Petunias are 100 times easier to grow than roses; with minimal care they burst into a full pot, filling the house with fragrance

Petunias come in an extremely rich range of flower colors and can absorb harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide and chlorine. Grown at home, they can be placed on the balcony or in the living room; this element blends perfectly with the environment, giving a warm and romantic feeling, and they are very popular.

Friends who want to grow petunias well at home can take a look at the following points. I hope your petunias will grow into a full pot, filling the house with fragrance.

|||Seedlings grow slowly at low temperatures|||

The seedling stage of petunias is relatively long, and growth is relatively slow. During the germination period, the temperature must be kept above 20°C, which is no problem at all in summer. Soil moisture should be suitable, with no waterlogging, and sunlight should be plentiful. It seems that if you do not grow a pot of morning glory this summer, you are doing this summer an injustice.

|||Seedlings easily wilt when short of water|||

The root system of seedlings is very underdeveloped, and their ability to absorb water is very poor. At this time, soil moisture should be maintained; do not wait until it dries out before watering, and be sure to avoid blazing sun exposure. In summer, you can use a spray bottle to increase humidity for petunias, at 8 in the morning and 6 in the afternoon.

|||Waterlogging easily kills them|||

The potted plant petunia does not like too much water. Waterlogging easily causes root suffocation, leading to wilted leaves and rotted roots. So normal petunias should be watered only after the soil dries out; this is completely different from the seedling stage, so everyone should pay more attention.

|||Nutrient deficiency easily causes yellowing|||

Deficiency of iron and magnesium can both cause leaves to turn yellow. At this time, you can appropriately supplement some organic nutrient solution. Supplementing trace elements alone has an unsatisfactory effect; at this time you need comprehensive improvement. Using organic nutrient solution, it also contains many trace elements, and also contains very high organic matter. It basically improves the soil, promotes roots, and prevents yellow leaves.

|||Fewer flowers bloom on cloudy days|||

Petunias like sunlight. With short light duration, they are not easy to bloom. In order to let petunias bloom, we can appropriately place them on the balcony, as long as we pay attention to watering. During the flowering period, we can use an organic nutrient solution that promotes flowering. This not only supplements nutrients but also promotes flowering, making it easy to achieve a full pot.

Why do petunias fail to germinate during planting?

It mainly depends on the soil you choose. The best soil is highly humus-rich soil with good air and water permeability. When sowing, just cover lightly; do not press it firm. Keep the temperature at least above 20°C, and they will generally germinate in 10 days.
