The suitable growth temperature of Cycas in winter is about 5- 10℃. Cycas have poor cold resistance, so they are also afraid of freezing in winter, and they need to keep warm and cold in winter. If the cycad doesn't freeze to death in winter, if the tree is not big enough to move indoors, if the plant is big, you can fold the leaves, then tie them with ropes and wrap them with straw. Pay attention to make holes with plastic and plastic paper outside, so as not to be stabbed to death. Breathe.
Winter maintenance method of cycad
Temperature: Cycas is not cold-resistant, so attention should be paid to winter maintenance. When the temperature of the growing environment is low, it should be moved indoors in time, and the temperature should be controlled above 5 degrees to avoid frostbite. Lighting: Cycas likes light, so it is necessary to give sufficient lighting during maintenance, especially in winter. Because the light intensity is weak, we can receive as much sunlight as possible. Only in this way can it thrive. Watering: Because Cycas grows slowly in winter, the evaporation of water in the soil is also reduced. Therefore, when watering the Cycas, we must reduce the amount of water, look at the surface of the basin soil and keep it slightly dry. Sunbathing: Cycas can bask in the sun in winter because Cycas itself likes light. Especially in winter, we should pay attention to giving it enough light, which is conducive to a smooth winter.
Matters needing attention in winter cultivation of Cycas
1. When planting Cycas in winter, pay attention to pruning. Old leaves and yellow leaves can be cut once every once in a while, and leaves that are too dense should also be trimmed together to avoid unnecessary waste of nutrition. 2. If you want to raise Cycas indoors in winter, you must move it indoors and let it bask in the sun, so that the leaves will be greener. In addition, pay attention to its growth rate will be much slower in winter, and its water consumption will be reduced, so it is necessary to reduce watering. A little dry soil is good for winter. 3. Cycas usually blooms only once every 10 year. Therefore, we should choose good soil and give plenty of sunshine in winter planting. Water and fertilizer are the key, and you need to keep warm in winter. You should also pay attention to turning over pots and changing soil, shaping and pruning, so as to plant flowers.
