Pot soil: It is best to use tile pots when breeding. The soil should be loose and well-drained. Light: It should see more sunlight during the growing period, but should not be exposed to direct sunlight in summer. Watering: Watering can be done every week when potting. Watering needs to be gradual during the growth period, but do not let too much water in the soil. Fertilization: Fertilize once every 10-15 days during the flower bud differentiation period. Do not use raw fertilizer. In addition, the temperature should be maintained between 18-20°C.

1. Pot soil

When cultivating freesia, you should use clay pots. The soil should be loose, fertile and with good drainage. Don't use too heavy soil for cultivation. The soil that is not breathable and easy to agglomerate will affect the growth of the plant root system.

2. Lighting

It prefers sunlight. During the breeding period, you should ensure that the plant can see enough light to avoid raising it in the hot sun, which is very easy to cause leggy growth.

3. Watering

Water appropriately when the pot is first placed, about once a week. As the plant continues to grow, the amount of watering can be gradually increased. It is very afraid of too much water, so the amount of water must be controlled to prevent excess water accumulation.

4. Fertilization

When the flower buds of the plant are differentiating, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be applied every 10-15 days. Fertilize it with a lower concentration; fertilizer that is too concentrated will burn its roots. In addition, do not apply raw fertilizer to it, but use fully decomposed fertilizer.

5. Precautions

When freesia grows, it should be given a growing environment of 18-20℃, and be careful not to let the temperature be too low. At night, the temperature should be maintained between 14-16°C, and the winter temperature should be between 6-7°C, otherwise it will freeze.
