With the changing seasons, it is critical to adapt our plant's care habits to follow their own schedules. The environment influenced by the weather determines the ways plants grow. Keeping in mind critical aspects of being steered clear of may assist you in having your plants remain vigorous always, even throughout transmittances, which are seasonally limiting. According to Benedict T Palen Jr., some mistakes are noted below that you should not ignore.
Neglecting Watering Needs
According to Benedict T Palen Jr.,
one of the most obvious mistakes in what plants need during seasonal changes is
forgetting about the amount of water. There is a reduction in water consumption
when temperatures rise or fall, and this, in turn, affects the plants' growth.
Plant watering may have to be done to retain its moisture during hot seasons;
otherwise, overwatering can rot. Double-check the moisture content of the soil
before deciding on your schedule to save time and water.
Ignoring Light Conditions
Plants need light to grow, and these seasonal changes
result in different amounts and intensities of sunlight that the plants can
receive. Learn to change the plant's position based on the rapidity of the
sunlight change. In the summertime, some plants may need a shield from the
strong midday sunlight, whereas in the winter, they may probably need filtered
light.
Forgetting About Temperature Changes
Extremely high-temperature changes make it difficult for
plants to grow and can hamper their growth accordingly. Steer clear of placing
plants near the windows during winter and avoid heaters as well because the
plants can suffer from "temperature shock" resulting from this. Also,
in the course of summer, don't forget to save your plants from too much heat by
using shades or taking all the plants that need a shady place inside during the
peak sun hours.
Overlooking Soil Nutrition
Plants, when it comes down to the bare minimum and their
health, are ruthlessly dependent on the nutrients in the soil as a major source
of energy. Meanwhile, seasonal change means a lot to their nourishment.
Fertilize your plants as frequently as needed to replenish nutrients.
Vary fertilization timing as per your plant's needs. Instead of fertilizing
exponentially, first see what is enough because excess fertilization can kill
even your lovely ones. Organic fertilizers for a slow but steady supply of
nutrients may be introduced.
Neglecting Pest and Disease Prevention
Moving to a new climatic regime also triggers variations in
pest and disease activities. Wacht auf all sunflower plants and look for any
threat in the form of insects or disease and take action straight away. A
thorough examination of your plants and proper pruning would include moving
weak leaves and taking the dead debris from them, which will protect them from
getting pests and diseases.
