Increase light: More than 5 hours of light must be provided in spring, and shade must be provided in late spring. Water more: Water every day after entering the growth period, and spray water when the temperature is high. Adjust the temperature: At this time, the temperature should be around 18 degrees and not higher than 25 degrees. Add nutrients: Fertilizer should be applied 2-3 times a month. The fertilizer can be compound fertilizer or high-nitrogen fertilizer.
1. Increase lighting
1. Increase light
Canna is a sun-loving plant. The bigger and more abundant the sunshine, the better its growth will be. Therefore, sufficient light must be ensured during its growth period. The sunshine in early spring is mild and it can receive sunlight all day long. After it is fixed in one position, move it as little as possible. The sunshine in late spring will gradually start to be strong, so you need to put a sunshade on top of it. When the sun is strong, you need to cover it slightly. The amount of light per day during the growth period should not be less than 5 hours.
2. Water more
Spring is its growth period, and flower buds will begin to grow slowly. At this time, it has a relatively large demand for water and needs to be watered once a day. If the temperature is relatively high, spray water on the surrounding environment and its leaves to ensure humidity and prevent the branches and leaves from drying out. The temperature difference in spring is relatively large, and the water temperature should be close to the breeding temperature. If the difference is too large, it will damage the growth of the plants.
3. Adjust the temperature
It It likes warmth but does not tolerate freezing, so the temperature of the growing environment must be maintained. The weather in spring is changeable, so avoid outdoor maintenance until the climate stabilizes. Even if you take preventive measures, you may get frostbite. The most suitable ambient temperature for indoor maintenance is 18 degrees, and the maximum temperature should not exceed 25 degrees.
4. Add nutrients
In addition to the above points, the key points of maintaining plants in spring also need to pay attention to the supply of nutrients. Because spring is the growth period, fertilizer consumption is relatively high, and more nutrients are needed to meet its growth needs. For fertilizer, you should choose a nutrient-rich compound fertilizer or a high-nitrogen fertilizer, and use it two to three times a month.
