If the soil quality is not good enough, you can change the pots and soil.Both acidic and alkaline soils are suitable for planting marigold, which can grow in slightly acidic to slightly alkaline soils.When changing basin, we should choose suitable soil, the best choice of basin soil is fertile, well-drained sandy loam, and we can use a better ventilated clay basin.Be sure not to damage the root system while repotting, you can cut off the damaged root system.
Marigold likes the warm environment very much. It is better to give it an indoor temperature of 15-20 when it is just taken home. The temperature in winter should not be lower than 5 , and in summer should not be higher than 3 .If the temperature is not properly controlled, it may prolong its life cycle.
When you buy it back, don't water it in a hurry, although it likes the wet environment, but you should avoid water accumulation at the root.But when it comes to growth, it should be provided with sufficient water.In the hottest summer, it should be watered twice a day, and in winter, when the temperature is low, it should be watered every four or five days.
Just bought home do not give too strong sunlight, give it mild light to adapt to the environment.If the light is insufficient, its stems and leaves may be soft and slender, resulting in fewer and smaller flowers.It is more sensitive to light, can use short light sunshine time, less exposure to sunlight, promote its early flowering.
When you just bought it, you can't fertilize it, but marigold needs fertilizer, so you need to use fertilizer to supply nutrients, try to apply nitrogen fertilizer, once a month can meet its growth needs.First, spread the fertilizer on it, and then water it thoroughly, so that the fertilizer can fully penetrate into the root system of chrysanthemum with water.
