What are the cultivation methods and watering methods of Fortune Tree
Xiaobian will tell you about the cultivation methods and watering methods of Fortune Tree and what flowers are. Next, I will let you understand them together.
As a common indoor ornamental green plant, Fortune Tree is widely loved because of its auspicious meaning and simple maintenance. In order to achieve the cultivation effect of lush branches and leaves and beautiful shape, it is necessary to master scientific breeding skills and watering methods. The following are detailed operating guidelines: ###1. Scientific cultivation method of Fortune Tree 1. - - Basin soil configuration-Select a pottery basin or a green mountain basin with good air permeability, and the bottom of the basin needs to have drainage holes. The soil is mixed in the ratio of legular soil: garden soil: river sand =5:3:2, and 5% decomposed sheep manure is added as base fertilizer. In the northern region, it is recommended to add 0.1% sulfur powder to adjust the pH to 6.0-6.5. 2. - - Light management-It is suitable for placing it in a scattered light environment 1.5 meters away from the south window, and needs to be blocked by 50% in summer. Rotate the flowerpot 180° every two weeks to avoid misaligned crown. Full sunshine can be accepted in winter. When there is insufficient light, a 12W plant fill light can be used to irradiate it for 6 hours a day. 3. - - Temperature control-The suitable temperature for growth is 18-30℃, and falling leaves will be caused below 10℃. In winter, it is necessary to keep the room temperature above 12℃, and pine phosphorus can be laid on the surface of the basin soil for insulation. When the temperature exceeds 35℃ in summer, spray should be applied to the leaves to cool down. 4. - - Fertilization plan-Apply 1000-fold diluted leaf viewing plant nutrient solution every 15 days during the growth period (April to September). In October, potassium dihydrogen phosphate (1:1500) was used to promote lignification of branches. Be careful to water immediately after fertilizing to avoid burning roots.### 2. Technical points for precise watering 1. - - Water quality selection-It is best to use tap water or purified water that has been dried for 3 days, and the EC value should be less than 0.8ms/cm. In northern areas, 0.5 g/L citric acid can be added to soften water quality. 2. - - Watering judgment criteria- - ·The soil on the top 3 cm is completely dry·The weight of the pot soil is reduced by 1/3 ·The leaves appear slightly wilted (only for old leaves) 3. - - Seasonal watering strategy Spring (March-May): - -Pour thoroughly once a week to maintain the substrate humidity of 40% - -Summer (June-August): - -Pour thoroughly every 5 days + spray on the leaves, maintain the humidity of 60% - -Autumn (September-November): - -Pour thoroughly in 10-12 days, reduce the humidity to 30%- -Winter (December-February): -Make a small amount of water every month, maintain the substrate humidity of 15% 4. - - Treatment under special circumstances- - ·Remove the pot immediately when water occurs, prune the rotten root system, soak it with carbendazim and replace it with new soil·Humidified trays should be placed in air-conditioned rooms to maintain the air humidity>40%. Newly purchased plants need to be slowed down. Water again after 7 days ###3. Solutions to common problems 1. - - Yellow leaf treatment- -Yellowing of old leaves in the lower layer is normal metabolism. If new leaves turn yellow, check: -Water yellowing: Stop watering and loosen the soil-Drought yellowing: Water immersion method to replenish water-Fertilizer yellowing: Immediately rinse the roots with water 2. - - Response to fallen leaves-Falling leaves caused by sudden changes in temperature should be maintained at a constant temperature of 15 ° C; sick fallen leaves need to be sprayed with 800 times of mancozeb solution, once a week and three times continuously. 3. - - Shape pruning-Cut short branches in March every year and retain 2-3 bud points. Apply healing agent to the wound and control the water for 7 days after pruning.### 4. Disease and insect prevention methods 1. - - Red spider-Spray the back of the leaves with 2000 times liquid of biphenylhydrazate, and increase the environmental humidity by 2. - - Root rot- -When changing pots, mix 3% hymethalin granules to prevent it. After the disease occurs, water the nail cream with 1500 times hymethalin. 3. - - Scale insects-Cotton swabs dipped in 75% alcohol and wiped locally, and when severe, spraying thiamethoxam. Through the above systematic management, the Fortune Tree can achieve an annual growth of 30-50cm. The key is to grasp the watering principle of "better dry than wet", cooperate with appropriate light and regular pot rotation, and usually cultivate high-quality plant types with thick trunk and full crown width within 3 years. Pay attention to observing the state of plants and adjusting maintenance strategies in time can effectively extend the viewing period to 8-10 years.
The above is the cultivation method and watering method of Fortune Tree? I hope to bring a little help to your life!
