What are the precautions for potted lotus care?
After the potted lotus leaves float, the temperature rises and evaporation is high. It should be watered once a day and kept full of water at all times. If there are too many floating leaves, they should be tucked into the mud, otherwise it will affect surface ventilation and block sunlight. Be careful not to let children shake the leaf stalks, because the flower buds and leaves emerge from the same node, and the leaf stalks are covered with hard thorns. If the flower buds are shaken before they emerge from the water, the young buds will be worn. After the buds leave the water, the stems can be inserted into the holes in the lower part of the cylinder to prevent wind from damaging them. To eliminate cockroaches, a few small goldfish should be placed in the tank at the beginning of planting, so they can be killed without using chemicals.
After flowering, it should still be kept full of water (water depth less than 10 cm, or the leaves will turn yellow). At this time, it is the stage of crusting. Once the leaves turn yellow, photosynthesis cannot be used to make carbohydrates, and new leaves cannot develop normally. After the frost falls, cut off the dead leaves and move the cylinder to a non-freezing cold storage room for storage. In winter, there must be water in the tank.
220. How to grow lotus in a pond
Drain the pond water before planting, then apply organic fertilizer. After deep turning, add less water so the loose soil settles. Then use a hoe to dig planting holes 10-15 cm deep according to seedling length, with a row spacing of 1.5 m and a plant spacing of 1 m, let the hoe drill downward, and finally cover with mud.
After planting, pour in 15-20 cm of water, then gradually deepen the water level, with the deepest point not exceeding 60 cm.
If you do not dig before winter in northern China, you should deepen the water level to more than 1 m. You cannot let the ice freeze all the water. If it does not freeze, the soil under the ice will not be frozen. If the main purpose is viewing, it is not necessary to dig up seedlings every year. By keeping 2/3 of the open water surface as the standard, you can decide how many years to grow based on the degree of natural propagation. Drain the pond water before digging, wash the dug-out clams and cut off the whips, store them in non-freezing cold storage with wet sand, or soak them in a tank or cover them with a wet bag. Category.
