And the table covered in winter garden will seem to more harmonious if to use utensils and devices with vegetative motives.

Other problem for a winter garden - wreckers and illnesses of plants which much more hardy at the big density of plants as conditions for them are created practically ideal, and - birds and predatory insects - here are not present natural enemies. Application of chemicals in this case not always is desirable, especially if in winter to a garden spend a lot of time and the more so eat. There is also more modern way - the biological control. It is developed for the majority of hothouse illnesses and wreckers.

If the winter temperature does not fall below +10°С, a specific variety of plants can will increase (for example, hibiscus, passionflowers, and many surprising plants). At higher winter temperature (+15°С) there is possible a cultivation of tropical plants, such as anturium, a ficus and even orchids.

Council No. 3

Some komnatnam plants need support. Reliance in the form of bars, or the protanutah windows along the nylon cords needed vitmsa plants. Plants with low self stalk can serve as a peg vtakaemy to land at the stem with the least bloated side. To prevent damage to stem from the tape or soft cord. Podwyazawaut not tightly so that stebel been untouched by kolyshku and omitted material podwyazochny krestoobrazno between stalk and kolyshkom (in the form of eight), tied the knot kolyshke. Odnosteble podwyazawaut plants in several places. The reduced plant podwyazawaut several main stems, and the rest pulled to them. To support the plant canopy using rounded support in the form of the rim. Plants in winter slow processes of life, they need cool and moist air. Do not start a bath house or place flowers at home on the floor of the castle. The dampening effects put the battery tray with water and the nice easy leecka disease will not only help to take care of the flowers, but also adorn window : a bright spot of colour will look elegant against a backdrop of lush greenery. Models supplied with a long thin nose particularly convenient. At least once a day flowers to the spraying gun. Keep measure when polivaete except with abundant moisture and elevated temperature roots can zagniti. Grouping plants easier to deal with the lack of humidity, just do not forget that this is acceptable in the plants with the same requirements for humidity and light. At the time of the leave, if color is short, or when you are not there to irrigate can propose the following method of irrigation. Fill water facility, the bed adjacent to the surface of foam pad or well vpitawatee moisture mahrowoe towel so that it partially hanging in the water, and put on a towel plants in pots without pallets and boards. The towel will absorb moisture and thus will be able to do a few days without water. Take the proper care of plants, and they have rewarded their ideas blossom and the bright foliage.

Displant plants growing in rooms better in the spring from March to May. If the roots of plants densely opleli earth com, especially if they formed a dense mass reminding felt, the plant is displant. Before the transplants, in advance fried enough land. The displant plant immediately after irrigation, as well as at a time when the plant needs it. It moved to the day after irrigation. Before transplantation, an earthen com a plant carefully removed from the trees, produce, remove small mochkovatae interlocking roots, as well as cut zagnivschie back to a healthy places cuts prisapaut tolchenym coal. The com lowered in the new pot so that the root neck was about 1 to 2 cm below the top of trees, the location regulate podsapaya land at the bottom. While one hand plant in the center of trees and the other hand to cut around land. Large plants grown denser uminaya your land, plants with thin and tender roots can grow in a loose soil. Your neck should not be filled land, land pile below the top edge of flowers at 1-1.5 cm, to be a place for water to irrigation. Cacti, with the exception of epiphillumov and siegokactusov not Bo within 3 days after transplantation, the remaining plants room after transplantation Bo everything. The next Bo doing in a few days when land podsohnet top. Change plant without disrupting the earth coma as refrigerators. The bulk earth who put in more plants, sleeping on the ground and then slightly objimaut land fingers. After handling all plants Bo. For example, the palm always perevalerve only. Handling can be performed in the spring, summer, autumn, but only at a time of growing plants. Ultrasound plants, which ogolilici stalks and leaves left in the upper part. In this case, all grown old part of the plant, leaving cm height of 5-7, see Obrezannoe plant often spray, keep the bright sun rays. Shortly pence to evolve from the lower or sleeping kidney new shoots. If adults flowering zimovali plants in a cool room and stayed all winter without leaves, the spring is essential for the resumption of growth in the two weeks prior to the transplant to dry cutting and the weak links. The cut stem make sharp knife or sektorom slides over, the cut prisapaut tolchenym coal. Equally important will be the flower hygiene. Remember to remove the yellow leaves, dead plant parts, extra shoots and ottsvetshi head. To make the plants compact and dense crown use crop shoots or prischipavanie foliage. Prischipka the top of the flight, or stems aimed at halting the growth delay time of anthesis. As a result of this transaction below sleeping kidneys trogautza in growth, and plants can be given a desired shape bush or stambowogo trees. Pasankovanie, ie removal pazushnykh young shoots or buds, are, as they become available to enhance basic sage. The closer shoots situated buton, in the earlier phase and caution them removed. Wounding stem or bud of their twisted and deformed.

During the period of intense growth plants require intensive nutrition for the formation of green shoots, flowers and fruits. At that time, Flowers useful to provide fertilizer, pre-irrigated plants with clean water. Lack of any of the nutrients triggering symptoms of starvation and excess, especially micronutrients, can cause poisoning. In choosing fertilizer, it should be borne in mind that flourishing plant or dekorativnolistvenno e. The first require more potassium and phosphorus, and the latter need nitrogen. Dekorativnolistvenny e Plants should supplies weekly from March to October and from November to February-once a month. Flowering plants need mainly in Phosphorus and potassium that increases kidney and seeds, as well as the bright color of flowers and ripening fruit. Some rooms require special fertilizer plants. For example, azaleas, orchids, cacti and gortenzii produce special fertilizers. Nitrogen is an essential element of root feeding. With his lack of slowing growth, changing colour of leaves. Phosphorus plays a major role in the processes of photosynthesis and respiration. The phosphorus, it is necessary in the early period of life for the development of roots, flowers and growth. Potassium improves the resistance against plant diseases and decreases in temperature. The lack of potassium on the leaves are brown spots; Going away edges of a leaf plates resembling ozheg. Calcium contributes to the development of a strong root system. His early learning helps boron. A lack of calcium leads to the cessation of root and shoot growth of the plants. Magnesium is involved in the processes of photosynthesis and respiration. Then there is shortage of the leaf plant appears "marbling" - they become pale and spotty. Iron and manganese are involved in okislitelno-vosstan Ideology processes, resulting in the formation of chlorophyll. The lack of iron, and manganese is over, the leaves are svetlo-zheltymi. Excess iron is a plant poison. The ratio of these elements must be in the proportions : iron into 3 to 4 times more than the manganese. Very busy growers are encouraged to use special fertilizer-bubbly water-soluble tablet, udobritelnye balls or wand that can be at least 3 months to supply the plant all necessary without risk of overdose. There fertilizer for each plant, but in principle, you can use one for all, universal. There should be no chemical fertilisers, if infected plants are at peace or just introduced. Usually fertilize starting in 2 - 3 weeks after transplantation, when the plant is well entrenched. Fast-growing plants sustained more than growing slowly. Flowering plants are beginning to food supplies after the blossoms, and continue fertilizing until the end of bloom. Vnekornevaya nutrition (spraying fertilizer plant Solutions) provides plant nutrients through the leaves and stems. It is an additional admission fertilizer to the full range of care for plants. Such plants as epiphytic bromelii, get water and nutrients their leaves, so they fertilize special liquid fertilizers, non-salts. To determine the optimal concentration of the solution of fertilizer, it should conduct a test spraying of branchs.
