Instead of frequent but superficial irrigation, plants are provided with regular and abundant. So they have time to be well saturated with moisture, while the land between waterings has time to dry, which does not allow the roots to rot.
Water the flowers you need at the root. If the water gets into the sinuses of the shoots - they will start to rot. If the water gets on the buds, they will lose their aesthetic appearance.
Soil between flowers turns into a dense crust. It occurs regularly after good watering, when the earth dries and hardens. The resulting crust does not allow air to flow to the roots of plants, which is why they develop worse. Therefore, between irrigations, the soil is loosened, providing air access to the root system.
Regularly removing weeds is needed only while the majors have bloomed. Small plants are not able to absorb all the nutrients and moisture from the soil if weeds are growing nearby. It takes nutrients, quickly grows and inhibits flowers. But as soon as tsiniya grew, they are not afraid of weeds.

The ripening of the seed box lasts quite a long time - 50-60 days from the moment of flowering. If during the period of plant care the flower growers cut off the withered flower heads, then during the period of seed preparation the seed pods of strong and large plants are preserved. They can be interrupted only when they are fully matured.
Seeds are best collected from the top of a large flower. It is cut with scissors after aging and dried. After the seeds are crushed into an envelope, signed and stored during the winter.
