How to grow African violets? Do these few things well and they are easy to grow

Speaking of African violets, many friends surely still do not know what plant this is. It is actually what we usually call the African violet. From its name we can tell that this plant originates in Africa. After this flower blooms, it looks very similar to our country's pansy. The petals are three large and two small, so in our country this plant is called African violet. African violets not only come in diverse colors, but when placed in our rooms they can also purify the air and improve the quality of life. For such a beautiful plant, would it not be great to grow it at home? Come on, let us talk about how to care for African violets.

First, we need to give African violets enough sunlight. That this plant can grow in Africa shows just how much light it can take. So we can place it outdoors for care, which allows it to bloom often. However, at noon in summer we must also pay attention and provide shade.

Then when watering, we must be careful not to let water accumulate in the potting soil, because if there is too much moisture, the stems and leaves will rot, and then blooming will be difficult. In summer, we need to water more, because the weather is very hot and the plant's transpiration is very fast, so we can do it in the morning or in the evening, because the temperature will not be very high. At noon we cannot water the flowers. First, because the water temperature is high, and second, in the flowerpot warm water is not good for the roots to absorb, so that will not work either.

Next, if fertilizer is needed, we should use nitrogen fertilizer, not phosphorus fertilizer, and we absolutely must not get it wrong. Before using the fertilizer, we should first dilute it with water, and then apply it. When fertilizing, we pour the fertilizer directly on the surface of the potting soil. Be careful not to get it on the leaves, as it will damage the leaves.

Finally, when repotting, we should choose soil that is loose, fertile and has good drainage, which will also reduce water accumulation. Then at the bottom of the pot we should put some organic fertilizer, so that when it is first planted it will have enough nutrients for growth.

African violets are brightly colored. Grown at home, compared with other flowers they are very different and immediately stand out, because this purple is a deep purple with some blue in it. So friends who have grown African violets at home, how do you all care for them? Let us talk about it together.
