You probably don't believe it. My first three years as a police officer are basically "police killers". In the worst case scenario, the flower market has moved back to a well-opened pink police station in the living room, where it has been in the living room for a week, leaves have been thrown out, and six months have been a piece of wood. It was painful and burning, and it was too hard to take care of the king of the flowers。
And then i realized that the spring festivals were so intense that most of them were anti-season seedlings. The old book had made it clear that after the fall, before the frost fell, anti-season plowing was like letting a man spend a few nights looking at the spirit, and the bottom was empty. Buying home changes, hormonal retreats, and you don't die。
I remember this lesson for 15 years: growing flowers, respecting the natural rhythm。
One, the first round of life. I did the stupid ones. Yes
After the death of the first catalog, i was holding on to my work for a year。
At the end of september of the following year, a dark day was chosen and a three-year-old bowl of “rouyang red” was picked up in a local nursery. Why don't you go after some kind? The new ones are first skin-skinned. That is the truth of blood。
This planting, every step of the way, is the most traditional:
This is how the soil is made up: four of the leaves, three of the earth, two of the sand of the river and one of the decomposition of sheep. Attention, sheep dung must rot completely or burn the roots. I'm using the same kind of stuff that i crush with my hands. When mixed up, water is measured, if there is no ph paper on hand, and a handful of earth is squeezed, and a few drops of veal can't reach the bubble, it means that it is not alkaline and suitable for the police. The acid alkalinity is between micro- acids and micro-alkalis, and the police are the favorite。
Don't try to pick the pot. I'm using the best ventilated pottery, 30 centimetres caliber, a broken pottery on the bottom of the basin, and a thick river sand to make sure that the bottom of the basin is not watered. This step was a life-saving one, and many of the policemen were not killed, but drowned。
There is a key detail when planting: where the roots and the roots intersect, the old florist is called "five flowers" and must be flatbed with the earth. Buried deep, new sprouts smothered in the ground; shallowed and exposed to freezing in winter. And how we did so, when the soil was filled up to eight minutes, one of them planted a plant, so that the bouquets and the basins would be flatened, and the other hand would continue to fill the soil, so lightly press it down, so that the water would pour through its roots, and if it dipped down, it would be thin enough to make up a layer of soil。
When this bowl of red is planted, it's in the south balcony where there's plenty of light, and i haven't managed it all winter, so it sleeps in the cold. Pyramids have to experience cold springs, winter is cold enough, and the buds of the next year are well divided。
In april of the following year, it drummed three flowers and finally produced two deep pink flowers with large bowls. I was sore when i saw the flowers. It's not like buying a ready-made flower -- it's a miracle of life that you've prepared for a whole year with a plant。
Two or 15 years of stepping on lots of pits and drawing up three iron laws
The first iron rule: water is never "see the mood."
In the third summer, i almost regretted three years for a pot of water. After a week of rain, i saw the rain on the balcony and the mud was wet and my heart was groaning, but it felt like it was wet, and it didn't matter. As a result, three days later, the leaves began to turn yellow and the earth turned and one third of the roots became black and soft. That's typical root decay。
That time, i saved the night: take the plant out of the pot, shake the wet mud lightly, cut all the dark-haired roots clean with disinfected scissors, leave them behind, and then use the polymix solution for half an hour, put it in the cool air, and put it back on dry and dry soil. It's been a long time since it's been alive。
And from then on, i set myself a dead-end rule: either the earth is dry or not, or water until the bottom comes out of the water. How exactly do i judge whether it should be watered or not? And we did not use a wet measure, but a single chopstick was inserted in two thirds of the basin, and it was pulled out, and the chopsticks were not wet with mud, and the surface of the chopsticks was only fluent and even dry, so they pour water once. During the rainy season, police stations were moved to areas that could not be rained, and water from the trays was washed clean and never overnight。
Second iron rule: no light is enough. Hana
Up to the eighth year, he felt good about himself, moving a bowl of police from the balcony to the corner of the living room, feeling like he was in the house. Then, in the spring of that year, it had no leaves, no flowers, and the whole of it was like a green shrub。
