Tips for watermelon cultivation
1. Irrigation management:
① Water management: wild flower seeds, like other flower seeds, need sufficient water to germinate. After sowing, the soil should be kept fully moist within 3-6 weeks. During this period, spray 1-2 times a day to keep the soil layer moist about 10 cm. Never stop watering halfway.
② With the growth of seedlings, the irrigation water quantity is gradually reduced. If there is no irrigation condition, the rainy season should be used to timely sow. In case of extreme drought, film mulching or bottom line humidity to meet germination requirements can be considered to ensure the ideal landscape effect.
2. Weed control
In order to ensure a satisfactory ornamental effect, weeds can be pulled out after 20 days of sowing. According to the size of the area and artificial conditions, the first weeding is conducted 20 days after sowing, and the second is 40 days after sowing. Basically, pulling 2-3 times can control the growth of weeds. Once the weeds can be identified, they should be removed immediately.
3. Fertilization
The normal growth and development of any plant requires certain nutritional conditions. Although the wild flower combination is barren resistant and has strong vitality, it also needs a certain amount of nutrition supply, otherwise the growth and development are poor and the ornamental characters are not good. For poor soil, it is necessary to apply a certain amount of organic fertilizer or compound fertilizer before soil preparation. If the soil fertility is normal, fertilization can or may not be applied. If soil test is conducted before planting. If the test results show that soil improvement is necessary, compound fertilizer or completely decomposed organic fertilizer can be applied, but excessive fertilization must be avoided! Because this will not only make weeds grow wildly, but also make wild flowers grow in vain. In the process of growth, there is no need for topdressing.
4. Pruning
For most of the wild flower combinations, there is no need to prune, but for the wild flower combination applied in high-grade places, if the flower withers and affects the beauty, it can be cleaned up manually in time.
5. Replant
① Replanting is the most effective way to maintain the landscape effect of wild flowers. People can add varieties according to their own wishes. After the late withering of wild flowers, a cutting and cutting is carried out, and the soil will be frozen in the spring of next year. In cold regions, sowing is later in autumn. In order to avoid germination before the arrival of the next spring, which will cause the seedlings to freeze to death in winter. In warm climate areas, autumn sowing should be carried out as early as possible to ensure early flowering in the next spring. The method of ditching on the surface of soil is adopted to ensure good contact between soil and seeds.
② Remember, the soil must be kept moist 4-6 weeks after sowing to ensure that the seeds germinate well. We suggest that the sowing rate should be controlled correctly, and the re sowing rate should be 1-2 g / m2. If too many seeds are sown again, the wild flowers may be too dense and grow poorly.
③ If your goal is mainly perennial wild flowers, check the locations where wild flowers are planted, and roughly estimate the number of perennial flowers there and the number of brands of annual and biennial flowers. If it is an open space, we can plant a large number of our existing mixed wild flower species or mixed wild flower species prepared according to customer requirements. It is a good method to control weeds by covering the whole planting space with perennial wild flowers.
In order for the seeds to be in full contact with the soil, it may be necessary to sacrifice some topsoil when replanting. If perennial wild flowers are mixed with seeds that bloom in spring, or in summer and autumn, different wild flowers in different seasons will create different ornamental effects.
