How to water large-leaf green radish
As a star player in the indoor green plant industry, large-leaf green radish has become the first choice for many plant lovers because of its elegant vine shape and powerful air purification ability. However, to grow green radish with bright leaves and strong vines, it is particularly important to master scientific watering methods and systematic maintenance techniques. This article will explain in detail the three core maintenance points from a practical perspective. Scientific watering techniques for large-leaf green radish accurately irrigates the dual channel using the "pot soil + brown column" dual water replenishing method: slowly inject water along the edge of the flower pot until the bottom of the pot is permeable, and at the same time, pour the brown column from top to bottom. It is recommended to use a long-spout pot to accurately control the amount of water to avoid stagnant water in the leaf core. Keep watering twice a week in spring and autumn. In summer, it can be increased to three times but reduce the amount of water each time. In winter, it can be changed to once every 10 days. Three principles of intelligent water control 1. Temperature monitoring method: Increase the spray frequency above 25℃, strictly control water below 15℃ 2. Pot soil detection method: Insert your index finger into the soil 2cm before watering if there is no moisture. 3. Weather adjustment method: postpone watering on rainy days, add foliar spray in air-conditioned rooms, large-leaf green radish system breeding plan, light control guide, set a golden position 1.5 meters away from the east-facing window to ensure 4 hours of soft light exposure every day. Use gauze curtains to filter light in strong light environments, and turn the flowerpot 180° every two weeks when there is insufficient light. Note that if the new leaves are smaller than the old leaves, it means that additional light is needed. Nutritional management plan During the growth period (March to October), special slow-release fertilizer for green radish is applied every month, combined with a 1:1000 dilution of leaf viewing plant nutrient solution once every two weeks. Use potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution (1:1500) to enhance cold resistance in winter. Water must be watered within 6 hours after fertilization to promote absorption. Temperature control points keep the temperature difference between day and night within 5℃ and no lower than 15℃ at night. In winter, triple insulation methods can be used: flowerpot covered with insulation cotton + brown column wrapped with plastic wrap + placed in a foam box. In floor heating environments, you must use a flowerpot stand with pulleys to keep the bottom of the pot more than 20cm away from the ground. Special precautions for green radish maintenance The winter protection system has established a "three prevention" mechanism: preventing cold wind (away from gaps between doors and windows), preventing drying (used with a humidifier), and preventing stuffy roots (loosening soil once a month). Immediately check the distance between the heating equipment and lay an insulation layer with ceramite when the leaf edges are found to be scorched. Disease prevention strategy Regularly wipe the leaves with beer diluent (1:20) to remove dust and prevent red spiders. Spray carbendazim solution before the rainy season, and sprinkle cinnamon powder on the surface of the basin soil to prevent mold. Change the pot immediately if you find rotten roots, keep healthy air, take root, soak in the rooting agent, and plant them again.
Through systematic maintenance and management, large-leaf green radish can not only remain evergreen all year round, but also achieve strong growth of vines of 1.5-2 meters per year. It is recommended to establish a maintenance log to record the time of each watering and fertilization and the response of the plants, and gradually form a personalized maintenance plan. When the plant experiences phenomena such as new leaves continue to shrink and the spacing between nodes is lengthened, light and nutrient supply strategies must be adjusted in time.
