1. Temperature

The fuchsia has relatively high temperature requirements. This is also due to the influence of the original living environment. In winter, when the room temperature drops to about 5℃, it must be moved in time. Warm the room to prevent freezing damage, and spray moisturizer frequently to maintain a certain air humidity. It is afraid of high temperatures in summer. When the temperature reaches about 30℃, it will grow slowly. The high temperature of 35℃ can easily kill the golden bell. Therefore, most flower friends say that the fuchsia is difficult to care for, and it will die in the summer if you neglect it a little bit. We can move it into an air-conditioned room or a cool and ventilated place before the temperature reaches 30°C, and spray water around it to cool it down so that it can spend the summer safely.

2. Soil

To cultivate fuchsia, it is recommended to use loose and breathable slightly acidic soil, such as decomposed leaf mold soil or pine needle soil, peat soil, perlite and river sand. Matched soil. Some decomposed chicken manure or sheep manure can be added to the bottom of the pot to facilitate later flowering needs. If you want the fuchsia to bloom more, you need to top it frequently. Topping has two major benefits. The first is that it will bloom more, and the second is that the plant shape will be more beautiful, and the topping branches can be used for cuttings.

3. Watering

Fuchsia has relatively high requirements for water, and water accumulation in the pot can easily cause root rot. Therefore, watering should be kept dry and wet. Try to keep the pot soil slightly moist in spring and summer. Reduce watering frequency in winter to prevent root rot in low temperature environments. In summer, they should be placed in a particularly cool and ventilated place to spend the summer better. Especially small seedlings should not be left alone just because they are easy to cut.

4. Lighting

Fuchsia is a semi-shade plant. It likes warm sunlight in winter and avoids strong direct light in summer. Insufficient light can easily lead to overgrown branches and leaves, no or few flowers. Therefore, sufficient direct light can be given in winter, early spring, and late autumn. However, when the light is too strong in summer, it will sunburn the leaves and cause premature flower aging, so it must be shaded in time.

5. Fertilization

Fuchsia grows quickly and blooms frequently, so it is necessary to apply thin fertilizer frequently during the growth period. You can apply thin cake fertilizer or nitrogen every 10 days. Compound fertilizer with comprehensive phosphorus and potassium nutrients. If you find that flower buds are gestating, you should switch to fertilizers based on phosphorus and potassium. For example, use potassium dihydrogen phosphate to irrigate the roots of the plants or spray the leaves to promote large and bright flowers and a long-lasting flowering period.
