Everyone knows that summer temperatures are high, and the stuffy heat makes people feel irritable, let alone plants. If you grow flowers in summer without good ventilation, it is basically like putting the plants into a steamer, and it can easily cause the plants to die outright. So below, let me explain how to ventilate plants.

Clivia

In summer, Clivia basically enters a semi-dormant state. Summer itself is rather hot and stuffy. If it is grown in an environment with poor ventilation, it is very easy for bacteria to breed in the soil and even for the roots to rot directly. Therefore, when growing Clivia in summer, it should be kept in a well-ventilated environment. When it is too hot and stuffy, you can use an electric fan to blow on the soil, not on the leaves, otherwise the leaves can easily become soft.

Succulents

Succulent leaves are relatively thick and look cute and chubby, so they are deeply loved by flower enthusiasts. However, during summer cultivation, if they remain in an unventilated state for a long time, bacteria will breed on the succulents, causing the leaves to develop black rot and even fall off directly. So when growing succulents, you can increase ventilation, and in hot weather use a fan on the succulents, which can prevent bacteria from breeding and help them grow better.

Christmas cactus

The leaves of the Christmas cactus are relatively thick, and it blooms with rather bright flowers, but in summer the Christmas cactus basically enters a dormant period. If it is grown for a long time in an environment with poor ventilation, it is easy for red spider mites to breed on it, the leaves to turn yellow, and ultimately for it to die outright. Therefore, when growing it in summer, it should be kept in a cool and ventilated environment.

Azalea

Azaleas have luxuriant branches and leaves, remain evergreen through the four seasons, and have rather vivid flowers, giving them high ornamental value. In summer, azaleas fear a stuffy and hot environment most. If ventilation is poor, the leaves will dry up and fall off. So when growing azaleas in summer, it is best to keep them outdoors. If that is not possible, you can place an electric fan nearby, which can increase air circulation.
