I bought a pot of flowers, why is there no soil in the pot, only grass and foam Can such flowers fee

Of course you can't feed it! Because those straw and foam are packaging materials in the transportation of flowers, there is no water and nutrients can be used, due to the high humidity in the flower market, in the case of frequent watering of the stall owner, the symptoms of flower water shortage will not be obvious in a short period of time, but once you buy home, the humidity at home can not be compared with the flower market, the evaporation of water is accelerated, and the root system of the plant can not absorb water, and the uncomfortable symptoms of the aboveground part will soon appear.

Now the supply and demand of soil for planting flowers are becoming increasingly tight, especially for high-grade flowers, which have high requirements for soil acidity, loose and air permeability, and it is difficult for general soil to meet the requirements. However, the market price of cultivation substrates that meet the above conditions, such as pine needle soil and peaty soil, is higher. The stall owners of the flower market order seedlings from the nursery at a time, ranging from a few dozen to hundreds at a time.

After the seedlings arrive, the stall owners will prune the seedlings properly, clean the branches and leaves, and replace them with beautiful new pots. In order to stuff the seedlings into high-end new pots that can increase the market price, some unscrupulous merchants will use the method of concealing the sky and sea, stuffing worthless grass and styrofoam into the pots to "fix" the roots of the flowers. The styrofoam is actually the outer packaging box for the seedlings used by the nursery to deliver the flower seedlings to the flower market stall owners - the white styrofoam box, and the grass is to prevent the flowers from bumping and rubbing during transportation.

And the addition of the "protective layer". These plastic foams and straws are just fillers that unscrupulous flower sellers stuff into flower pots when there is no culture soil, and there is no water and nutrients to absorb and utilize, and the root system of the plant cannot absorb water and nutrients for a long time, and of course cannot survive.

What's even more hateful is that those flower sellers are afraid that the flower buyers will refuse to buy if they find out that the pot is not for flower cultivation, so they stuff these filling materials into the lower layer of the pot, and spread a few centimeters of nutrient soil on the surface of the pot to deceive the world, so that people mistakenly think that the flower seller has filled the nutrient soil for the flowers, and they are completely ignorant of the "mystery" in the pot, resulting in the flowers dying soon after buying them because the roots cannot absorb water.

Therefore, we must quickly replace the loose and breathable, and water and fertilizer retention nutrient soil and water thoroughly, within 10 days to put the potted flowers in a cool place, spray several times a day, so that the plant "slow roots", 10 days after can gradually accept the light, if there is no wilting phenomenon, it means that the flowers survive, adapt to the newly planted soil, and then you can strengthen water and fertilizer, into normal management.

Hello! That's nutrient soil, right? There is no problem with the initial germination, and when it grows to 2 to 3 true leaves, it is necessary to change the soil and pot in time, otherwise it will be malnourished and not grow big.

If it helps you, hope.

Yes, yes, but fertilize often.

It is not to save land, but to facilitate the discharge of excess water, and there will be no accumulation of water.

Watering is an extremely important part of flower breeding, but many people cannot correctly grasp the amount of watering, which often leads to potted flowers rotting roots due to water accumulation. The flower shop uses loose foam to cushion the bottom of the pot, which can ensure the water retention capacity of the pot to the greatest extent, so that customers can cultivate the flowers for as long as possible after buying them. In addition, because there are many flowers in the flower shop, it is difficult to maintain, and it is impossible to manage each pot of flowers finely.

In order to drain the water, avoid water accumulation at the bottom of the basin.

In the past, furnace ash and tiles were put in, but now it is easy to put foam and save money.

Prevent soil from running off the bottom of the pot when watering.

In order to drain well, so place 1 3 blocks of plastic foam at the bottom of the basin.
