How to care for Clivia in summer
In summer, Clivia should be protected from direct sunlight and cultured at high temperatures. It is best to keep it at 18-25℃, because too high a temperature will cause it to die. After entering the dormant period in summer, stop fertilizing and control the amount of watering. In addition, it is necessary to prevent dust pollution, do not pour dirty water, clean the leaves once a week, and prevent soil compaction and insect and disease erosion. Watering Clivia in summer should be done in the morning or evening, and watering should be done thoroughly. If the weather is relatively dry, it can be watered twice a day.
Growth characteristics of Clivia Clivia is a semi-shade plant. It likes neither shade nor sun. It cannot always be placed in a sunny place, nor can it be too dark. Since plants are phototropic, they need to be repotted regularly, and scattered light must be provided at ordinary times to control the lighting time.
Clivia prefers a warm growing environment, and the most suitable temperature range is 15-25 degrees Celsius. When the temperature exceeds 30 degrees Celsius in summer, the plant will enter a semi-dormant stage. When the temperature drops below 8 degrees Celsius, plants will stop growing, and freeze damage will occur below 6 degrees Celsius. It is also necessary to provide diffuse light, apply water and fertilizer normally, and change the potting soil once a year.
How to care for Clivia in summer. To maintain Clivia in summer, you should prevent it from direct sunlight and avoid breeding at high temperatures. It is best to keep it at 18-25℃. After entering the dormant period in summer, stop fertilizing and control the amount of watering. In addition, it is necessary to prevent dust pollution, do not pour dirty water, clean the leaves once a week, and prevent soil compaction and insect and disease erosion.
How to water Clivia in summer. Watering Clivia in summer should be done in the morning or evening. Watering should be thorough. If the weather is relatively dry, watering can be done twice a day. When watering, don't just wait until the soil becomes dry. In summer, when the temperature is high, the deep soil may still be very moist. Before watering, you can tap the flower pot first. If the sound is crisp, water can be watered. You can also weigh the flower pot lightly. If the weight It is very light and needs to be watered quickly.
Tips for fertilizing Clivia in summer. Fertilizing and watering should keep up with the fertilization, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and then put the Clivia into an environment with a large temperature difference for maintenance. For example, the temperature during the day is about 20 degrees, and the temperature at night is 10 degrees. This will last for a month, and the light must be sufficient, so that the Clivia can bloom.
Precautions for summer breeding of Clivia. Summer is the dormant period of Clivia. It is not suitable to raise it in the open. It should be shielded from strong light all day long and use slanting sunlight for a while every morning. Clivia can bask in the sun, but the lighting time must be controlled. Generally, when the temperature is not high, you can bask in the sun for about 8 hours a day, but in high-temperature seasons, you can only bask for two hours.
Prevent yellow leaves of Clivia in summer. Exposure to the sun will cause the leaves of Clivia to turn yellow. You should shade them immediately and cut off the yellow leaves. Don't fertilize too much as it will burn the roots. If the soil is too hard and compacted, the Clivia root system will not be able to absorb nutrients, and the leaves will naturally turn yellow if they do not receive nutrients. It should be replaced with loose and fertile soil.
How to keep Clivia from withering in hot weather. Be sure not to repot it in summer. Repotting will inevitably damage the roots. When replanting, if sterilization, root drying, seedling slowing, watering, and lighting are not done properly, After doing these things, you will find that its condition is getting worse and worse, visible to the naked eye, the leaves are drooping and wilting.
