An interpretation of home flower-growing tips and taboos

Many people approach growing flowers with a just-try-it attitude, because we do not have enough professional flower-growing knowledge, and there is a lot we do not understand about cultivating flowers. Growing flowers is actually something that requires care and patience; some flowers have very high requirements for their growing environment, so people need to have careful observation skills.
For growing flowers at home, what we need to pay attention to is doing a good job with the care and maintenance of home flower cultivation, and we need to pay attention to the effects of different climates on flowers. Repotting flowers (generally done in spring) is also a major flower-growing skill. Repotting can replenish fertilizer for the flowers. When repotting, you can appropriately prune growth that is too dense or roots that have rotted. After repotting, place the flower in a shady spot and water it once. Wait until new roots have grown, then move the flower out to a place with plenty of sunlight.

You need to learn to judge whether a flower is short of water. To judge whether a flower is short of water, you can tap the flower pot. If a crisp sound is made when tapping, it indicates that the soil in the pot is very dry, which is a sign of water shortage, and the flower needs to be replenished with water immediately. There is also the most direct way: look with your eyes at what color the soil in the flower pot appears to be. If the soil in the flower pot appears light grayish-white, it means the pot is short of water and needs to be replenished immediately. There is also another way: pinch some soil with your fingers and see whether the soil still has a certain stickiness. If it has become powder, then it means water needs to be replenished immediately.

When growing flowers, pay attention to fertilizing. Too much or too little fertilizer will affect the growth of the flowers. When fertilizing, we should pay attention to fertilizing according to the season. During the growing season of the flowers, the amount of fertilizer can be appropriately increased, but we generally recommend using the method of frequent applications in small amounts when fertilizing flowers. We should also pay attention to the temperature when fertilizing. Fertilizing in an environment with too high a temperature will burn the flowers, so it is not suitable to fertilize flowers at noon.

Taboos in cultivating flowers. Growing flowers is a task of patience and love, so the first taboo in growing flowers is that the flower grower is careless. This kind of flower grower generally only gives the flowers care at the time they buy them and brings them home, and afterward gradually gives less and less. The second taboo is excessive pruning when growing flowers. Sometimes we prune our flowers because we love them. During pruning, avoid pursuing perfection too much and pruning too much. The third taboo is growing everything. Growing flowers emphasizes slow cultivation. Some flower growers do not pay attention to classifying the varieties of flowers they grow and buy everything to bring home. This kind of flower growing not only fails to take good care of the flowers, but instead leaves more flowers sitting idle. The fourth taboo is constantly changing one's mind. Some flower growers have only a few minutes of enthusiasm for one kind of flower, and when they see other beautiful flowers they want to buy them too. This way of growing flowers will not grow the flowers well; instead, the flowers will not receive enough care and may die, and so on.
