How to raise a cash cow? As we all know, cash cow is a common green plant in home decoration. Here, we will introduce the breeding methods and precautions of cash cow. I hope that all flower friends can master the correct breeding methods and raise beautiful cash cows as soon as possible!
How to raise a cash cow 1 how to raise a cash cow?
The cash cow needs a mixture of peat soil, coarse sand and garden soil as the matrix. Generally, water is poured once every 7 ~ 10 days, and it is good to apply nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer three times a month when the growth is vigorous. Moreover, it is necessary to prune the money tree properly in autumn. If diseases and insect pests occur in the growth process, it is necessary to keep ventilation and spray chemicals to prevent and control them, and cuttings can be used for propagation.
1, select soil
Cash cows need to grow in slightly acidic soil, preferably loose soil. Generally, peat soil can be used as the cultivation substrate of cash cow, but in fact, some coarse sand and garden soil can be added in a proper amount to provide nutrients in time and make cash cow grow more vigorously.
2. Water and fertilizer management
When it comes to the cultivation methods of cash cows, in fact, cash cows don't require high water. Generally, it is good to water them once every 7 ~ 10. However, if the temperature is too low, it is necessary to reduce the amount of watering,/kloc-water once every 5 ~ 20 days. Generally, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are applied three times a month when the growth is vigorous, and no fertilization is needed when the temperature is lower than 15℃.
3, appropriate pruning
We must give light to the cash cow when planting it, otherwise it will grow in vain. We need to prune it properly every autumn, cut off the useless branches and leaves of the cash cow, and prune it properly to increase its ornamental value and make it grow better.
4, pest control
Cash cow is prone to brown spot disease, white silk disease and other pests every year, which not only affects the ornamental value of the plant, but may even make it wither and die. Once the money tree is found to have diseases and pests, it is necessary to immediately cut off the diseased branches and leaves and spray drugs such as chlorothalonil and carbendazim for disinfection.
5. Cutting
First, pick a twig with 2 ~ 3 leaflets at 10 ~ 15 cm to prepare a loose soil. After the branch wound is healed, insert it into the prepared soil, put it in a cool place and spray water into the soil, and control the temperature at 25℃ to make the branches of the money tree take root.
Cultivation methods of cash cow II. Cultivation method of cash cow
First, seedlings
1, ramet
Take the plant of Euphorbia fischeriana out of the flowerpot, shake off most of the soil, break it from the weak joints between tubers, coat the wound with sulfur powder or plant ash, and plant it in the flowerpot alone.
Step 2 cut
A cash cow cutting can be a single small leaf, a leaf shaft with two leaves and a single leaf shaft. Judging from the rooting effect, the cuttings with leaves on the leaf axis have fast rooting speed and high germination rate.
Second, the soil
Good permeability is required. Peat, coarse sand or washed cinder is mixed with a small amount of garden soil, and its PH value is adjusted to 6 ~ 6.5, which is slightly acidic.
Third, about the basin.
Don't bury it too deep when planting, just bury the top of its tuber under the soil 1.5 ~ 2 cm.
Nursing care of cash cow
1, water
Money trees are drought-tolerant, so they can be watered dry before watering. The principle of watering in different seasons is: water for half a month in winter, 1 time a week in spring and autumn, and water for three days 1 time in summer (water spraying can also be used instead of watering, especially in cold winter). Don't water too much each time, because watering too much will also affect the normal growth of cash cows, which may seriously lead to the death of root trees. In addition, the pot soil cultivated by cash cow should not be too wet, and it is better to be dry. Too wet pot soil can also cause the roots of plants to rot easily.
Step 2 apply fertilizer
Money-spinners love fertilization. Besides adding proper fertilizer when planting, they can be applied once a month during the growing season. However, fertilization is not suitable in winter to avoid fertilizer damage and root damage under low temperature conditions.
Step 3 change pots and soil
Money tree has huge tubers, well-developed roots and long pinnate compound leaves, so it is necessary to observe the growing season more and change the pot soil in time according to its growth. In addition, if there is water in the basin, it is necessary to turn over the basin in time to change the soil.
4. Temperature control
The normal growth temperature of cash cow is 25 ~ 32℃, too high or too low is not conducive to the growth of cash cow. When the temperature exceeds 35℃, the cash cow will stop growing, and when it is below 5℃, it will freeze to death. It is safe and reliable to keep the temperature between 8℃ and 10℃ in winter.
5. Utilization ratio of light energy
Cash cow is a kind of culture that likes light and tolerates shade. We should create a sunny and cool environment for it in the process of cultivation. Like all indoor flowers, the cultivation of money tree should avoid strong light and direct sunlight, especially when it is sunny after rain in early summer and around noon in summer, otherwise it will be burned.
Step 6 control pests and diseases
In the aspect of pest control in the breeding of money tree, thiophanate-methyl suspension 1500 times solution and Lei Mier 1000 times solution can be used alternately on weekdays for disinfection, bulb rot and brown spot. When the cash cow grows in an environment with poor ventilation and poor light, its leaves are more vulnerable to scale insects, and 20 {BF} chlorpyrifos wettable powder can be sprayed 1000 times.
Problems needing attention in cash cow breeding
1, cash cows should be planted when the temperature is above 18. You can break a place in the weak combination of tubers and plant it in a prepared flowerpot. Don't bury it too deep. Just bury the top of the tuber in the soil 1.5 ~ 2 cm. It is best to apply sulfur powder or plant ash to the broken place.
When the temperature is high in summer, you need to move indoors to a cool place and spray more water on the leaves of plants to reduce the temperature. However, when the room temperature is lower than 5 degrees in winter, it will endanger the growth of plants, and anti-freezing measures should be taken in time.
3. Cash cow is a plant that likes light and is tolerant of shade. Not suitable for growth in strong light. It's best to put it in a sheltered place next to the window, so that you can fully contact the sun and won't burn the leaves because of exposure. The best shading effect is 60 {BF}, and the leaves will turn yellow if it is too dark.
Its growth needs better soil. The soil should be not only loose and fertile, but also rich in organic matter, which is acidic to slightly acidic.
5. Keep the soil slightly dry. Because of its high drought tolerance, it is advisable to keep the basin soil slightly dry at ordinary times. When the temperature is above 34 degrees, it is best to water it once a day, and water it as little as possible in autumn and winter. You can spray the leaves of plants instead of watering them.
6. Fertilize twice a month when the temperature is above 15. Because Sandy trees prefer chemical fertilizers, they can be fertilized twice a month during the growing season. The most convenient fertilization option is to buy fertilizer specially for Sandy trees, which is available at the flower market. If chemical fertilizer is used, urea with 0. 1 {BF} potassium dihydrogen phosphate mixture should be selected. People are also curious about where to put the cash cow. It is said that putting it in the right place can also bring wealth!
