Golden diamond likes fertile, loose and well-drained slightly acidic soil. Potted plants can be mixed with humus soil (or peat soil), garden soil and river sand in the same amount as the cultivation substrate, and some hoof horns or oil residue can be put on the bottom of the pot as the base fertilizer when the pot is put or changed. From the beginning of cultivating seedlings, we should pay attention to plastic surgery, tie up the scattered branches and leaves, and then loosen them when they grow up. Make use of the phototaxis of new leaves and often rotate the flowerpot.
2. Fertilization method of gold diamond culture
Potted plants can be cultivated with humus soil or peat soil and a small amount of river sand. Too much fertilizer should not be applied. Generally, thin fertilizer water should be applied 1 ~ 2 times a month or long-acting flower fertilizer should be applied every 1 month. Too much fertilizer will make the petiole soft and droop, which will affect the ornamental effect. Stop fertilizing in winter.
In the growing season, some dilute liquid or long-acting flower fertilizer can be applied once every two months; Excessive fertilization will cause the petiole to be soft, bent and drooping, which will reduce the ornamental value. Apply little or no fertilizer in winter.
3. The watering method of gold diamond cultivation
Water the golden diamond during the growth period, spray water on the leaves to keep the air moist, and apply long-acting flower fertilizer every two months from May to September. Usually apply some dilute liquid fertilizer. In winter, when watering is controlled and fertilization is stopped to cultivate small L, in order to prevent the leaves from spreading excessively, the leaves can be propped up and shaped, and then gradually loosened after the leaves grow out.
It grows vigorously in summer, which requires greater air humidity and sufficient water. Always spray water on the leaves to keep the soil moist, but no water is allowed. In winter, diamonds are in a dormant state, so water them less to be "dry but not wet". If you water too much, it will rot the roots, lead to slow growth or stop growth, and then lead to yellowing and falling off the leaves. The temperature is gradually decreasing in winter, so the watering frequency should be reduced. Although diamond likes high temperature and high humidity, it has strong adaptability to indoor dry environment in northern winter.
4. Temperature requirements for cultivation of gold diamonds
Golden diamond likes high temperature and high humidity climate, the optimum growth temperature is 20 ~ 25℃, it is cold-resistant and can overwinter at around 20℃. The overwintering temperature is better than 8℃, and the lowest temperature is 5℃.
5. Lighting requirements for gold diamond planting
Gold diamonds are not strict with light, and generally grow well except in extremely weak light environment. Especially suitable for indoor cultivation; However, direct sunlight should be avoided in summer and autumn to avoid burning the leaves. When the diamond is maintained indoors, it should be placed in a place with bright scattered light and uniform illumination, and the direction of the basin should be changed regularly to avoid the crown of the plant.
6. Modeling method of gold diamond planting
Golden diamond grows fast. By adjusting water, fertilizer, light and humidity, it can grow 3 -5 leaves a year. In the growth process, according to the length of the petiole, the brackets are tied respectively. Generally, the long petiole is short and the back petiole is long, which can be arranged at any time, that is, short stalks and long stalks are connected in series in a string, so that the leaves are interdependent on more than two horizontal planes, each layer is like an umbrella, and the crown of the whole plant is like a tower. After a simple combination of petiole and leaf shape, its ornamental effect can be icing on the cake. Or use the phototaxis principle of new leaves to rotate the flowerpot whenever new leaves grow, so that the palm of the new leaves faces the light source and the petiole develops towards the center, and does not grow loosely around, thus cultivating a compact, handsome and charming golden diamond.
