CHRYSANTHEMUM CARE AFTER TRANSPLANTING – FAST RECOVERY, STRONG ROOTS, SHINY GREEN LEAVES

Chrysanthemums are among the most popular flowers due to their large blooms, vibrant colors, and long flowering period. However, after transplanting, plants often face root weakness, water stress, easy wilting, and slow recovery. Proper post-transplant care combined with BACONCO fertilizers helps chrysanthemums establish roots quickly, develop strong stems, glossy green leaves, and prepare for vigorous growth, uniform flowering, and long-lasting, beautiful blooms.

Post-Transplant Recovery – The Critical Stage

After transplanting, chrysanthemums often experience shock due to relocation and environmental changes from the nursery to the field. This recovery phase determines plant survival rate and future flower quality. Key goals during this stage include:

• Encourage fast root establishment, healthy fine roots, and improved nutrient absorption.
  
  
• Reduce transplant shock, minimizing leaf wilting and delayed growth.
  
  
• Build a foundation for thick stems, strong shoots, dense young leaves, lower pest risk, and support uniform bud formation and flowering.

Post-Transplant Care and Fertilization

1. Watering and Root Stimulation

• Timing: 2–3 days after transplanting.
  
  
• Product: Con Cò COBiO ROOT at 30–60 ml/20L sprayer, applied evenly on leaves.
  
  
• Benefits: Supplies amino acids and readily absorbable nutrients, stimulates fine root growth, helps plants recover quickly after transplanting.
  
  
• Frequency: Repeat 2 times/week during the first 2 weeks for optimal results.
  
  
• Note: Avoid strong spraying that may damage young roots.
  
  

2. First Basal Fertilization

• Timing: When roots turn white, about 7–10 days after transplanting.
  
  
• Product: NPK Con Cò 16-16-8-13S+0.1Zn, 2–3g per plant (~50–70kg/ha/application).
  
  
• Benefits:
  
  
  • Promotes balanced development of stem, leaves, and roots; increases resilience.
    
    
  • Stimulates strong shoots, glossy leaves, and provides a foundation for future bud formation.

3. Foliar Nutrition

• Timing: 5–7 days after basal fertilization.
  
  
• Product: Cò Con COFOLI FULAMIN, 20–40 ml/20L sprayer.
  
  
• Benefits:
  
  
  • Enhances nutrient absorption, resulting in glossy, chlorophyll-rich leaves.
    
    
  • Stimulates robust root growth, improving nutrient uptake from soil.
    
    
  • Supports plant resilience against environmental stress, reducing leaf wilting or yellowing.

4. Pruning and Early Canopy Management

• Retain 1–2 strong shoots at axillary buds, depending on planting purpose.
  
  
• Remove old leaves or pest-affected leaves to improve air circulation and reduce disease risk.
  
  
• Lightly tie plants to stakes or wires to prevent leaning while roots are weak.
  
  
• Benefit: Focuses nutrients on strong shoots, increases root activation and uniform growth.
