Breeding methods and precautions in kaempina
As a characteristic plant that can be used for both medicine and food, the leaves of Kaempi stretch like jade, and the tuber of Sarangal exudes a unique spicy fragrance. However, many flower lovers often encounter problems such as slow growth and scorched leaves during the maintenance process. By mastering these key maintenance links, the water can flourish in the family environment. The three factors of growth environment in kaempi are the key to selecting soil substrates. The roots of kaempi prefer a soft and breathable growth environment. It is recommended to use river sand, leaf soil, and perlite in a ratio of 4:3:3, and lay 3cm broken tiles on the bottom layer to enhance drainage. Add bone meal to supplement phosphorus when turning pots every spring, which can increase the weight of tubers by 30%. The intelligent water and fertilizer management method adopts the watering principle of "seeing dry, seeing wet". Water is poured every three days in spring and autumn, and sprayed in the morning and evening to increase humidity in summer. Diluted fish intestine fertilizer was applied every month during the growing period, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate was applied instead to promote tuber expansion in September. Pay special attention to the need to erect canopy during the rainy season to prevent stagnant water and root rot. The light and temperature control plan is for full sunshine maintenance in spring and winter, and a sunshade net is required to filter 40% of the light from May to September. Maintain the optimal growth temperature of 18-28℃, and move it indoors when it is below 10℃ in winter. Using a thermohygrometer for monitoring, 60% air humidity can be maintained through a humidifier. Kawasaki propagation and modeling skills Tuber rationing procedures Select a 3-year-old mother plant, and cut the tubers into 3-cm pieces with bud eyes before and after Qingming Festival. After applying plant ash to the incision and drying for 12 hours, insert it obliquely into a vermiculite matrix at 45°, cover it with plastic wrap to maintain humidity. New buds can be seen to germinate in about 15 days. Artistic modeling pruning method Trim the yellow outer leaves every month during the peak growth season, retaining 5-7 new leaves in the center. Retraction pruning is used to control the height of the plant, and aluminum wire coiling is used to create a cliff-style bonsai. Spray carbendazim immediately after pruning to prevent infection. Breeding methods and precautions in kaempina Integrated pest control system Biological control of leaf spot disease Remove diseased leaves at the early stage of the disease and spray garlic extract (1:20) once a week. In severe cases, root irrigation with 500 times solution of Bacillus subtilis and enhanced ventilation can effectively control the spread of the disease. Physical barrier solution for rat pests Install a 30-cm-high smooth metal plate on the periphery of the planting box, and provide ultrasonic rat repellers at intervals. After discovering signs of gnawing, place a cotton ball with peppermint oil in the corner. This natural rat repellent has an effective rate of 85%. Key points for four-season management in the water harvest tubers before frost falls, and store them in layers with coarse river sand in a cool place. Keep the pot soil moist in winter, and rotate the pot every month to ensure even light reception. In spring, pots are changed in conjunction with ramets, and new organic substrates are added to reserve nutrients for the growing season.
From medicinal cultivation to kitchen seasoning, the water shows multiple values. Through the three core strategies of precise regulation of the soil environment, scientific implementation of water and fertilizer management, and timely prevention and control of pests and diseases, and in conjunction with seasonal maintenance adjustments, even novices can cultivate healthy plants with strong aroma. Regularly observe the status of the plants and record growth logs. You will gradually master the cultivation essence of this characteristic plant.
