Processing after Lige Begonia blooms
1. Remove residual flowers

1. Remove the remaining flowers

When the flowers have finished blooming, you must first remove the remaining flowers. Do not leave them on the flower branches. If they remain on them, they will cause rot and affect the overall ornamental quality. In addition, a large amount of nutrients have been consumed during the flowering period. If it is not pruned, it will continue to consume nutrients, affect the supply of other aspects, and be detrimental to the growth of the next year. The flower branches should also be cut appropriately to reduce the consumption of nutrients as much as possible. Pay attention to applying plant ash to the wound to disinfect and sterilize.

2. Supplementary nutrients

Flowering consumes a lot of nutrients, so after flowering, you need to replenish nutrients and add compound fertilizer to ensure a balance of multiple elements, so as to ensure the growth of the next year. If you don't fertilize at this time, the nutrients will be difficult to support when the flowers bloom next year.
