Planting methods and precautions of water lilies (planting methods and precautions of water lilies in ponds)

1. Planting time: Water lilies should be planted every spring, especially in March and April, when climate and temperature are favorable for seed germination. Flowers bloom about two months after planting. Be careful not to exceed the middle of June at the latest, otherwise the temperature will be too high, which will affect the seed germination.

2. Treating seeds: The seed surface of water lily is hard and has a wrapped outer layer. Before burial, the shell should be treated, and the breach should be made first. After disinfection, cut a hole at the end of the groove, taking care not to hurt the bud. Then soak in warm water, the water temperature is about 20-30 degrees, soak for a week, change the water once every two days, and soon you can see new buds coming out. Soak for another week after emergence, and the roots will grow out. If there is no emergence after soaking for two weeks, it means there is no viability.

3. Pot planting: it is a floating plant. When you go to the basin, you should first put an appropriate amount of silt, and then add water to ensure that the silt can sink to the bottom. Then transplant the germinated water lily to the surface of the water body. After treatment, put it in a cool and ventilated place, and pay attention to controlling humidity, temperature and nutrients in the later stage to make it bloom as scheduled.

4. Precautions: When planting water lilies, pay attention to the pH of the soil, preferably weakly alkaline and rich in humus and organic matter, so it will grow better in this soil environment.
