agriculture II. GROWING AND CARE TECHNIQUES

1. Temperature

Because Petunia is an herbaceous plant, it has poor cold tolerance. The most suitable temperature for Petunia to grow is 15-20°C, the minimum temperature should not go below 4°C. In summer when the temperature rises above 35°C, the plant should be moved to shade.

2. Humidity

You can mist the flower pot daily but should not spray onto the petals — only mist the stem, because Petunia petals are delicate and water droplets falling on them can cause the petals to bruise and wilt.

3. Fertilizing

Initially after repotting, you can regularly apply a thin layer of fertilizer. If the plant produces new leaves, apply a small amount of diluted nitrogen-containing fertilizer. Petunia typically blooms twice a year, in May and October. During the blooming period, apply diluted compound fertilizer every two weeks to encourage new buds.
