It is no wonder that the spring for the gardener begins much earlier, than for the average citizen. In order that the flower bed has found the smart look, it is necessary to grow up seedling and in time to plant it in soil.
It is required to you
- Seedling of flowers, open ground, water, fertilizers.
Instruction
1. In the seedling way grow up only some flowers. The lion's pharynx, sweet pea, asters, barkhayets, ageratum, fragrant tobacco, salviya, petunia, nasturtium, dahlia, portulak, annual phloxes, poppies belongs to them. The most suitable period for planting of plants in soil - from the middle of April until the end of May. However postpone landing of thermophilic flowers better until warmer times when the danger of frosts completely passes.
2. Before change well pave the way in flower bed: the earth has to be dug over and fertilized. Use organic and mineral fertilizers. In the spring surely bring nitrogen in the soil: 30-40 g on one cubic meter of flower bed. And bring 50-60 g of phosphoric and potash fertilizers in the fall.
3. Poppy, verbena, cornflower, aster belongs to cold-resistant flowers. They can be landed in earlier terms (end of spring). Thermophilic flowers: barkhayets and nasturtiums land at the beginning of summer. The distance between the planted plants has to be such that flowers freely grew, did not shade and did not oppress each other. Therefore when planting seedling consider duration of blossoming and the extent of future colors. Height of plants, diameter of flowers, branchiness degree - all this has to be thought over and is harmonious in flower bed or on bed. In this plan landscaping bases will be useful to you.
4. So, plant peonies at distance of one meter from each other. Phloxes, astilba and reservoir have enough 50-60 cm between plants. Plant annual plants slightly more densely: at distance of 30-40 cm. Seedling of undersized flowers land at distance 20-25 cm from each other. Consider that after planting of seedling you will need to perform certain works, for example, loosening. Therefore carefully count width mezhduryadyev. Plant plants so that it was convenient to use mattock or "cat". However some weeds nevertheless should be weeded hands.
5. Before landing well water seedling in box and wait so far water will be absorbed. So will easier take out plants from the soil. It is desirable to keep earth lump on roots at change. Then flowers are exposed to stress when landing to the open ground less. In flower bed make holes or grooves and place seedling of flowers at the necessary distance from each other there. Carefully straighten roots of plants in hole that they were not bent. After that powder seedling with the earth and it is abundant water.
6. In the course of change it is very important to choose the correct depth. If to plant flowers superficially, they will poorly keep in the earth and they should be hilled. And at too deep landing some flowers can die. Try to carry out landing so that the heart or cotyledonous leaves were above the ground. Seedling is traditionally implanted in soil 1-2 cm deeper, than in box. And only barkhayets, tsiniya and salviya are not afraid of deepening when landing as can form new additional roots on stalks.
