Instructions

1

In the open ground chrysanthemums blossom in Augustand can withstand freezing to -6 ° C. It is better to breed and transplant chrysanthemums in the spring. But if there was such a need, and you decided to breed chrysanthemums in the fall, planting of plants for winter, but not later than mid-September, is possible so that the flowers before frost could take root. The root system of chrysanthemums develops parallel to the soil, so rooting takes place slowly.

2

Chrysanthemums do not like shady places and stagnation of moisturein the soil. Planting them is recommended on sunny elevated plots. But they are also afraid of drought, since the root system of plants is superficial. Therefore chrysanthemums need a drainage layer in the planting pit (coarse-grained river sand) and loose, moisture-permeable, weakly acidic or neutral soil. If the soil is too dense in the garden, peat, compost or overgrazed manure should be placed under the planting, but not much, 500-600 g per well is sufficient, otherwise the plants will stretch and leave not in color, but in the leaf mass.

3

The depth of the hole for a chrysanthemum bush is 40 cm. Prior to disembarkation, the prepared wells are spilled with water. The chrysanthemum bush is put into the hole, practically without penetration, and covered with earth mixed with biohumus in the proportion of 20: 1. Tall grades must be attached directly to the support in the form of two pegs at the time of planting.

4

Immediately after planting, the bush should be pinched, removingon it a point of growth. Twenty days later, a second pinching is carried out - part of the shoot with two or three nodes is removed. If the weather is warm and sunny, in the first week planted shrubs need to be shaded during the day.

5

If you plant a chrysanthemum before mid-Septemberdid not have time, it is better to drop them (especially varietal ones) not into the ground, but into pots. Pre-seedlings must be cut to 2/3. The pot should be wide, but not deep. He goes to a heated loggia or balcony. The ideal temperature for hanging chrysanthemums is + 6 ° C. The earth in the pot must be periodically moistened. If possible, in late February, you can plant chrysanthemum in a greenhouse. Then by April it will grow young shoots, which can be cut to cuttings and root in a box with sand and humus. In May, rooted cuttings and a uterine plant can be planted in the open ground.
