1. Disinfection

The first step in growing hyacinths is to disinfect its bulbs to prevent them from rotting. The simplest disinfection method is to remove the skin and old roots of the bulbs, and then soak them in potassium permanganate solution for about half an hour. After soaking, take them out and put them in a ventilated place to dry.

2. Planting

After disinfecting the hyacinth bulb, you can plant it in the soil of the flowerpot. It is best to let the soil cover the bulb by two centimeters. After planting, water it and make sure to water it thoroughly. Hyacinth does not have high requirements for the soil. You can add some base fertilizer to keep the soil loose and have strong water permeability.

3. Maintenance of hyacinth

After planting hyacinth, it needs to be germinated in an environment above ten degrees. It takes about twenty days for all the bulbs to germinate. During this process, attention should be paid to the supply of water, and the principle of not watering unless the soil is dry, and watering thoroughly when watering should be followed. In addition, after hyacinth enters the flowering period, it should be placed in an environment with relatively low temperature, which will prolong its flowering period. After the flowers bloom, it can be moved to a warmer place and allowed to receive appropriate amount of light every day.
