In order for indoor plants to survive the winter without any obstacles, you should remember about the basic rules of their care.
Watering potted plants
The plant is supplied with water only when the soil is really dry. In a pot with flowers that are particularly sensitive to changes in humidity, it is worth installing a moisture meter.This small device can be inserted into the ground up to a depth of 20 cm.In addition, you should regularly check that there is no water in the covers. If so, pour it out to prevent the roots from rotting.
Rainwater is best for watering as it contains trace amounts of calcium. The water must be at room temperature, so it should stay in the apartment for some time.The tap water should be decalcified beforehand, e.g. by immersing a bag of peat in it.
The heat from radiators and radiators is harmful to plants, therefore the leaves should also be regularly sprayed with decalcified water.
Power
Most plants go dormant in winter, but there are also those that continue to grow and bloom.These species should be fertilized every 2 weeks.The remaining plants should not be fed until spring.
Overexposure
Wilted leaves and shoots need to be cut out on a regular basis so that they do not start to rot or mold.Sometimes a slight correction cut is also necessary.With more serious pruning you should wait until March or April, then the cut wounds heal faster.
