To carefully remove the flower, water it in advance and carefully remove it along with the soil. Important to use good drainage 1 cm high, for large pots 5 cm.

Plants such as gloxinia, violet, begonia, tradescantia, ivy, balsam, are easily propagated by leaves that are first placed in water. Chlorophytum propagated by “babies” that appear on the plant after flowering. This baby takes root even without pre-soaking.
Cacti and others succulents can also be propagated using cuttings, however, to prevent the plant from rotting, the torn cuttings should be dried for a couple of days.

These days, plants do not absorb nutrients well; water can stagnate in the pot and lead to rotting. It should also be remembered that plants should be watered frequently in summer and less often in winter. cacti For example, in winter you can generally water once a month, or even less often.
IN Fire days (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) Water the flowers carefully early in the morning (in winter and autumn) and in the evening after sunset (in summer and spring) so that the scorching sun does not lead to burns. The same applies to spraying flowers.

Some flowers require moisture so much that they need to place a tray with wet expanded clay under the pot.
Flowers such as: cacti, succulents, orchids, arrowroot, ivy, tradescantia, ferns.
Plants such as: violet, begonia, cyclamen.
Plants should be watered until they have settled for several days. tap water , although some gardeners recommend watering flowers such as orchids, boiled water. IN tap water Bleach is added to clean it, which has a detrimental effect on the flowers. To allow the chlorine to evaporate, it is enough to leave the water in an open container. 12-14 hours.
If the plant is watered from above, water it at the edges of the pot, so as not to expose the roots. If leafy plant There is a funnel made of leaves, you should pour a little water into the center of the funnel. If the plant is watered from below, like a violet, gloxinia or orchid, then the water should be poured into a tray or immerse the pot in water for 30-60 minutes if the plants are severely dehydrated. If there is still water in the tray a couple of hours after watering, it should be drained.
What to do, if you are going on vacation, and there is no one to water the flowers in your absence? For example, to prevent flowers from drying out if you are forced to leave, use bucket of water and bandages. A bucket of water is placed in the middle of the room, and flower pots are placed around it. Then the bandages are cut long enough to reach from the bottom of the bucket to the pot. One end of the bandage is dipped into the water, the other is stuck into the ground. This method allows protect the soil from drying out.
If your flowers do wilt a little after your arrival, they will usually come back to life quickly if you start them up again water correctly on Water or Earth days.

Lunar calendar of plants: how to fertilize indoor plants?
All gardeners advise fertilizing indoor plants, since plants in cramped pots do not have the opportunity to receive essential minerals and vitamins, which they receive during natural growth in the ground. Fertilizers help prolong flowering and strengthen the plant’s immunity.
For some types of indoor flowers, for example, cacti or orchids, there are separate fertilizers, which are not recommended for use for other types of flowers. Eat universal fertilizers , which will suit almost all foliage plants in the house.
Typically, such fertilizers contain nitrogen, phosphorus And potassium. Nitrogen avoids the fragility of leaves and stems; phosphorus has a positive effect on flowering and helps the root system grow; Potassium supports the immune system, provides resistance to various diseases and unpleasant environmental influences. Plants also require microelements such as iron, copper, zinc, manganese, molybdenum.
If you buy ready-made fertilizers for flowers, pay attention to dosage and frequency of their use. Usually these fertilizers are quite concentrated and diluted in large quantities water.
Another important point These are contraindications when feeding plants. Typically fertilizers are used in spring and summer, during growth. In winter, when the flower is usually dormant, it is better not to fertilize it. If the plant is sick, you should not stuff it with fertilizers. Try to feed only healthy plants . You cannot make a very concentrated fertilizer solution so as not to harm the plant.

It is usually recommended to replant indoor plants in early spring when they begin to awaken from hibernation. Emerging sprouts or buds can serve as evidence of a flower’s readiness to leave its “home” place. Under no circumstances should you replant a plant at rest or at the moment of flowering.
However, some representatives of the plant world are not particularly sensitive to seasonal changes. If your pet is happy with the inflorescences all year round, you can change his “apartment” soon after he has finished blooming.
Whether a flower needs replanting can be determined by the following signs: it has stopped growing; leaves and flowers have become noticeably smaller than before; the plant withers and turns yellow for no apparent reason.
But there is more reliable way understand whether it is time to change the substrate and increase the size of the dishes. Gently cover the soil with your palm, passing the stem between your fingers, and turn the pot over (do not do this immediately after watering; wait until the soil dries and spread a newspaper on the floor). If the lump of earth does not come out of the pot, lightly tap it on the corner of the table. When examining a large specimen, move the soil away from the edges of the container with a wide knife or a special spatula.
Your task is to examine root system. If it has grown so much that it fills the entire space, it’s time to increase the size of the pot. It is worth replanting the plant even if you notice darkened and softened roots. The affected areas should be removed, and the cut areas should be sprinkled with charcoal.
What time of day is it best to replant indoor plants?
It is believed that the best time of day for replanting flowers is from 16.00 to 20.00. It is not recommended to replant flowers in the early morning (when they have not yet woken up) or at noon (when the phase of greatest activity begins). According to the lunar calendar, the first days after the new moon are chosen for transplantation. To determine the specific day of replanting, you can use the lunar calendar for gardeners.
The lunar calendar for indoor plants and flowers for 2019 will help determine the most favorable days for planting and replanting plants.
During various manipulations with home flowers, they are easily damaged. Broken roots, scratched cuticles, broken stems or torn leaves are all stress for the plant, which can be reduced by following the recommendations of the lunar calendar.
The influence of the Moon on the planetary movement of water has long been known; sea ebbs and flows are determined by the position of the Earth's satellite. Living organisms are also susceptible lunar influences. In plants, the preferential direction of sap flow depends on its phases.
The dates indicated in the lunar calendar as suitable for transplanting and planting plants fall during the period of movement of juices to the upper parts of the flower - stems and leaves. At this time, turgor in the root system decreases, the cells become slightly dehydrated and become less brittle. Thanks to this, they tolerate replanting more easily and take root in the new soil faster.
The migration of water into the leaves occurs during the waxing of the moon. On the waning moon, the roots are filled with moisture and should not be disturbed.
By checking the lunar calendar before starting work in your home or office greenhouse, it will be easier to grow healthy and blooming indoor garden.
