1. Cultivation method

1. Temperature and light:

Pay attention to ventilation when cultivating begonia flowers. It is best to place begonia flowers on the balcony or outdoors. It likes to grow in a sunny environment. If it is in a shady place, its growth will be affected. Begonias during the growth period must be placed in a sunny place, and care should be taken to keep them warm when the weather is cold.

2. Watering and fertilizing:

Fertilizer should be applied after leaves fall in autumn to replenish nutrients, and fertilizer should be applied when buds are budding in spring. Be sure not to water Begonia too much, and don't let water accumulate in the soil.

3. Pruning:

Begonia flower pruning is to cut off dead or insect-infested branches and leaves during the period after the leaves fall and before they sprout, so as to maintain the best between branches. A certain distance, so that the light can be more even. If you want the flowers to bloom more lushly, you can cut the long branches short and retain the buds to obtain nutrients.

2. Pest control:

1. Aphids: Generally appear when ventilation is poor, which will cause leaves to turn yellow, affect flowering and even cause the death of begonia flowers. Therefore, ventilation must be strengthened and the breeding environment must be changed in time for prevention.

2. Red spider mites: They are more likely to appear in high temperature environments. Red spider mites will cause the leaves to turn yellow and fall off. Once discovered, spray pesticides in time.

3. Leaf rollers: They mostly harm the leaves of crabapples from May to June. When leaf rollers appear, you only need to carefully check and find them, and then brush them off.
