1, basin soil
When breeding, it is best to use porcelain pots, pottery pots, pottery pots or plastic pots. The size of flowerpots should be similar to that of plants, so as to avoid being too big or too small. The soil should be breathable enough, and it is best to have some drainage, because plants are very afraid of water accumulation, and poor drainage has an impact on plant growth.
water
Yushu needs a lot of water in the growth stage, so it is necessary to keep the soil slightly moist to avoid the basin soil being too dry. The weather is hot in summer, and the amount of watering can be more, but attention should be paid to ventilation, and the maintenance environment should not be too stuffy. After late autumn, it is necessary to slowly control the amount of water and cultivate the soil slightly dry.
3. Temperature
The suitable temperature for plant growth is between 20-30℃, and the temperature in spring and autumn is more suitable. The temperature of the conservation environment should not be too high, otherwise the plants will temporarily stop growing. Proper heat preservation is needed in winter, and the temperature should be adjusted above 7℃. Too low temperature will affect the overwintering of plants.
Second, the pruning method
1, short cut: Yushu should be properly pruned during dormancy, and the long branches should be cut short, and the remaining branches only need about 10-25cm.
2, diseased branches: the branches that have been sick should be pruned at the first time, which is a very important step, otherwise it will infect other branches and leaves. When diseased branches are found during breeding, they should be cut off immediately at any stage.
3. Sparse: During the maintenance period, its nutrient supply may be uneven, so there will be dense branches and leaves. For this kind of density, we should do a good job of thinning. The purpose is to make this plant grow more evenly and beautifully.
4, disorderly branches: in order to increase its ornamental, it is necessary to cut off the branches and leaves that affect the appearance, especially those branches and leaves that cross and grow in disorder, depending on the specific situation.
Extended data:
Matters needing attention in cultivating Yushu:
1. First of all, Yushu grows rapidly. Change pots every spring, add rich soil and keep them in sunny places for maintenance.
2. Apply thin fat water once every 10 day and a half, and water it once every 2 ~ 3 days to achieve both wet and dry purposes. When the summer is hot, the swallows' palms are in a semi-dormant state, for fear that strong light will burn the leaves. At this time, it is necessary to do a good job of shading maintenance. summer
3. Stop fertilizing in season and pay attention to ventilation to prevent the leaves from turning yellow and falling off. If it rains heavily, avoid heavy rain and showers to avoid root death.
4. 10 From August to June, the autumn turns cold and the swallows' claws begin to grow again. It is necessary to strengthen the lighting again and remove the shading equipment. Fertilization and watering at this time are the same as in spring.
Before the first frost enters the greenhouse, put it in a sunny place indoors, stop fertilizing and water less. Basically, water is poured once every half month, and the amount of water is half that of summer.
6, winter is not cold, the temperature should be kept above 7℃. Prune once a year, change pots in spring or enter the greenhouse in late autumn to keep the plant shape elegant all year round.
