Maintenance and management of Michelia in spring

Smiling likes warmth. Spring is coming, don't rush out of the house. The temperature is unstable in early spring, and it is easy to get frostbite when you leave the house too early. You can wait until the temperature gradually stabilizes, and then move out of the house to receive light. In order to avoid frostbite at first, you can wait until the weather turns cold at night before moving indoors.

2. Adequate lighting

When planting Michelia in spring, you can give enough light to ensure that there is no less than 6 hours of soft light irradiation every day. Under the irradiation of sunlight, it is beneficial to the growth and flowering of Michelia.

3, appropriate pruning

With the increase of temperature, the top branches of Michelia will sprout new buds continuously, so it is necessary to cut off some bud points appropriately, maintain a good plant type and accumulate nutrients for flowering. After a period of growth, dead branches and rotten leaves will appear on the plant, and many densely crossed branches will appear, which can be pruned in time.

4. Change pots and trim roots

After a year of growth, the flowerpots are crowded and the nutrients in the soil are exhausted. You can choose to change the soil in spring and trim the roots.

5. Water and fertilizer management

Spring is a period of vigorous growth, physiological activities are gradually accelerated, and the demand for water and nutrients is increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to do a good job in water and fertilizer management, keep wet and dry when watering, do not overdo it or dry it, and topdressing compound fertilizer or organic fertilizer during the growth period to promote the development of branches and leaves.
