\@She raised 1 kind of flower to invincible perfection, beating other people's 10 gardens!
Marguerite daisy
The marguerite daisy is a flower that Huahua especially loves. As long as you prune it carefully, it will easily burst into a big ball of blooms!
Want to know how the master grows it into a big flower ball? Keep reading~
1. Pinching and topping are key
The master says that to make the marguerite daisy bloom into a round, full flower ball, you must pinch and top it before flowering, and rotate the pot at regular intervals, so the flowers bloom more and bloom better!
2. Soil selection
Loose, breathable, well-draining soil is most suitable for the marguerite daisy. The master generally uses 1 part garden soil plus 1 part peat soil.
Hydrangea
If you're talking about which flower is bigger than a face, hydrangea has to be one. Hydrangea not only blooms abundantly, but can also be color-adjusted according to your own preferences. No wonder so many flower lovers like it!
Surely quite a few flower lovers want to know how hydrangea can be successfully color-adjusted. Huahua asked the master for the color-adjusting secrets on your behalf!
1. Turning hydrangea blue
Before the flower buds form or when buds appear, mix aluminum sulfate with water at 100 times dilution and pour it into the soil once every 10 days. At other times, add a little white vinegar or ferrous sulfate when watering. Note that these few things cannot be used together!
2. Turning hydrangea pink
Under normal circumstances, if you do not deliberately apply acidic fertilizer, hydrangea will bloom with pinkish flowers. If you want pure pink, you can mix a small amount of plant ash into the soil.
Kalanchoe
Kalanchoe has a beautiful meaning and is loved by many flower lovers. However, it is really rare to collect so many varieties and grow only kalanchoe!
Kalanchoe can bloom several times a year, but some flower lovers' kalanchoe blooms only once and then stops. The master says that as long as you grasp her secrets, kalanchoe can bloom as many times as you want!
1. Pruning after flowering
After kalanchoe finishes blooming, you must prune it so it can bloom quickly and bloom more. When pruning, count three pairs of leaves from the bottom of the branch upward, and cut from the fourth pair.
2. Flower-forcing secrets
The master reveals that the key to forcing flowers is to put kalanchoe in "solitary confinement"! During the day, place the kalanchoe in sunlight. After 5 p.m., put a black plastic bag over it and place it indoors. In about 15 days it will bloom!
Rose
Roses not only have brilliant colors and bloom abundantly, but the key is that they can bloom several times a year! So it is not without reason that many flower lovers are devoted to roses.
Although roses are easy to keep alive, roses are famously a "medicine bottle" and often get infected with all kinds of diseases, which is really a headache!
1. Eliminating powdery mildew
The master's miracle cure for eliminating powdery mildew is "baking soda." After powdery mildew breaks out, mix baking soda with water at 1000 times dilution and spray both sides of the leaves. However, the master says powdery mildew is best prevented in advance, with frequent pruning and more ventilation.
2. Strangling red spider mites
After red spider mites appear on roses, the master sprays the leaves with milk mixed with water, which is said to stuff the red spider mites to death. However, if there are many red spider mites, the master uses Duocai myclobutanil mixed with water at 1500 times dilution to spray and kill them.
Succulents
There is a saying that goes well: "Once you enter succulents, it's as deep as the sea; from then on, your wallet is a stranger." You cannot control your hand that keeps "buying succulents," and before you know it your home is packed with succulents!
Although succulents are cute, not everyone can grow them well. Many succulent lovers' plants often die for one reason or another. How does the master grow them so well?
1. Dealing with black rot
Black rot is a problem beginners often encounter. If it is early-stage black rot, you can dig out the black rot area and re-root it as a cutting. But if the black rot is fairly severe, it is best to throw it away to avoid infecting other succulents.
2. Killing small bugs
Succulents also often attract bugs in summer. If there are only a small number of bugs, you can directly crush them to death with your hands. If there are many, you can rinse them off with running water.
Cactus ball
Huahua used to never understand how anyone could like a cactus ball covered in spines, until Huahua saw what a cactus ball looks like when it blooms, and Huahua was completely conquered by cactus balls!
Huahua believes that quite a few flower lovers' cactus balls have been grown for several years without ever blooming. Don't worry, the master's blooming secrets have already been obtained by Huahua!
1. Soil preparation
The master says that only with well-prepared soil can cactus balls grow vigorously and bloom early. The master generally uses akadama soil, coal cinder, coarse sand, and volcanic rock mixed at 4:3:1:1, then mixes in a small amount of plant ash.
2. Sufficient light
Besides soil, light is also a necessary condition for cactus balls to bloom. If they are always kept in a shaded place, don't even think about cactus balls blooming! It is best to move them to a south-facing balcony or outdoors.
Growing flowers is not about quantity but about quality.
Being able to grow one kind of flower to invincible perfection,
is enough to be called a master!
