1. How to grow narcissus

For narcissus that can be grown at home, the editor has summarized the cultivation techniques for you, so let's take a look:

1. Choosing narcissus bulbs

To grow narcissus at home, the first step is to choose suitable narcissus bulbs. The narcissus bulb plays a decisive role and can affect the subsequent flowering and fragrance. When choosing narcissus bulbs, the main thing is to observe them carefully; in terms of appearance, it is best to choose relatively large ones with a firm texture. A narcissus bulb with dark brown bulbs and no pests or diseases, whose shape you can feel when holding it in your hand, is of top quality.

2. Light

Hydroponically grown narcissus needs reasonable light. What counts as reasonable? Put it on the balcony during the day to enjoy sunlight, and at night move it into the house and place it in a spot with light. Having light can keep the narcissus growing normally and prevent the stems and leaves from becoming leggy.

3. Watering

Since narcissus does not need fertilizer, watering becomes even more important. Generally, narcissus should be watered with clean water, and the watering method can also determine the flowering period. If you want the flowering period to be later, you can pour out the water in the pot in the evening and water it again the next day.
