What are the secrets to caring for potted daisies?

Daisies love light and fear heat. In central and southern China, sow in mid-September, plant out in November, and they grow and bloom rapidly in early spring; cultivation and management are relatively simple. But this year, when I inadvertently planted daisies in flower pots of different sizes, I discovered a little secret of daisy cultivation.

In early November of that year, I transplanted daisies with 3-4 true leaves into nutrient pots with a □ diameter of 15 cm and a depth of 17 cm, and into unglazed clay pots with a □ diameter of 17 cm and a depth of 15 cm, using the same management measures after planting. In early March of the following year, I found that 8 plants grown in clay pots with shallower soil had produced no tillers, had small leaves and short petioles, formed a rosette shape, and grew weakly; all the other plants had produced more than 5 tillers, were growing robustly, and had already formed flower buds in the leaf clusters.

1. Placement of feng shui plants on office desktops:
Office plant feng shui for guarding against petty people. Placing a cactus in the office has the effect of guarding against petty people and increasing self-defense ability. However, a cactus with thorns is not suitable for placement in the bedroom, otherwise it will lead to disputes. In addition, keeping some flowers and plants in the office appropriately can not only regulate the air, but also regulate a person's psychological state and relieve the monotony and fatigue brought by work.

2. Office plant feng shui for air purification:
Aloe, spider plant, snake plant, cast-iron plant, and monstera are natural scavengers that can remove harmful substances from the air. Studies have shown that snake plants and spider plants can absorb more than 80% of harmful gases indoors and have an extremely strong ability to absorb formaldehyde. Aloe is also good at absorbing formaldehyde and can absorb 90% of the formaldehyde contained in 1 cubic meter of air. English ivy, sago palm, chrysanthemum, kumquat, pomegranate, portulaca, Chinese rose, camellia, pomegranate, aglaia, daisy, wintersweet, marigold, and others can effectively remove harmful substances such as sulfur dioxide, chlorine, ether, ethylene, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen peroxide. Orchids, osmanthus, wintersweet, caladium, and red-backed excoecaria are natural dust removers; their cilia can intercept and absorb floating particles and smoke dust in the air.

3. Office plant feng shui for sterilization:
The volatile oils produced by fragrant flowers such as roses, osmanthus, stock, jasmine, lemon, multiflora rose, dianthus, lily of the valley, and crape myrtle have significant bactericidal effects. Plants such as crape myrtle, jasmine, and lemon can kill native bacteria such as diphtheria bacteria and dysentery bacteria within 5 minutes. The fragrances given off by plants such as multiflora rose, dianthus, lily of the valley, stock, roses, and osmanthus have obvious inhibitory effects on the growth and reproduction of tubercle bacilli, pneumococci, and staphylococci.

The above choices of office feng shui plants are for reference. With this list, everyone can choose their own desktop plants according to their needs. Without saying more, this pretty girl also has to hurry and prepare a pot.
