As people become more and more interested in green plants, indoor planting has become a fashion, and rubber trees are one of the most popular plants. However, many people don't know how to plant rubber trees indoors. This article will introduce the secrets of planting rubber trees indoors from three aspects: conditions, maintenance skills and precautions.
1. Conditions-Choosing a suitable environment When choosing to plant rubber trees indoors, the first thing to consider is environmental conditions. In general, rubber trees require sufficient sunshine and a well-ventilated environment, so it is best to place them in a room with sufficient sunshine and good ventilation.
2. Conditions-Pay attention to temperature and humidity In addition to sunshine and air, temperature and humidity are also important factors affecting the growth of rubber trees. Rubber trees are sensitive to temperature, and the most suitable temperature for growth is 18 ℃ to 25 ℃. At the same time, attention should be paid to avoid extreme high temperatures and low temperatures. In addition, rubber trees have higher requirements on humidity. The most suitable humidity for growth is 50% to 70%, which can be maintained by increasing drinking water, spraying, etc.
3. Conditions-Suitable basin soil Suitable basin soil is also a key factor affecting the growth of rubber trees. In general, rubber trees are suitable for growing in nutrient-rich and well-drained soil. If the soil is too dry or the drainage is not smooth, it may easily lead to poor plant growth or root rot.
4. Conditions-Pay attention to the choice of pots When planting rubber trees, it is also very important to choose the appropriate pots. It is recommended to choose a pot with a larger diameter so that the root system of the rubber tree can stretch better. At the same time, the material of the basin is preferably ceramic or plastic products to avoid corrosion or pollution problems.
5. Conditions-Appropriate fertilization Appropriate fertilization is also an important link in the growth process of rubber trees. It is recommended to apply fertilizer at the right time during the plant growth and breeding periods. The amount of fertilizer applied at each time should not be too much. It is best to choose organic fertilizer or liquid fertilizer.
6. Maintenance Chapter-Regular pruning When planting rubber trees indoors, regular pruning is also an indispensable maintenance measure. Pruning helps rubber trees maintain their beautiful shape and also facilitates their growth and development.
7. Maintenance Chapter-Properly controlling the amount of irrigation properly controlling the amount of irrigation is also a problem that needs to be paid attention to when planting rubber trees indoors. Since rubber trees have a high demand for water, they are also susceptible to excessive watering, so they need to be adjusted according to actual conditions.
8. Maintenance Chapter-Insect and disease prevention are also issues that need attention during the growth of rubber trees. Some pests and diseases can cause serious harm to rubber trees, so regular inspections and timely removal of pests and diseases are very necessary.
9. Maintenance Chapter-Avoid excessive movement When planting rubber trees indoors, excessive movement is not advisable. Rubber trees are sensitive to environmental changes, and if they move frequently, they can easily cause poor growth or death.
10. Precautions-Avoid direct strong light During the growth process of rubber trees, you need to avoid direct strong light. Direct exposure to strong light will cause the rubber tree leaves to wither and fall off, so it is necessary to choose an appropriate position to place them.
11. Precautions-Avoid leaf pollution. The leaves of rubber trees easily absorb dust and dirt, so they need to be cleaned regularly. At the same time, attention should also be paid to avoid contamination of leaves with oil, pigments and other substances.
12. Precautions-Preventing children from accidentally eating When planting rubber trees, care should be taken to prevent children from accidentally eating the leaves or fruits of rubber trees. Rubber trees contain toxic substances, which can easily cause problems such as poisoning.
13. Precautions-Avoid contact with pets If there are pets at home, you need to pay attention to avoid contact with rubber trees. The leaves and fruits of rubber trees contain toxic substances and can easily cause harm to pets.
14. Precautions-Pay attention to dormant period Rubber trees also have dormant periods. At this time, it is necessary to reduce watering and fertilization appropriately to avoid excessive drying or excessive wetting.
15. Chapter 15-How to maintain indoor rubber trees When planting rubber trees indoors, you need to pay attention to selecting the right environment, maintaining the right temperature and humidity, selecting the right pot soil and pots, properly fertilizing, regularly pruning, Control irrigation amount, insect prevention and disease prevention, etc. At the same time, attention should also be paid to avoid problems such as direct light, leaf pollution, accidental eating by children, contact with pets and dormant periods. Only by taking these maintenance measures can rubber trees grown indoors grow healthily.
