Monty's
Joy Juice and African Violets
Monty's
Joy Juice will provide a brighter color and larger blooms.
Enhanced plant structure that provides for better
absorption of light and therefore creates a better more
efficient African Violet. The foliage has a thicker
appearance and a darker green color. Monty's Joy
Juice
will help in preventing plant problems such as petiole
rot. Using Monty's Plant Food ensures that the plant will
not have a salt build-up. This allows continued absorption
of needed nutrients. More efficiency in this nutrient
up-take will therefore maximize the overall growth and
life of your African Violet.
Watering
Water
frequently enough to keep soil moist. Between watering allow the
soil to dry slightly. Too much moisture will cause severe
damage. Some growers prefer wick watering.
Temperature
The correct
temperature is 65 and 70 degrees. Do not allow the temperatures
to go above 80 degrees and below 60 degrees.
Humidity
Maintain a
moderate amount of humidity. If the humidity level is low in
your home, place gravel and water in a saucepan under the pot.
Fertilization
Constant
availability of nutrients is ideal. Dilute Monty's
8-16-8 @ ¼ teaspoon per 1 gallon of water in the
watering can or place ½ teaspoon per gallon of water when wick
watering.
Light
Ensure that
your African Violet will receive direct light, but not direct sunlight.
