Hawaiian bamboo culture methods and precautions, like warmth but avoid bright light

Temperature: the optimum temperature for bamboo growth in Hawaii is about 20 ℃. Lighting: avoid strong light and should be placed in a semi-overcast state. Soil: the soil is required to be loose, and river sand, rotten leaf soil and original soil can be mixed with some mature organic fertilizer. Select basin: mud basin, plastic basin can be, every two years to change the basin. Watering: keep the soil moist during the growing period, spray water to the leaves in summer and reduce the number of spraying times in winter. Fertilization: nitrogen fertilizer is the main fertilizer in the growing period, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer is applied in September.

Methods of culturing bamboo in Hawaii

1. Temperature and light requirements

Like warmth: Hawaiian bamboo likes a warm environment, the most suitable temperature is 20 degrees, cold resistance is also relatively strong, if the winter temperature can be maintained at 5-10 ℃, Hawaiian bamboo can still grow normally.

Avoid strong light: Hawaiian bamboo can not be directly exposed to the sun, if the direct sunlight is too intense, it will cause the leaves of the plant to turn yellow, and the acceptable sunlight is the semi-overcast state, which can grow normally under the condition of scattered light, and its negative tolerance is relatively strong. It can be placed in a darker place for about two months.

2. the method of potting.

The posture of Hawaiian bamboo is relatively small, so you can directly choose potted plants, such as mud pots, white plastic pots, white plastic pots and so on. Hawaiian bamboo can be changed once it has been planted for more than two years, but it can not be changed in summer and winter. High and low temperatures will affect Hawaiian bamboo, so it is better to turn it in early spring and early summer.

The cultivated soil can be cultivated with river sand, rotten leaf soil and original soil mixed with some mature organic fertilizer as the culture substrate, so that the substrate is better permeable and the soil is loose.

3. Fertilization and watering methods

During the period of bamboo culture in Hawaii, we also need to pay more attention to fertilization and watering. In the growing season, we mainly apply nitrogen fertilizer, fertilizing once or twice a month, and we should stop applying nitrogen fertilizer and change it to phosphorus and potassium fertilizer around September. In this way, it is more beneficial for Hawaiian bamboo to survive the winter and stop fertilizing in winter.

Hawaiian bamboo has a great demand for water during the growing period, so it is necessary to keep the soil moist and spray more water on the leaves during the dry season to maintain the humidity of the air. Watering times should be reduced in winter to keep the soil in a relatively dry environment.

Matters needing attention in culture

When raising Hawaiian bamboo, we should pay attention to the environment and the prevention of diseases and insect pests. Hawaiian bamboo can not be in the environment of high temperature and high humidity, so it is easy to produce black spot. If there is the phenomenon of black spot, the leaves will appear some small brown spots, and then slowly expand into black-brown round disease spots, so that the leaves of Hawaiian bamboo become yellow and lose luster.

If the tips and edges of the leaves are scorched, it is because the air is too dry and the light is too strong.
