How can the newly broken iron tree be planted? when can the iron tree be changed (can it be changed in summer?)

What is an iron tree? Iron tree is a kind of green plant with high ornamental value, which can be seen in many places in our life. Presumably most people know that the iron tree has a very strong ability to reproduce and adapt, so many people will break it off directly from the iron tree to raise it. What is the planting method for this situation?

How can the iron tree just broken live?

1. Soil

Specific requirements: first, good drainage, iron tree avoid dampness. The second is loose and contains a lot of nutrition. Third, the plant itself likes slightly sour sandy soil.

2. Lighting

The iron tree likes light very much, so it should be placed in a place with plenty of light every season. If there is no light, its leaves will become sparse, lose green, and the whole plant will be very thin. Especially in spring and autumn, when new leaves are growing, be sure to keep the light shining.

3. Temperature

It likes warmth. But it is too high, so we need to spray water to cool down in summer. Can not be too low, the winter needs to be above ten degrees in order to safely spend the winter.

4. Moisture

Generally speaking, it likes to dry and is afraid of waterlogging, but it can be observed that the soil is dry before watering. The times of watering vary in different seasons. In spring and autumn, it is usually once every three or five days; when it is high in summer, there are more watering times, one in the morning and one in the evening; at least in winter, once every ten days or so. The general principle is "see dry and wet", do not accumulate water.

5. Fertilization

Mainly nitrogen fertilizer and potash fertilizer, such as mature cake fertilizer and water. But don't use too much fertilizer. In addition, in order to make the leaf color become thick green, ferrous sulfate can be added to the fertilizer.

When should the iron tree change the basin (can I change the basin in summer)

Iron trees can change pots in summer, but for beginners who have no experience in farming, we do not recommend you to do so.

The pot-changing work of Tetranychus should be carried out in early spring, when the new leaves have not yet grown and the temperature is stable at about 15 ℃. In the process of changing the basin, the soil around the plant needs to be compacted. For medium and large seedlings, rotten roots and part of the persistent soil need to be removed, but to avoid breaking the soil. The soil surface after planting should be about 3-5 cm lower than the rim of the basin to ensure room for watering and root expansion. Generally speaking, the basin is changed once a year in the seedling period, once in 2-3 years in the middle seedling, and once in 4-5 years in the big seedling.

How does Iron Tree Tillering and Propagation

1. Take tiller buds

The sprouting position of the tiller bud of the iron tree is concentrated on the base of the stem and the cadre, so it is suitable to choose the full tiller bud for more than 3 years or the tiller bud with 4 leaves and 5 leaves as the propagation material. Cut the tiller bud from the root with a sharp knife and pay attention when cutting to minimize the damage to the stem bark. The rooted tiller buds can be directly planted in the drainage and well-ventilated culture soil rich in humus for management. if they are unrooted tiller buds, they should be hung in a cool and ventilated place for about 3 days. wait until the incision dries a little before root treatment.

2. Urge the root

Before planting, it is best to deal with the wound to avoid its decay, generally can be coated with plant ash, sulfur powder and so on. After that, it was planted in plain sand, and the depth of the substrate was about half of the height of tiller buds, watered once, and then kept indoors in a place with light to maintain. Generally, the new root can germinate in about 2 months, and 1-2 new leaves can be produced in about 3 or 4 months.

3. Transplanting

When the new leaves are all unfolded, they can be transferred into the culture soil for management. The culture soil is generally suitable to be mixed with rotten leaf soil, mycorrhizal soil, river sand and calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer according to the ratio of 9: 4 / 6 / 1.

What is the value of raising iron trees?

1. Ornamental value: the iron tree has a quaint tree shape, a stout trunk, hard as iron, smooth and bright feather leaves, evergreen all the year round, and is a precious ornamental tree species with high ornamental value.

2. Decorate the home: iron trees are mostly planted beside the courtyard steps and lawns in the south, while large potted plants are arranged in the north, decorating courtyard corridors and halls, and the iron trees are graceful, which are used to decorate the home to give people a sense of closeness to nature and a sense of comfort.

3, purify the air: iron tree is also good for air purification and improvement, and has the effect of absorbing toxic and harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen peroxide, benzene, fluorine, mercury vapor, lead vapor and so on.

After reading the above description, do you have a better understanding of Irontree? The cultivation method of iron tree is relatively simple, and the survival rate is also very high. However, if you want the iron tree to grow well, the most important thing is to cultivate it in accordance with its growth habits.
