What to do if the old盆jing stump does not grow roots
Main content introduction: This article provides an introduction to what to do if the old盆jing stump does not grow roots and a detailed explanation of the maintenance methods for old盆jing stumps in the field of green plants and flowers. Please see the detailed introduction below.
The best planting material for growing flowers is red jade soil, which can effectively promote root growth and prevent root rot. Red jade soil is formed from volcanic eruptions and the combustion of soil, resulting in accumulations. The soil itself varies in size, with 3-5mm being the most commonly used and effective size, suitable for the growth of any type of plant.
The average price of red jade soil in the Chinese market is about 3-5 yuan per jin. The quality of red jade soil varies, and so does the price. Cheaper ones cost about 3 yuan per jin, while better quality red jade soil costs about 5 yuan per jin. The quality is mainly determined by its hardness, with harder textures being more expensive.
Red jade soil is originally from Japan, and all the red jade soil available in the Chinese market is imported from Japan. There are significant differences between batches and products from different manufacturers. In China, red jade soil is widely used for cultivating succulents,盆jing, and plant cuttings.
High-quality succulents are usually grown using red jade soil, which is granular in nature, with varying sizes of granules to meet the growth needs of succulents at different stages. Red jade soil is slightly acidic, has good water absorption, and is highly permeable, making it suitable for plant root growth.
What to do if the old盆jing stump does not grow roots
For home gardening, if you want to propagate plants through cuttings, red jade soil is the best choice. Fill a transparent cup with red jade soil and insert the prepared plant cuttings directly into the soil, water it, and wait for a week for root growth. Red jade soil has the best root growth effect and the highest survival rate. Any type of plant we see can be propagated using red jade soil.
The presence of red jade soil has saved many plants that were close to death, such as expensive盆jing, which are mostly (90%) cultivated using red jade soil. It is crucial for盆jing to grow roots, as the success of root growth determines the survival of the盆jing. In many cases,盆jing plants have only a bare main trunk without roots, making it difficult to grow new roots later.
In order to help bare-rooted盆jing grow roots successfully, red jade soil is very useful. Use large-grained red jade soil, bury the bare-rooted盆jing directly in it, water thoroughly, wrap the盆jing in a plastic bag to reduce water evaporation, and place it in natural light. It will root quickly. The probability of root growth with red jade soil can reach over 80%, making it much more effective than other types of soil.
In addition to this, volcanic stones can also promote root growth, with red volcanic stones being effective and inexpensive. However, their success rate is slightly lower. I recommend using red jade soil, as盆jing is not cheap, and no other type of soil sold in the market has a higher probability of root growth than red jade soil.
