Sharing knowledge about what kind of soil to use for potting蜡梅 and the cultivation methods of potting蜡梅, the following is a comprehensive introduction.
Since ancient times, plum blossoms have been celebrated in China, and many flower enthusiasts like to cultivate a pot of plum blossoms at home. To cultivate plum blossoms, it is necessary to prepare suitable soil, provide sufficient light, and manage water and fertilizer properly to enjoy the full bloom of fragrance. Next, let's talk about how to cultivate potting蜡梅.
1. Prepare the cultivation soil
蜡梅 plants prefer loose and well-ventilated soil. You can buy special nutrient-rich soil. If you want to make your own, you can mix 4 parts of humus soil, 2 parts of perlite, 2 parts of vermiculite, and 2 parts of coal slag evenly as the potting soil. The soil must not be heavy and sticky; after preparation, place it in the sun for 2 days to disinfect.
2. Light and temperature
Potted plum blossoms need to be placed in a well-lit position to receive diffused light. Only with sufficient light can the plants grow better, but they should not be exposed to direct strong sunlight. During the summer when the sun is strong, provide appropriate shading. Plum blossoms are relatively cold-resistant and can safely survive at temperatures as low as -15 degrees Celsius. During the blooming period, it is advisable to maintain the temperature above -10 degrees Celsius, otherwise, the flowers may suffer from frost damage. If extreme cold weather occurs, it is best to move the plants indoors to keep warm to avoid frostbite.
3. Fertilization
When potting, the nutrient content in the soil is limited, so it is necessary to fertilize in time. The concentration of the fertilizer should be dilute. It is necessary to apply fertilizer twice when the plants are unfolding their leaves in spring to help the plants grow. From the end of June to the beginning of the summer solstice, you can apply a compound fertilizer every 10 days, and after the summer solstice, apply 1-2 times of gray phosphorus potassium fertilizer. After the autumn cool, apply a dry fertilizer once, and after entering winter, apply 1-2 times of organic liquid fertilizer.
The above is the potting蜡梅 soil and the experience of cultivating potting蜡梅, hoping to bring help to you in life!
