You can mix materials such as decayed leaf soil, garden soil, and river sand in a certain proportion to increase the soil's breathability and drainage. You can add an appropriate amount of decomposed organic fertilizer to the soil to provide sufficient nutrients for the peach trees.Lighting and temperaturePeach trees like light but avoid direct sunlight. When cultivating indoors, the pot should be placed in a place with sufficient scattered light to avoid direct sunlight. In terms of temperature, the suitable temperature for peach trees to grow is between 15-25℃, and the temperature should not be lower than 5℃ in winter.Watering and fertilizingThe watering of indoor peach trees should follow the principle of "watering when dry and keeping the soil slightly moist". In the hot summer season, the frequency of watering can be increased appropriately. In terms of fertilizing, apply a compound or organic fertilizer once a month to promote the growth of peach trees.Pruning and pest and disease controlDuring the growth of indoor peach trees, pruning should be done in time to remove diseased, weak, and dry branches and maintain a beautiful tree shape. It is necessary to check for pests and diseases regularly, and once found, take measures to control them in a timely manner.Propagation methodsThe main propagation methods for indoor peach trees are grafting and cutting. Grafting involves grafting peach branches onto other peach trees to quickly propagate good varieties, while cutting involves inserting peach branches into the soil and transplanting them after they have rooted.Although indoor peach tree cultivation has some difficulties, as long as the correct cultivation methods are mastered, one can grow beautiful peach trees at home.
