Most of the friends who raise flowers know that winter is the most difficult season for flowers to bloom, but if you add a few colorful flowers to the bleak winter, will you feel much warmer? Recently, many friends asked me if their lotus flowers could bloom in winter. Let's explore whether they could bloom in winter.

Can you drive in winter?

As for whether it can bloom in the cold winter, the answer is yes. As long as we pay attention to a few points, the lotus can bloom in the cold winter

Secret script 1 of winter flowering: light

The flowering of the lotus needs a certain environment, and this requirement is not low. It is like a delicate child in the flowers, which is difficult to serve. It can't be cold, it can't be hot, it can't be dry, it can't be too wet. Enough light should be given to the lotus, about 15-18 hours a day. Install fluorescent lamp in the greenhouse. If the lighting is too long day and night, it will develop better and the flowers will be bigger. And enough sunshine can advance the flowering period to a great extent. Warm sunshine, plants like it more.

Secret script 2: temperature

The temperature in winter must be known by all of us. Delicate flowers have high requirements for the temperature. The suitable temperature of the lotus is 13-17 ℃, which is not conducive to flowering if it is higher than 25 ℃. Of course, it is not necessary to pay much attention to it in winter. Therefore, it is necessary to control the temperature of the lotus above 13 ℃, so as to ensure that the lotus flowers bloom in winter.

Secret script of winter flowering 3: fertilization

As mentioned earlier, the environment of the lotus is very selective. It needs not only enough light, but also frequent watering, loose soil and thin fertilizer. We must prepare them in advance. If it is attacked by bacteria, it will get sick, so when it is very small, it needs to spray with 60% Zincon, which can prevent the disease and ensure the growth of the lotus. In addition, water must not be sprinkled on the surface of the leaves of the lotus, which is easy to cause decay.

To sum up, if you want to let your favorite lotus blossom in winter, you need not only sunshine and water, but also our careful care. If you work hard, the flowers will be more beautiful.
