How can you not look after the Decembrist? 4 main mistakes why a plant does not bloom, or dies altogether

It is not difficult to care for a Decembrist. In order for the plant to please with magnificent flowering in the middle of winter, it is enough not to make 4 key mistakes in caring for it.

Otherwise, it can not only miss the next flowering, but even die altogether. I tell you what the mistakes are and how to avoid them.

Frequent, abundant watering

Excessive watering of the plant does not lead to anything good. With an excess of incoming moisture, the roots of the Decembrist do not have time to absorb it, the liquid stagnates, and the root system of the plant begins to rot.

Following the roots, the plant itself dies, if timely measures are not taken.

In order to save the plant, watering must be stopped for a while and resumed not earlier than the soil is completely dry.

Infection not recognized in time

The plant needs regular and thorough inspection. This is the only way to identify the first signs of a disease affecting a flower.

Here are its signs:

• Your Decembrist's leaves are stained
• Changed their color to gray
• Parts fall away from them

When these symptoms appear, it is necessary to treat the flower with special preparations for treatment.

Oversupply of fertilizers

In an effort to provide the plant with nutrients, many growers do it too diligently. As a result, the Decembrist drops the buds, does not pick them up at all, withers and dies.

Remember: Decembrist needs to be fed no more often than once a month.

The dosage of fertilizers is also important: ready-made complexes from the store must be diluted in a 1: 1 ratio with water. It is good to use nutritional complexes designed for cacti - they are less concentrated.

In any case, it is better to slightly underfeed the plant than to overfeed and burn the root system.

Incorrect temperature and sunburn

Deviation from the temperature norm in any direction is fraught with the death of the flower. The required temperature for full-fledged growth and flowering of the Decembrist is from 18 to 22 degrees.

If the leaves of a plant dry up, brown spots appear on them - perhaps this is how harm manifests itself from exposure to direct sunlight.

The Decembrist should be positioned so that it receives enough light, but it should be slightly diffused.

By avoiding these mistakes, it is not at all difficult to get a healthy, beautiful plant that will delight you with flowering in the middle of winter.
