The Key to Vibrant Blooms: Proper Watering Techniques
Watering plays a crucial role in the health of geraniums. They need consistent moisture to bloom profusely, especially in hot conditions where watering two to three times daily might be necessary—early morning, mid-afternoon, and after sunset are ideal times.
During colder months, reduce watering but ensure the soil remains slightly moist. Use soft water, as hard water can affect flowering. A simple trick is to let tap water sit overnight with some mud in the bottom of the container to adjust the pH, making it more suitable for the plants.
Avoid Common Watering Mistakes
Ensure there is no water stagnation, as this can cause root rot and block blooming. Never water the leaves directly to prevent the risk of fungal or mold growth.
Proper Planting and Care for Geraniums
Position geraniums facing South or South-East to maximize light exposure without overwhelming them. Use pots about 20cm in diameter and deep for smaller plants, or larger pots for bigger plants, ensuring ample space for root growth. Place gravel at the pot’s base to stabilize it and promote good drainage.
By following these guidelines, your geraniums will not only bloom spectacularly but will also become a stunning feature of your garden or home decor.
