you buy flowers, you often won't find discarded flowers. In case of this, you can go to the back of the flower market. Generally, there will be a large flower throwing place

Pick up the flowers at home. The first step is to check and disinfect them

When we go to the flower market, we can find flowers, which means that these flowers are discarded by the flower market, and the reasons for being discarded are nothing more than plant death, rotten roots and leaves, insect diseases and poor appearance

Therefore, the first step for us to pick up the flowers is to check and disinfect, including whether the roots, stems, leaves and soil of the plant are suitable for the growth of the plant

1. Bad appearance

If there is no problem in the inspection and the plant is discarded due to poor appearance, we can trim the dry and damaged stems and leaves of the plant and directly put them into the pot for maintenance

2. Poor soil quality

If it is found that the soil quality of the original soil lump of flowers is poor, even only the surface soil is good, and the soil quality in contact with the roots is very poor, we need to replace it with new soil and turn the basin for replanting

3. Plant rotten root

If it is root rot, we should remove all the rotten roots of the plant, soak the pruned roots in carbendazim solution for disinfection, take out the roots and replace them with soil for replanting

4. Diseases and pests

If the plant is discarded by the flower market due to diseases and insect pests, we should trim the branches and leaves with dense diseases and insect pests, and then use chemicals to eliminate diseases and insect eggs, such as the most common white powder and aphids

Pick up the flowers at home. The second step is isolation and maintenance

No matter what reason the flowers are discarded, when we take them home for maintenance, we should isolate them from the original flowers at home for a period of time

Otherwise, once the flowers picked up carry diseases and pests, they are likely to infect all the original plants at home. It is not a pot of flowers picked up, but a trouble to go home

Therefore, it must be maintained for one month and no plant diseases and pests can be found before the new plant can be mixed with the old members of the family
