Yushu maintenance skills
As a star member of the succulent family, Yushu is deeply loved by gardening enthusiasts for its green and plump leaves and elegant shape. If Yushu wants to maintain its strong vitality, it is necessary to master scientific maintenance methods and be familiar with its unique breeding system. This article will systematically analyze the entire process of Yushu cultivation from daily management to cuttage seedling raising. Five key points for scientific maintenance of Yushu 1. The substrate preparation method uses the gold ratio of perlite: leaf soil: coarse sand = 2:3:1, and bone meal is added as a long-term base fertilizer every 2 years when the substrate is replaced. Special attention should be paid to laying a 3cm ceramite drainage layer on the bottom of the basin, which can effectively prevent stagnant water and rotten roots. 2. Light management specifications Ensure 6 hours of direct light every day in spring and autumn, and use sunshade nets to filter strong light from 10:00 to 15:00 in summer. In winter, a fill light is used to assist in maintaining a light cycle of more than 4 hours per day. 3. The intelligent water control plan uses the "dipping basin method" to water more scientifically: immerse the flower pot in water for 10 seconds every week in spring and autumn, change it to 5 days per time in summer, and extend it to 15 days per time in winter. The water shortage situation is judged by observing the fullness of the leaves, and water needs to be replenished if the top leaves are slightly wrinkled. 4. Nutrient supply strategy During the growth period, special liquid fertilizer for meat diluted 1000 times is applied every month, combined with slow-release fertilizer granules once a quarter. Pay special attention to topdressing phosphorus and potassium fertilizers after flowering, and you can spray them on the leaves with potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution. 5. The key points of environmental temperature control are equipped with a thermometer for real-time monitoring. In summer, the temperature is maintained below 28 ℃ through spray, and in winter, the temperature is covered with insulation film to ensure that it is not lower than 10 ℃. Controlling the temperature difference between day and night within 8 ℃ can promote healthy growth. Yushu efficient propagation dual-channel branch cuttage method selects semi-lignified branches and retains 3 - 4 pairs of leaves. Apply rooting powder to the incision and dry it for 24 hours. Insert it into a vermiculite matrix to maintain 75% humidity. After rooting for about 15 days, it can be transplanted. Leaf propagation technique selects plump and healthy leaves and places them flat on the surface of moist river sand. Maintain the scattered light environment and constant temperature of 25 ℃, and new buds can be seen for about 30 days. When the new plant grows to 3 cm, transplant it with its mother leaves.
Through systematic maintenance management and scientific reproduction methods, Yushu can not only maintain an oily and healthy posture, but also cultivate new plants of different shapes. It is recommended to regularly observe the status of plants, establish a maintenance log to record growth data, and gradually form a personalized cultivation system.
