Bodhi tree breeding methods and matters needing attention
Looking at the withered linden tree potted plants on the window sill, are you also troubled? This kind of plant, which symbolizes wisdom, should be full of vitality, but many flower friends always step in the pit during the maintenance process. Today, let's talk about those neglected maintenance details to rejuvenate your Bodhi tree with its spiritual beauty. 1. The golden rule of watering Don't let love turn into harm. Most people know that Bodhi trees like to wet, but they often commit two extremes: either frequent watering leads to rotten roots, or long-term drought leads to fallen leaves. The correct approach is to keep the soil slightly moist in spring and summer, and follow the principle of "seeing dry, seeing wet" in autumn and winter. Here's a tip: Insert a bamboo stick into the soil in the basin for 2 minutes and pull it out. If the moisture level is not enough, you need to replenish water. 2. The art of nutrient supply is the key to thin fertilizer and diligent application. Many flower lovers mistakenly believe that more fertilization can promote growth, but the result will burn the roots. In fact, the Bodhi tree only needs to be applied with diluted organic liquid fertilizer once every half of the month, which is like feeding a baby. Note that when the temperature is below 12℃ or above 30℃, any fertilizer supply must be stopped. 3. Control of temperature wisdom and balance of alternating cold and warm Although the Bodhi tree is cold-resistant, continued low temperatures will affect the germination of new buds. In winter, it can be moved to a bright place indoors and kept above 10℃. There is an interesting phenomenon: the waxy layer of the leaves of Bodhi trees grown in an environment with a temperature difference of 15-25℃ will thicken, naturally forming a "protective armor" that resists pests and diseases. 4. The magic effect of light and shadow. Hidden skills for rotating the basin. The balcony facing southeast is the most suitable place. Remember to rotate the basin 45 degrees every week. This not only avoids the "yin and yang face" phenomenon, but also allows the leaves to undergo uniform photosynthesis. Shades should be properly shaded at noon in summer, otherwise sunburn spots will appear on the leaves, just like being "tattooed" by the sun.
Raising a Bodhi tree is like cultivating the mind, which requires patient observation and moderate adjustment. Now check your maintenance methods: Are you paying too much attention? Does it violate the laws of nature? Keep these points in mind, and after three months you will be pleasantly surprised to find that not only plants are growing, but your own conservation wisdom is also quietly growing.
