Cultivation methods of Milan
Spread coarse sand or charcoal chips with a thickness of about 3-5cm on the bottom of the basin as a drainage layer, then spread a small amount of culture soil on it, put the plants in the center of the basin, and compact them while filling the soil, so that the roots of the plants can be closely combined with the soil.
After the potted plant is finished, water it once, then water it less once in half a month, keep it in the shade to promote new roots, and water it in time when the pot soil is slightly dry.
If it is a seedling, wait until it grows new leaves, then gradually let it see the light and keep its environment moist.
Pay attention to keep the temperature above 15T after cooking.
How to fertilize Milan
After the temperature rises in spring, Milan will move outside for a week, then loosen the soil and apply some dilute nitrogen fertilizer. You can apply 10%~20% fertilizer to the decomposed cake, and then apply liquid fertilizer every 10 day to promote its growth.
Branches and leaves grow.
From June, Milan entered a period of vigorous growth and flowering until mid-June 10. During this period, it is necessary to apply concentrated fertilizer mainly containing phosphate fertilizer every 15 days, or spray 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution every 15~20 days, which can also ensure more vigorous flowering.
The flowering period must be dominated by phosphate fertilizer, otherwise there will be a phenomenon of only long leaves without flowering.
In June ~10, if fertilization is insufficient, it is easy to cause the buds to wither, the number of flowers to decrease, and the flowers are not fragrant.
