If it is applied again, it will be difficult for the plants to absorb it, and it will easily burn the roots and cause fertilizer damage. Usually, you have to wait half a year before top-dressing, and top-dressing two or three times a year is enough.

1. Light: Newly planted peonies in pots should not be exposed to strong light. They should be placed in a place with astigmatism and good ventilation. Such an environment can promote it to resume growth faster. If exposed to the sun again at this time, the leaves will be burned and the potting time will be extended.

2. Watering: Generally, watering should be done after potting. Once the water is heavy, it will be water-permeable, and then there will be no need to water frequently. Wait until you find that the pot soil is dry before watering again. If you water it too frequently, it will not be able to absorb it and the roots will easily rot, which will lead to planting failure.

3. Temperature: Newly potted plants are also sensitive to temperature. Very sensitive and must be strictly controlled. It is best to provide it with a temperature between 15 and 20 degrees. Too high or too low is not good for the pot and will prolong the time for the pot.
