Moisture: It is best to keep the humidity at about 80% and keep the pot soil moist. Lighting: Ensure adequate lighting. Temperature: normal room temperature, pay attention to ventilation. Fertilization: Apply thin fertilizer every two weeks to about 20 days.

1. Soil

The root system of lilies is relatively developed. In order to avoid affecting the absorption of nutrients by the roots, when choosing a pot, it should be as large as possible and not too shallow. You can directly purchase nutrient soil on the market, or you can mix garden soil, sandy soil, and leaf humus soil in equal proportions, and then add base fertilizer to make nutrient soil. Just change the pot every other year and add fertilizer. The soil should be acidic, especially calcareous soil.

2. Moisture

The highest humidity It is best to keep it around 80% and not fluctuate too much. Don't water too much, just keep the pot soil moist. There is a lot of rain in summer, so be careful not to accumulate water to avoid root rot.

3. Temperature

Normal room temperature It can grow normally if the temperature is controlled between 16 and 23 degrees. If the temperature is too low in winter, it should be moved indoors for maintenance. It should not be lower than 5 degrees. In summer, the maximum temperature should not be higher than 30 degrees. Pay attention to ventilation. Too high or too low temperatures will cause damage. It stops growing and will only resume growth when the temperature is above 10 degrees Celsius.

4. Lighting

Lily likes A sunny environment and long periods of shade will lead to poor differentiation of flower buds, affect flowering, and slow growth. Provide it with sufficient light every day. The midday sun in midsummer is too strong, so it must be shaded to avoid burns caused by sunlight refraction.

5. Fertilization

The amount of fertilizer applied to lilies does not need to be too large. A thin fertilizer can be applied once every two weeks to 20 days. The consumption of nutrients during the flowering period is relatively large, and top dressing is required. , providing enough nutrients for flowering. You can choose fertilizers containing nitrogen and potassium.
