2. The soil Ligustrum lucidum is barren-tolerant, and has low requirements on soil and strong adaptability. As long as it is loose, breathable and easy to drain, it can be mixed with garden soil, humus soil and sandy soil or used alone.
3. The root system of the upper basin of Ligustrum lucidum is developed, so you can choose a medium-sized flowerpot. After survival, you can change it into a shallow basin to watch. Materials include earthenware pots, pottery pots, purple sand pots, plastic pots and porcelain pots.
4, light and temperature lobular Ligustrum lucidum is slightly resistant to shade, and should generally be placed in a sunny and ventilated place; In summer, you should shade yourself properly and don't expose yourself to the sun; It is slightly cold-resistant in winter, but it should be placed in a sunny place indoors in the northern region.
5. The watered Ligustrum lucidum has poor drought tolerance. After watering the root water, keep the basin soil moist. Generally, it can germinate and spread leaves in about half a month, and then enter normal management. The principle of watering is "keep wet and water thoroughly". In summer, there is more and more water and the temperature is getting lower and lower. In winter, it is suggested to maintain indoors in the north, reduce the watering times appropriately, and let Ligustrum lucidum adapt to the new environment. The general principle is not to accumulate water.
6. Fertilization Ligustrum lucidum likes fertilizer. Proper fertilization can promote the growth of branches and leaves, and the leaves are green. It can be applied alternately with cake fertilizer and potassium dihydrogen phosphate in the growing season, once every 10 day, and the effect is good.
7, shaping and pruning Ligustrum lucidum has strong germination and fast growth. From the spring before recovery, branches can grow to be close to the thickness of pencils, and in June they are more than a foot long. Therefore, it is appropriate to control its growth, pick unnecessary buds in time in spring, and cut off 1-2 nodes at the top after new branches develop to prevent excessive growth. Usually pay attention to pruning redundant branches and long branches at any time to keep the tree shape. According to the modeling scheme designed by ourselves, the banding starts from the lowest branch and works up step by step. After each branch is tied, cut it short as needed. Ligustrum microphyllum grows fast, so it should be cut as short as possible when it is cut, so that it can be pruned many times in the future to form a beautiful tree.
8. Diseases and pests of Ligustrum lucidum rarely occur. Common pests include scale insects, aphids and longicorn beetles. , can spray 80% dichlorvos 1500 times, and can also scrub scale insects. Ligustrum microphyllum is also prone to yellowing of leaves, which is mostly caused by iron deficiency (symptoms: short plant shape, yellow-green mesophyll in tender parts, green veins on leaves), and ferrous sulfate can be supplemented appropriately when fertilizing.
9. Ligustrum lucidum grows rapidly, and it should be turned at least once every two years, preferably in spring and autumn. When turning over pots, the old roots of 1/3 should be cut off and replaced with the common old soil, so as to promote the robust growth of Ligustrum lucidum.
