Precautions

The steps for planting daisies in pots: first sow the seeds, and then shade them appropriately. After the true leaves grow, keep the temperature at about 18°C. When the true leaves have grown to 80% of the seedlings, the third At this stage, the room temperature can be lowered to about 15°C. After the roots are fully grown, transplant them into pots in time. Daisies have basal leaves in clusters, so they need to be ventilated.

Steps

Stage 1: Plug seedlings

Germination begins when bacon penetrates its seed coat, and the first stage is from the entry of the young roots into the soil to the growth of cotyledons. The temperature should be maintained at 18°C. Keep the cultivation medium moist. The seeds like the warmth of the sun, so there is no need to cover them with soil. However, direct sunlight must be avoided and the medium must not be allowed to dry out. At this stage, the pH value is maintained between 5.5 and 6.2, and the relative humidity is 100%. After sowing in pots, they should be shaded appropriately.

Stage 2: Cotyledon emergence and growth

The second stage begins when the cotyledons gradually grow into true leaves. Still keep the room temperature at 18°C. The humidity of the medium should be maintained between 70% and 80%. Of course, it should not be too dry. The growth of the cotyledons requires the roots to penetrate into the medium to absorb nutrients. The first two stages take a total of 2-3 weeks.

Stage 3: True leaf growth and development

The third stage is from the growth of true leaves to 80% of the seedlings. The room temperature can be appropriately lowered to about 15°C. As the temperature decreases, the humidity will also decrease. The interval between two waterings can be longer and the plants should be thoroughly dried before watering again, thus forming a dry-wet cycle, which is conducive to the growth and development of roots.

Stage 4: Refining seedlings

At this stage, the root system has been fully formed, and the seedlings have become cold-resistant through hardening, which lasts for about a week. Temperature, humidity and fertilization are basically the same as in the previous stage. It needs to be transplanted into pots in time. The last two stages take about 1-2 weeks to complete.

Notes

1. A cool potting environment can make the plants compact.

2. High humidity in potted plants in winter causes the leaves to become damp, which causes gray mold. The humidity of potted plants should be kept appropriate.

3. Daisies have basal leaves in clusters, so ventilation needs to be maintained to prevent base rot.
