From zero gardening basics to expert in just 30 days

Hello, I'm Blue Goblin! To you, I might be a gardening expert, but I don't see myself that way. My path into gardening came purely from love, and counting carefully, it's been 5 years now, fromkilling everything I tried to grow at the start, to now keeping everything I grow alive, and I can't tell you how many detours I took along the way. Whatever gardening problems you're facing right now, I can say I've been through them all. There was once a very dark period for me, when my family thought that spending money on flowers every day was just not doing proper work, especiallymy parents' generation with their traditional views, who would rather buy some food and drinkthan spend money on plants and flowers.

You may have been through this too, or you may be going through it right now. A woman who married far from Anhui to Zhejiang, arriving in a new place and wanting to do something she's interested in, only she knows the difficulties involved. But luckily, my husband is very supportive of my passion for gardening, which gave me the motivation to keep going. And so, after 1-2 years of study and exploration, I gradually discovered that no matter what kind of flower it is, each has its own set of growth characteristics, andthe care principles between flowers are basically interconnected. As long as you master the general principles of gardening, plus some related techniques, it's easy to grow brilliantly colorful flowers. Here are some of the petunias I grew last year, for you to enjoy:

This is a photo I took when the petunias were in full bloom

This is the moment captured when the double petunias were about to burst out of the pot

This is the beautiful moment when petunias of different colors bloomed

This is a close-up of petunias from different angles. All of the above are petunias I grew in 2017. Although growing them alone was hard work, I also mastered more practical methods of controlling water for flowers through it. Now let me show you the roses I grow:

This is the rose Aila Pompon, when it was in full bloom

This is a rose wall in one corner, the real scene is even more magnificent

This is the rose flower wall this year, when it was in full bloom. The trellis inside, I built myself. How is it, not bad? O(∩_∩)O haha~

This is the rose William Morris, intoxicating to look at

This is the climbing rose wall on the enclosing wall

This is a rose wall of different varieties

I usually like to photograph flowers from this angle, isn't it beautiful? Since there are too many pictures, I won't show them one by one, and I'll share more when I get the chance. By now, you might be wondering

how can one person grow so many flowers in such a short time?

Actually, it's not that I have three heads and six arms, using one person as if she were three. It's that through years of growing, I found a simpler method that isbetter suited to home growing. In general, it can be divided into three aspects:

1. Choosing flowers is more crucial than growing them. 2. Understand each flower's temperament and nature. 3. The general principles of growing flowers stay the same; what changes is treating each differently.

First: Choosing flowers is more crucial than growing them

Many gardening friends, as soon as they see a beautiful flower, rush to buy it and take it home. Within a few days, problems appear like yellowing leaves, root rot and so on, and their first feeling is to doubt whether they know how to grow plants. However, what I want to tell you is:

Choosing the right flower is more important than caring for it!

Growing potted flowers at home has limited conditions, naturally not comparable to professional seedling greenhouses. So you need to choose suitable flowers based on your home environment, and this is the first requirement when buying flowers. For example, if your home has very weak light, or no direct sunlight at all, then you can't choose sun-loving flowers. In conditions of insufficient light, sun-loving flowers die very easily. In addition, I also want to tell you:

Don't buy out-of-season greenhouse flowers

Nowadays, flower cultivation techniques are getting better and better. These flowers are grown by artificially adjusting temperature and light to regulate the flowering period for sale. On the surface, they look very robust and very beautiful ...... But as soon as they're moved to your home, all kinds of symptoms of not adapting quickly appear. Such as wilting, yellow leaves, dropping buds, dropping leaves, or even dying. This is a scene every gardener doesn't want to see....... Actually, when this problem appears, it has little to do with your growing skills; it's mainly caused by too great a change in environment, just like how we people catch colds easily going in and out of air-conditioned rooms. To sum it up in one sentence: to grow flowers well, you first have to choose the right flowers. Second: Understand each flower's temperament and nature

The habits of each kind of flower are not quite the same. First you have to understand its temperament and nature. Take the simplest flower: you need to know whether it likes light or prefers partial shade, how strong its growth is, and what its temperature requirements are. When buying flowers, you should especially learn about this. Understanding these things is exactly the key to growing potted flowers well, and it also helps you care for and manage them later with good reason. For example: a potted plant that likes dryness, and you keep watering it,then the risk of root rot greatly increases, or a green plant that can't take direct sunlight, and you insist on putting it in the sun, at best it gets sunburned, and in serious cases it may be sun-killed outright. Do you feel that understanding the habits of various flowers is becoming more and more important? Third: The general principles of growing flowers stay the same; what changes is treating each differently

From seed, to rooting and sprouting, to growing leaves and blooming, the growing process of flowers is all the same,the only difference is that you need to treat them in different ways. Basically, as long as you master this method, no matter what flowers you grow in the future, their survival rate will be above 95%. So what exactly is this method?

This growing method is something I arrived at through5 years of continuous practice and summarization, and it has now been organized intoa systematic growing theory. The flower photos I shared earlier were guided in practice precisely by relying on this theory, and facts have also proven that this growing theory of mine is quite practical for home growing, otherwise it would have been impossible for me alone to grow so many flowers. The power of this growing method is truly tremendous!!!

I have an internal paid group called the Blue Goblin Readers Group. The meaning of this group's existence isto help gardening friends solve problems. As long as group members have gardening questions, they can ask here, and every night at 9 p.m. I answer them one by one.

Each group member grows different varieties of flowers, and the problems they encounter are wildly varied, such as what to do when a clivia has yellow leaves, what to do when a newly bought rose shows disease, what to do when a phalaenopsis isn't doing well right after repotting, and so on, involving a great many flower problems. That I can help gardening friends answer them one by one is also thanks to the support of the practical experience of this growing theory. So far, I've solved nearly 1500 flower problems for internal group members. Each problem is a highly valuable essence worth referencing. Gardening friends who have followed me all along may know. In the first half of the year, I launched a systematic rose growing course. The reason this course could meet everyone so quickly is likewise by relying onthis growing theoryfor support, so it could be developed in a short time. Nowadays, more and more people are starting to grow flowers, with the aim of making their balcony or yard beautifully decorated, adding a bit of joy to life. Before this, quite a few gardening friends had asked me to opena practical gardening course, and it absolutely had to be the practical kind. After much thought, I decided to develop this systematic gardening theory, which took5 yearsto summarize, into a course. And I gave this course a catchy name"30 Days from Zero Basics to Gardening Expert"The course is divided into 5 parts in total:

Part One: Flower types. Part Two: Buying and choosing flowers. Part Three: Repotting and acclimating seedlings. Part Four: Growing flowers. Part Five: Propagating flowers.

When their own flowers can't survive, the problem always lies in watering; water too much and they die, water too little and they also die. Watering looks very simple on the surface, but if you can't get the degree right, it's very easy to water flowers to death.
