Now let Huahua introduce the growing methods for small chrysanthemums! So that more people who love small chrysanthemums can have one of their own!

Plenty of light

Small chrysanthemums belong to the Asteraceae family. As everyone knows, plants that bloom absolutely cannot do without sunlight, so you must give small chrysanthemums plenty of light every day. Plenty of light can promote their growth rate and also ensure the blooming quality of small chrysanthemums.

Proper fertilization

During the spring growing season, you can apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to small chrysanthemums 2-3 times; phosphorus and potassium fertilizer allows small chrysanthemums to promptly replenish nutrient elements during the growing season. When small chrysanthemums are about to bloom in autumn, you must also ensure they have plenty of nutrients - you can give them an extra application of dilute fertilizer water once a week. When small chrysanthemums grow flower buds, you can apply calcium phosphate fertilizer once more; after all, only sufficient nutrients can make small chrysanthemums bloom more beautifully!

Suitable soil

For small chrysanthemums, the most suitable soil is loose, well-aerated and fairly fertile soil. To get this kind of soil, you can mix leaf mold, sandy soil and cake fertilizer together in a 6:3:1 ratio.

Water moderately

Like other plants, small chrysanthemums need proper watering - not too much and not too little. If there is not enough water, it will affect the growth rate of small chrysanthemums, and they will grow very slowly. If there is too much water, root rot will occur, which becomes very troublesome, so watering must be considered carefully. In spring and autumn, water once every two or three days; in summer, water once in the morning; in winter, reduce watering depending on the specific situation - watering about once a week is enough.

In addition, you should also pay attention to protecting small chrysanthemums from frost damage, preventing pests and diseases, pruning axillary buds and other routine measures. Those with more experience can also propagate small chrysanthemums by cuttings, plant them out and so on, making your small chrysanthemums look even better!
