How to Repot丁香花
Whether newly purchased丁香花 can survive smoothly depends crucially on the potting operation and post-potting care. Mastering scientific transplanting methods and combining them with appropriate growth environment adjustments can help the plant quickly adapt to the new environment and burst into fragrant blooms.
Ⅰ. Full Process Analysis of Repotting丁香花
1. Pre-treatment for Plant Removal from Pot
For plants in the original pot, water control should be carried out 3-5 days in advance, gently tapping the pot wall until the soil separates. Bare-root seedlings should be placed in a shaded area, with the roots wrapped in moist moss. Tilt the pot at a 45-degree angle, supporting the junction of the stem and roots with one hand, and rotate to remove the soil clod with the other hand.
2. Fine Root Treatment
Use a bamboo skewer to remove 1/3 of the old soil, preserving the protective soil. Retain the main roots at a length of 15cm, and cut off all blackened and rotting fine roots. Soak in a 1000-fold potassium permanganate solution for 20 minutes, then wait until the root surface is slightly damp before potting.
3. Scientific Matrix Preparation
Recommended formula: 5 parts of decomposed leaf soil + 3 parts of coarse river sand + 2 parts of bone meal. Keep the pH value between 5.5-6.5, and add sulfur powder to adjust the acidity and alkalinity. Place a 5cm thick layer of ceramic stones at the bottom of the pot to enhance drainage.
4. Key Points for Transplanting and Planting
Choose a purple sand pot with a depth ≥ 30cm, and fill soil up to 1/3 of the pot height. Place the plant in the pot, keeping the root neck level with the pot rim, and gently lift the plant while filling the soil. After planting, water thoroughly, and you can add root-promoting powder to the water to encourage root growth.
Ⅱ. Daily Maintenance System for丁香花
1. Environmental Transition Management
During the seedling stage, maintain an ambient temperature of 18-25°C and an air humidity of 60%-70%. For the first 7 days, provide 70% shading, transition to 50% shading in the second week, and resume full sunlight in the third week. Avoid direct strong winds, and set up wind barriers if necessary.
2. Precise Water and Fertilizer Control
In spring and autumn, water thoroughly every 5-7 days, and spray water in the morning and evening in summer. Apply phosphorus-potassium fertilizer (N-P-K=5-10-10) every half-month during the growing season, and add boron fertilizer before flowering. Stop fertilizing and control water in winter, keeping the soil slightly dry.
3. Pruning and Shaping Strategy
Immediately after flowering, remove the残花, leaving 2 pairs of buds at the base. Thin out crossing and dense branches to keep the tree crown open. When shaping, use the oblique cut method and apply healing agent to the cut surface to prevent infection.
Through scientific repotting and systematic maintenance, the survival rate of丁香花 can reach 95% or more. Regularly observe the leaf condition and adjust the maintenance plan in a timely manner, and you will harvest a fragrant plant with flourishing flowers and leaves.
