Cultivation method of magnolia

Selected basin: tile basin has good air permeability and is suitable for breeding Damu orchid. Soil disinfection: fine sand can be washed and disinfected with boiling water, and humus soil can be disinfected by spraying potassium permanganate. Pot: Damu orchid should not be planted too deep, just bury the false bulb at the base of the seed plant, cover the sandy soil and pour water through it. Temperature: it is better to keep it at about 18 ℃. Illumination: strong light is not suitable for direct light in summer, but sufficient light can be provided in winter. Watering: avoid waterlogging and keep the basin soil moist. Fertilization: solid fertilizer can be applied once in winter.

1. Damulan

In fact, Damulan is a variety of magnolia, its leaves are short, round and wide, while the leaves of Damu are longer, pointed and narrow. in addition, the orientation of the flowers will be different when they bloom. "the upper flower is Damu orchid and the lower flower is Damulan." the appearance of Damu orchid is relatively good, so it is more valuable than Damulan.

2. Damulan ramets

1. Selection of basin

Damulan ramet should first prepare the flowerpot, generally commonly used tile pot, this kind of permeability is good, conducive to plant development and growth, it is not suitable to choose porcelain, ceramic flowerpot.

2. Soil disinfection

The planting soil should be disinfected first to prevent the seedlings from being infected with germs and decay. If fine sand is mixed with humus, fine sand should be washed and disinfected with boiling water, while humus can be disinfected by spraying 1000-2000 times potassium permanganate aqueous solution. Secondly, in order to absorb moisture to prevent decay, you can prepare a small amount of charcoal powder to smear the wound.

3. Ramet

When ramet, first dig out the Damu orchid from the basin and remove the persistent soil, such as the daughter plant is born on the outer edge of the mother plant, the plant is relatively small, you can tear it off directly, and you can break it off from the mother, such as the daughter plant is strong, not easy to break off, can be cut off with a sharp knife, pay attention not to force it, otherwise it is easy to damage the young plant, in addition, after cutting off the daughter plant, you can smear dry charcoal on the wound, which is helpful to absorb the dry fluid to prevent decay.

4. Upper basin

Damu orchid should not be planted too deep, just bury the false bulb at the base of the seed plant, cover it with a layer of treated sand, pour enough water after planting, and cover it with a layer of cultivated soil after 2 weeks. New roots can grow in about 1-2 months and blossom in 1-2 years.

III. Daily maintenance of Damulan

1. Temperature

Magnolia is a tropical plant, but it is not suitable to grow in a high temperature environment. In order to make it grow normally, the indoor temperature must be well controlled. In general, the growth temperature should be kept at about 18 ℃.

2. Lighting

Generally in the summer high temperature environment, should not be strong light direct, should be appropriate shading, and winter can be placed in a sunny place for maintenance, which is conducive to thick green leaves, large flowers, bright colors.

3. Watering

Damulan is a fleshy root, avoid waterlogging, especially in winter, should be a small amount of watering, should not be excessive, can be combined with fertilization, so that the basin soil can be kept moist, each watering must be thoroughly, in the bud period can appropriately increase the amount of water.

4. Fertilization

Damulan can apply solid fertilizer once in winter, increase potassium and phosphorus fertilizer, apply a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer, and can also apply nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer, which is beneficial to promote plant germination and new leaves.
