In the early summer, you should put the Clivia in a place with scattered light to breed, and do not give it full day light. It needs to increase the number of times of watering slightly and reduce the number of times of fertilization to meet its demand for water and nutrients. In addition, it needs to spray multiple diluted carbendazim or dichlorvos to prevent the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.

1. Light

The light in early summer is not very strong, but it is not very weak. In addition, the Clivia does not like strong light, so it should be placed in the scattered light for breeding, and it is better not to give it full day.

2. Water

In early summer, the temperature gradually increases, so the evaporation rate of water in the soil will correspondingly increase. At this time, it needs to be watered a little more to prevent water shortage due to evaporation.

3. Fertilization

Spring is the peak season of plant growth, which requires frequent fertilization. In early summer, the growth rate of plant is not as fast as that in spring, so correspondingly, the number of fertilization should be reduced. It can be controlled by reducing the amount of fertilization or increasing the cycle of fertilization.

4. Prevention of diseases and insect pests

Summer is the time when plant diseases and insect pests occur intensively, so it must be prevented in advance in early summer. The disease and pest can be prevented by spraying multiple diluted carbendazim or dichlorvos. In addition, it is better to put the plant in a place with good ventilation conditions, which also helps to avoid the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.
