Marguerite Daisy

Marguerite daisy is a flower that Huahua particularly loves. As long as you prune it carefully, it will easily burst into a big flower ball!

Want to know how the expert grows such a big flower ball? Keep reading~

1. Pinching and topping are the key

The expert says that if you want the marguerite daisy to bloom into a round, plump big flower ball, you have to pinch and top it before flowering, and rotate the pot at regular intervals, so the flowers can bloom more and better!

2. Soil selection

Loose, breathable, well-draining soil is most suitable for marguerite daisy. The expert generally uses 1 part garden soil plus 1 part peat soil.

Hydrangea

If there is any flower bigger than a face, it must be the hydrangea. Hydrangeas not only bloom abundantly, but can also be color-adjusted according to your own preferences. No wonder so many flower lovers like them!

There must be quite a few flower lovers who want to know how to successfully adjust the color of hydrangeas. Huahua asked the expert for the color-adjusting secrets for you!

1. Turning hydrangeas blue

Before the buds form or when buds appear, dilute aluminum sulfate with water at 100 times and pour it into the soil once every 10 days. At other times, add a little white vinegar or ferrous sulfate when watering. Note that these items cannot be used together!

2. Turning hydrangeas pink

Generally, if acidic fertilizer is not deliberately applied, hydrangeas will bloom with pinkish flowers. If you want a pure pink, you can mix a small amount of plant ash into the soil.

Kalanchoe

Kalanchoe has a beautiful meaning and is loved by many flower lovers. However, it is really rare to collect so many varieties and grow only kalanchoe!

Kalanchoe can bloom several times a year, but some flower lovers' kalanchoes bloom only once and then stop. The expert says that as long as you master her secrets, kalanchoe can bloom as many times as you want!

1. Pruning after flowering

After kalanchoe finishes blooming, you must prune it so it can bloom quickly and bloom more. When pruning, count three pairs of leaves from the bottom of the branch upward, and cut from the fourth pair.

2. Secret to forcing flowers

The expert reveals that the key to forcing flowers is to put the kalanchoe in "solitary confinement"! During the day, place the kalanchoe in sunlight. After 5 p.m., cover it with a black plastic bag and place it indoors. It will bloom in about 15 days!

Chinese Rose

Chinese roses are not only brightly colored and bloom abundantly, but the key is that they can bloom several times a year! So it is not without reason that many flower lovers are fond of Chinese roses.

Although Chinese roses are easy to grow, they are famously a "medicine bottle" and often get infected with various diseases, which is really a headache!

1. Eliminating powdery mildew

The expert's miracle cure for eliminating powdery mildew is "baking soda." After powdery mildew breaks out, dilute baking soda with water at 1000 times and spray the leaves on both the front and back. However, the expert says powdery mildew is best prevented in advance by pruning frequently and increasing ventilation.

2. Strangling red spiders

After red spiders appear on Chinese roses, the expert sprays the leaves with milk diluted in water, which is said to stuff the red spiders to death. However, if there are many red spiders, the expert uses Duocai myclobutanil diluted with water at 1500 times to spray and kill them.

Succulents

There is a saying that goes well: "Once you enter the world of succulents, your wallet becomes a stranger from then on." If you cannot control your hands that keep "buying succulents," before you know it your home will be packed with succulents!

Although succulents are cute, not everyone can grow them well. Many succulent lovers' succulents often die for one reason or another. How does the expert grow them so well?

1. Handling black rot

Black rot is a problem beginners often encounter. If it is in the early stage of black rot, you can dig out the black rot part and then re-cuttage. However, if the black rot is relatively severe, it is best to throw it away to avoid infecting other succulents.

2. Killing small insects

Succulents also often attract insects in summer. If there are only a small number of insects, you can directly crush them with your hands. If there are many, you can rinse them with running water.

Cactus

Huahua used to never understand why anyone would like a cactus covered in spines, until Huahua saw what cactus flowers look like, and Huahua was completely conquered by cacti!

Huahua believes that many flower lovers' cacti have been grown for several years without ever blooming. Don't worry, Huahua has already gotten the expert's blooming secrets!

1. Soil preparation

The expert says that only with good soil preparation can cacti grow vigorously and bloom early. The expert generally uses akadama soil, coal cinders, coarse sand, and volcanic rock in a 4:3:1:1 ratio, then mixes in a small amount of plant ash.

2. Sufficient light

Besides soil, light is also a necessary condition for cactus flowering. If it is always placed in a shady spot, don't even think about the cactus blooming! It is best to move it to a south-facing balcony or outdoors.

Growing flowers is not about quantity but about quality,

Being able to grow one kind of flower to perfection,

is enough to be called an expert!
