As still grow smart Aust. Why you should consider in the autumn
I salute all florist!
Eustoma (lisianthus and she's Texas Rose) became a stumbling block of many lovers of ornamental flowers. On the one hand, so you want to decorate a garden or windowsill home gourmet "rose". After all, she is so gorgeous and looks magnificently. On the other hand, almost 90% have already tried to do this at the mere mention about Aust roll their eyes and say categorically: "Never again!".
If you are just thinking about growing lisianthus or already planted, but something went wrong, I advise you to read this note memo to the end. And even better - to save it as a bookmark or page in your social network, you do not lose valuable information.
success of the event depends largely on whether the grower to know the features of the plant:
- long, very long vegetation period (time from germination to flowering).
- love eustomy to ample coverage - without a sufficient amount of light the growing season is increasing, and flowering is delayed until the autumn or does not occur at all.
- lisianthus for such gorgeous roses need a lot of nutrients - it's not marigolds, about which one can forget after sowing.
And all this we will take into account:
✅ Do not buy ready seedlings, and grow your own. The temptation to avoid trouble with the earth and pots usually causes frustration. Seedlings are grown in the greenhouse under ideal conditions after transplanting to flower, at best, will experience confusion and seriously hamper the development. In the worst - 2-4 weeks grower throw withered leaves.
✅ Sow Aust no later than February. I know a woman who successfully grown lisianthus in the Altai Territory, doing more seeds in November. Especially in the winter, more and sow nothing special. I do not know about you, but I have been itching!
Therefore, the acquisition of seeds is worth considering now. Time, as always, will fly by very quickly.
✅ Remember that grow dwarf Aust much easier than tall varieties under the cut. Maybe we should start with it, and after the successful jump to other varieties?
✅ Eustoma at all stages of growth sensitive to transplant. Therefore, it is better to plant seeds in cups, making the loose soil and good drainage, than to sow in containers or peat pill.
✅ sure to think through what you will highlight the germinated seedlings. Personally, I believe that expensive fitolampy - divorce for money. A similar effect brings LED linear lamp 36 W, which stands in the hardware store about 500 rubles. If the seedlings quite a bit - use ordinary table lamp with energosberegaykoy.
But that's not all there is to know.
✅ regularly fertilize Aust. First, nitrogen fertilizers, and in June - phosphorus. The organics is better not to use to our ward udumala not fatten.
✅ course eustoma on a bed looks very nice. But to achieve decorative flowering easier in a container or pot: I advise to try first so)
