Love for comfort and beauty is inherent in a woman by wise nature. It is rare to meet a woman who does not like flowers. Every hostess wants to make her home joyful and attractive. Violet flowers can perfectly cope with this task. Is it possible to imagine the March holiday without flowers? Therefore, this low-cost idea for a home business will always be in demand.
But why is she good?
We can say that the character of this flower is flexible. He is not capricious: subject to certain rules, caring for violets will not cause much trouble and will not take much time. Violet from other colors compares favorably with a number of properties:
Ease of care;
· A variety of colors, shades and sizes;
· Compactness and extraordinary decorativeness, which makes it a wonderful gift;
· Easy and quick reproduction (from the handle to the flower - only 6 months);
· May bloom a month, or may a year (depending on the variety);
· The ability to "persuade" to bloom by a certain date;
· Can act as a collectible.
All this turns the cultivation of violets into a profitable business that does not require significant upfront costs and large areas, giving the joy of communicating with fresh flowers.
Frequent Why
1. Why does the violet not bloom?
Typically, there are two main reasons: a too short daylight hours (less than half a day), or a too large pot was used during transplantation, and the plant began to grow roots, trying to fill in the excess living space. This is the “disease” of all flowering plants: they bloom only in cramped conditions. Caring for violets in this situation is quite simple: you should increase the light and reduce the pot.
2. Why do dark spots increase over time on the leaves, after which the plant dies?
Most often, the cause is overflow and, as a consequence, the development of rot. It is especially easy to “fill in” the violets in the autumn-winter period, because when the temperature drops and the lighting is insufficient, they almost stop growing and blooming. The soil in the pot should be loose, have sand, vermiculite. Otherwise, when the water stagnates, the rot of the neck of the roots cannot be avoided, and the flower dies. It is also impossible to dry the neck, since at the same time some of the roots dry up and fall off, microorganisms get into the resulting wounds, and root rot develops. In the initial stage, the flower can be saved by rooting. Caring for violets implies regular watering, but not plentiful, they must be watered with “soft”, settled water at room temperature.
3. Why do flowers dry out without opening completely?
This may be due to too dry air and high temperature in the room or acid reaction of the soil. You need to try to transplant the plant into loose soil with a neutral reaction of soil pH, and maintain the temperature no higher than +21 degrees. You can make a plant bloom at a certain time by constant lighting for 1.5-2 months.
As can be seen from the above, caring for violets is quite simple. If you follow several rules, maintain a certain microclimate, choose good varieties, then the plants will delight with lush and prolonged flowering.
