At present, there are more and more types of flowerpots in the market, but there are three kinds of flowerpots commonly used, namely, pottery basin, porcelain basin and plastic basin. Now let's introduce these three kinds of flowerpots and selection techniques. 1、 Pottery basin is a good tool for planting flowers. Pottery basin is made of clay. Ordinary pottery basin is divided into gray and red. It is the most common and oldest one in the world. It has the characteristics of low price, durability and good air permeability. This kind of flowerpot has different inner diameter and height specifications, which can be reasonably selected according to the victory habit of flowers and different purposes in the cultivation process. Among the earthen basins, there is a kind of purple sand basin, which is rich in Yixing, Jiangsu Province, so it is called "Yixing basin". The basin is beautiful and generous, with good ventilation and water permeability. It is famous at home and abroad, but the price is high. The new pottery basin should be soaked in clear water for several days when it is used for the first time.
Ceramic basin with good ventilation and water permeability II. Although the ceramic basin is gorgeous, it can't plant flowers and trees directly because it has no water absorption and air permeability, and can only be used for basin covering.
The third is plastic basin. With the development of economy, this kind of flowerpot is widely used in flower production. It is light in weight, beautiful in shape, bright in color and complete in specifications, but it has poor water permeability and air permeability. As long as we pay attention to the looseness of the culture map and reduce the watering times, we can. Another disadvantage is that it is easy to age, and it is very fragile after aging. Pay attention when using it.
How to choose a suitable flowerpot 1. The diameter of the flowerpot mouth should match the crown diameter of the plant;
2. For plants with mud mass, 2-4cm gap should be left around the flowerpot after being put into the flowerpot, so as to add new soil;
3. For plants without mud, the root system should be able to extend and not be bent after being put into the flowerpot. If the main root or fibrous root is too long, it can be properly pruned and then planted in the basin. Knowledge expansion: the cleaning and maintenance of flowerpots 1. Cleaning: after a new flowerpot is used for a period of time, a layer of green moss or a layer of white saline alkali substance will grow on the wall of many flowerpots. This not only affects the appearance, but also blocks the pores on the basin wall. Make the basin's air permeability and water permeability weaken, so it should be removed in time. The main methods are as follows: for the flowerpots with plants, acetic acid can be used to wipe off the water; for the empty flowerpots, they can be immersed in ferrous sulfate solution for 24-48 hours, and then washed with water.
2. Maintenance: always clean the flowerpot to ensure its water permeability and air permeability; the flowerpot is mostly made of porcelain tiles, which are fragile and fragile, so it is necessary to avoid violent collision. When moving the flowerpot and transplanting plants, special care should be taken to avoid damage to the flowerpot due to improper operation; for the patterns on the surface of the porcelain flowerpot, care should also be taken to maintain to avoid damage to the ornamental of the flowerpot due to scratching.
