First, what should I pay attention to when cultivating azaleas?
1. Choose piles correctly and handle the root system.
We often dig out the old heap of azalea before germination in spring. When you dig, you should pay attention to the choice of strange shapes, so that the bonsai made is more natural and there are few traces of artificial winding. This bonsai is the top grade. Some friends don't care about the shape when digging, but only the size. In fact, this is a vulgar custom and it is impossible to make beautiful bonsai.
And pay attention to the treatment of root system when digging. Fine roots and velvet roots on the roots of Ardisia azalea are very important, but they play a decisive role in the survival of Ardisia azalea. Be careful when digging, and pay attention to protecting these roots, which is the key to survival. Of course, some roots will be injured when digging, so you must apply medicine casually to prevent bleeding and infection of the wound.
2. Deal with the pile material, keep the pile material fresh and plant it correctly.
After digging, the azaleas should be transported away. We have to cut off too many branches to facilitate transportation. At this time, some friends may not want to see the buds of trees. At this time, we will know the weight. If the bud looks beautiful, it will only increase the burden on plants and affect their survival. In fact, do you still have to worry about flowers after rhododendrons survive? Some friends even cut off all the side branches, leaving only the trunk. As the saying goes, "if you don't strike hard, your survival will be unstable." After dealing with these branches, we have to deal with the wound. The following parts should be covered with moss to keep the pile fresh. It can be said that the freshness of the pile also determines the survival rate.
When planting azaleas, you should pay attention to soaking in water. If dipped in rooting powder, it can stimulate rhododendrons to take root as soon as possible. Only when it has roots can it absorb nutrients and germinate as soon as possible! If we forget to touch the rooting powder, we can pour the rooting powder solution during the curing process. When planting planting materials, you must choose loose and breathable river sand or mix a small amount of mountain soil. The purpose is to keep the planting materials slightly acidic and create a favorite living environment for Yingshanhong. As for the high cultivation and bagging of river sand, you may be familiar with these details. Now let's talk about it again, we must pay attention to it!
Second, the maintenance of Yingshanhong after cultivation is very important. What should I pay attention to?
Yingshanhong cultivates river sand. Proper bagging can keep warm and moisturize and promote survival. Proper maintenance is very important during this period.
1. Pay attention to increase the light slowly.
We know that newly cultivated azaleas can't be exposed to the sun, otherwise the evaporation will be too great and the roots can't supply water. At this time, the azaleas will wither, and then only a little soft light can be seen. After the azaleas germinate, our task is to exercise the buds. At this time, we can make a hole in the plastic bag and gradually increase the light. This can mainly make rhododendrons adapt to the external environment slowly, but it is not suitable to see too much light, especially in early summer.
2. When can I fertilize after germination?
The germination time of Yingshanhong old pile is usually in spring, which is quite mild at this time. Because of germination, it is proved that the roots of azalea have been restored. At this time, you can use a very thin cake fertilizer to pour. After all, raising piles with river sand is not nutritious! Thin cakes can supplement some nutrients, meet the needs of plant growth, have mild fertilizer efficiency and do not harm the roots.
Don't be impatient when fertilizing. Don't use chemical fertilizer, and don't use too thick organic fertilizer, so as not to hurt the weak roots that have just sprouted. Moreover, summer is a period of high temperature and high humidity, and the vitality of azalea is not enough. Be careful not to fertilize, wait patiently! However, you can continue to use some thin fertilizers in early autumn, and pay attention to the use of phosphorus and potassium organic fertilizers in late autumn to enhance your ability to keep out the cold!
3. Ventilate and spray water frequently, and pay attention to dew cultivation.
As we know, Yingshanhong likes cool environment and ventilation. If Yingshanhong wants to have fewer problems, it is necessary to pay attention to more ventilation and frequent ventilation. In addition, azalea is a southern tree species, and especially likes places with high air humidity. Pay more attention to water spraying and humidification at all stages, especially after germination, and water spraying is more important to prevent the bud from shrinking.
In view of this, you'd better give Yingshan Red Dew, which can be bathed in soft light with only a few layers of shading nets attached to it, which is very ventilated. Yingshanhong is hard to be strong!
Step 4 change the soil skillfully
We maintain Yingshanhong to make it strong as soon as possible, but we often use river sand without nutrition when cultivating embryos, so after the branches grow a little higher, we can remove some river sand from the surface of the flowerpot and fill it with some nutrient soil, which will make Yingshanhong strong as soon as possible. As for the big change, it should be after autumn!
Of course, when maintaining azaleas, we should also pay attention to semi-lignification, because azaleas are hard and brittle, and it is too difficult to bind lignified branches in a flat way. We can't miss this opportunity.
Third, summary.
It is particularly interesting to preserve and cultivate rhododendron bonsai. Proper production can increase the interest of life, which is very conducive to self-cultivation. When the azaleas we cultivate are in full bloom, it will be the most beautiful enjoyment! Are your friends excited? Make some!
