Winter in the indoor maintenance of the Clivia, with the spring temperature rise, should be moved to the outdoor maintenance.
Windows shall be opened for ventilation 1 or 2 days before leaving the room.
In temperate areas, people usually leave the room before and after the Qingming Festival, and in cold areas, they have to delay about 15 days. Or when the temperature is above 15 ℃, you can leave the room
After going out of the room, you should first put it in the shade of the leeward wind, and then move it to the place where the air circulates to receive sufficient light after the monarch orchid gradually adapts to the external environment.
The time of changing pots of adult Clivia is generally after flowering in spring. Plants that don't bloom in spring can change pots when they leave the room.
1. Carefully remove the casserole from the basin.
2. Trim the roots properly, cut off the old and sick roots, and apply carbendazim powder on the wound for sterilization.
3. Replace with new culture soil. The new culture soil should be prepared according to the ratio of saprophytic soil: pine needle: river sand: charcoal = 4:2:3:1. So as to increase the nutrient and permeability of the soil.
4. The finalized Clivia can be cultivated in the basin of the original model, while the growing Clivia should be cultivated in the basin of the first size.
5. Use your hands to hold the root system, gather it and put it into the basin, pour the soil on one side and straighten the flowers
1. For plants with tillering buds, 3-4 new leaves and height of more than 10 cm, it is more suitable to divide plants when changing pots.
2. The new leaves with roots can be carefully cut away from the mother plant with a sharp knife that has been detoxified. The ones with roots can not be broken off by hand. The wounds are coated with sulfur yellow powder or carbendazim for sterilization.
3. A single plant with roots can be directly planted in a small basin, and those without roots can be cultivated with fine sand first, and then cured in a basin.
Because of the rising temperature in spring and the early growth of Clivia, its water demand is increasing day by day. After the slow growth of Clivia in winter, there are few nutrients in the body, and there will be a high demand for fertilizer.
Due to the increase of water demand of Clivia, the times of watering should be increased correspondingly, but it should be noted that watering should not be too much, and the basin soil should be kept moist at ordinary times. In the current season, water once every 4-5 days.
Nitrogen fertilizer should be the main fertilizer for Clivia. About 10 days after leaving the room, a thin liquid fertilizer should be applied, such as fermented soybean cake fertilizer or urea solution.
With the rise of temperature, diseases and insect pests in dormancy begin to spread, encroach on plants and affect their growth and development.
The mixture of 0.3-0.5 Baume can be used to spray the leaves and bulbs of plants once every 10 days for 2-3 times in succession, which can not only prevent diseases, but also kill overwintering pests.