It was only then that it became clear that it would take at least six hours a day for the police to direct the sun, and that it would not be possible to separate the buds. This is the idea that the ancients grow flowers when they say, “examining their sun”. I moved it back to the south balcony, and the next year's flowers came out. So if your balcony is northward, either you don't have a guard or you put a full-spectral plant light on it。
Third iron law: a little thicker fertilizer can destroy an entire tree
After a year of flowers, i felt that the police were “infirm”, trying to make up for it, and then doubled the amount of compound fertilizer, soaking it in the water. The next day, the edges of the leaves were all clogged up, and the buds were blacked out — a serious complication, and the roots were burned by high concentrations of fertilizers。
My heart was sore that i washed up the soil with plenty of fresh water, washed away the extra fertilizer and put it in the air. The latter survived, but it didn't slow down throughout the summer, and the amount of the second year was significantly reduced。
Now i'm fertilizing and i'm always holding the words “better, more than less”. At the onset of the new sprouts in the spring, a thinly fertilized bean cake fertilizer was applied once; before the flower adornment was coloured, two doses of potassium phosphate were sprayed at a strict concentration of 1:1000, increasing the abundance of the flower acupuncture; after the graft, a combination of nitrous phosphorus balanced weight was filled once with the graft, which was reduced by half compared to the recommended in the instruction book; a small scavenger dung was buried at the bottom of the basin in the autumn; and after winter, no fertilizer was applied in any way to allow the police to sleep completely. I haven't changed in 15 years。
Three: to keep the police well, there are three more
Apart from the three irons above, there are a few things that have been done right, which will make you a very strong policeman。
Summer shade: while the police are tanned, it burns leaves after midday, which exceeds 35°c. My approach is to pull a 30 per cent sunscreen net outside the balcony between 12 p. M. And 3 p. M. In the summer, and to tan at other times。
Winter spring: if the next year is to be a good one, the winter must freeze the police. At least 45 days of low temperatures maintained at 0-5°c, this is the biological demand for thawing. There are enough closed balconys without heating in the north, the room with heating is too hot and the police are going to grow early and must have few or no flowers in the coming year。
Switching basins and sub-plants: pellets are better replaced every two to three years. When my old pony is changed, it drops the plant off a third of the earth on the outside, cuts out the thick, dead roots, and re-enters the basin with new trophic soil. If a series is particularly thick, it can be cut open from the roots in the autumn with a sharp knife, with three to five full sprouts in each series, with a sterilised wound covered with grass ash and a dry one day, with several new rounds of policing。
Day-to-day prevention: aphids are the most easily recruited when the buds of the spring begin. I usually use no pesticides, a small spoon of detergent water for a litre, drop a few drops of edible oil, shake it and spray it carefully in a wormed area, and spray it every two days, three times in a row. During the summer, high temperature, high humidity and foliage disease are best prevented, and if the leaves are found to have black and brown spots, the leaves are removed in time, and a diluted multibacterium is sprayed, the spread can be contained。
Four or 15 years later, it's a family, not a pothole
The original "roseyang red" had grown from three thin branches to over 40 old branches, blooming on time in april each year, with the highest number of twenty-seven going back, and the whole police unit lit a gill fire。
"you're a good cop."
It's not that i'm well fed, it's that it taught me too much in 15 years. Teach me to be busy in the spring, to cover up in the summer, to reserve for the coming year in the autumn, and to wait in peace in the winter. It is only in this context that we can truly understand that flowers are produced not by technology to conquer a plant, but by creating a good environment in which the plants themselves become the most beautiful. As the old saying goes, although it is made by man, it is opened from heaven, it cannot be hastened, nor can it be justified。
This fall, i'm going to replace that old loyang red with a golden yao huang as a new partner. Next 15 years, i don't know what new work it's gonna teach me。
If you're also thinking of a potty poacher, you might want to start this fall with a solid breed. I can tell you what's going on in the process, and we're going to talk about the pits we've stepped on for 15 years and the way out。
