Cultivation methods and matters needing attention of tea plum;

1, planting soil Camellia likes loose and slightly acidic soil with good air permeability and rich humus, and humus soil and pine needle soil are generally better. If tea plum is planted in thick, barren and alkaline soil, it will affect the growth and even the whole plant will die slowly.

2. Breeding environment Tea plum likes a semi-shady growth environment, and there is more direct light in autumn and winter, which is conducive to bud flowering. In late spring and early summer, it is necessary to protect the whole plant from sunburn or death.

3. The growth temperature of tea plums is relatively cold-resistant, and the ground planting temperature is kept above minus 8 degrees, so that they can survive the winter smoothly. Potted tea plums are not as hardy as those planted in the ground. When the temperature drops to about 2 degrees below zero, they should be moved to a warm place for maintenance to prevent frostbite or frostbite.

4, watering rules Tea plum likes humidity, but more afraid of drowning, watering depends on wet and dry. In spring, summer and autumn, it is necessary to water the tea plum properly. When raising tea plums in late autumn, winter and early spring, water should be properly controlled and the soil in the basin should be dry. Especially when the temperature is below 5 degrees for a long time, it is very beneficial to water tea plums less.

5. Fertilization management Tea plum likes fertilizer, and applying thin fertilizer frequently during the growth period is conducive to growth and flowering. Spring and early summer are good opportunities for tea plums to sprout, and compound fertilizer should be applied topdressing. Autumn is a good time for tea plum to sprout buds, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be applied topdressing. After winter, when the buds of tea plums are swollen and colored, all fertilization should be stopped.

6, air humidity requirements Tea plum likes a humid growth environment, and the air humidity in the growing season is kept above 50%, which is conducive to growth. If the air humidity is lower than 50% for a long time in the growing season, water can be sprayed on and around the leaves to artificially humidify them. When the temperature is low in winter, the requirement of tea plum on air humidity is low.
