Culture methods and matters needing attention of plum blossoms in the four seasons

Culture method: the four seasons plum blossom can choose sandy soil with good water permeability, generally use garden soil and peat soil for culture, pay attention to control the amount of water in the culture process to prevent rotting roots, keep the basin soil dry in winter, apply nitrogen fertilizer once a week during the growth period, topdressing phosphate fertilizer in the bud stage, like sufficient sunshine, and the suitable growth temperature is 20-33 ℃. Note: when growing 4-6 leaves, you need to pick the heart and actively control diseases and insect pests such as rust, leaf rot, root wart nematodes and so on.

Sandy soil

The requirements of the four seasons plum blossom on the soil are not very strict, and the general garden soil and peat soil can be cultured, but the saline-alkali soil can not be selected, which will make the growth and development of the four seasons plum blossom poor. therefore, we can choose the sandy soil with good ventilation and permeability, which is helpful to promote the growth of the four seasons plum blossom.

Second, reduce watering

Too much watering will cause stagnant water in the basin, resulting in rot at the roots of the four seasons plum blossoms, so it is necessary to pay attention to control the amount of water. Water can be watered every 3-5 days to keep the soil moist in the basin and reduce the amount of water in the basin in winter. and keep the soil dry in the basin to make the plant survive the winter safely.

III. Timely fertilization

The four seasons plum blossoms need to be fertilized during the growing period and the bud stage to supply sufficient nutrients to promote better plant growth. During this period, nitrogen fertilizer can be applied every 7-10 days, and phosphorus fertilizer can be applied in the bud stage of the four seasons plum blossoms. It is beneficial for the four seasons plum flowers to blossom beautifully.

Fourth, temperature and light

The suitable temperature for the growth of the four seasons plum blossom is 20-33 ℃, and the lowest temperature in winter should not be lower than 5 ℃, otherwise the four seasons plum blossom will suffer from low temperature freezing injury. The four seasons plum blossom likes to grow in a sunny environment, so it is necessary to provide sufficient sunlight for it to photosynthesize and grow and blossom, and shade is needed in the hot summer sun.

V. matters needing attention

1. Pick the heart and trim

When the four seasons plum blossom grows to 4-6 leaves, it is necessary to pick the heart to make it sprout more side branches. During the period, the heart should not be picked more than three times. After the four seasons plum blossom blossoms need to be pruned, the branches that have blossomed can be trimmed during this period to avoid excessive nutrient consumption, resulting in poor growth of the four seasons plum blossom.

2. prevention and control of diseases and insect pests

The common diseases and insect pests of four seasons plum blossom are rust, leaf rot, root wart nematode and so on, which can damage branches and leaves, and even lead to plant withering and death. therefore, it can be timely sprayed with Dysen zinc wettable powder, Weiling wettable powder and dibromochloropropane EC for control.

VI. Methods of reproduction

1. Sowing and reproduction

We can choose to sow and propagate in spring around April, sow the selected seeds in the soil mixed with prepared culture soil, rotten leaf soil and fine sand, keep the temperature at about 18-24 ℃, and wait for about 15 days to germinate.

2. Cuttage propagation

Four seasons plum blossom can also choose cutting propagation, can cut off about 8-10cm branches, retain the upper two leaves, and then insert the branches into the soil, and keep the soil moist, waiting for about 15 days to grow new roots.
