From May to June, cut the stem section with full growth as cuttings, dry for several days, and insert them into the medium after the wound is slightly dried. Just insert in the sand remember not to water. Water immediately after insertion, and the general stem section will rot from bottom to top. After 2-3 days, spray water again. Rooting can take place in 40-50 days at 20-25℃.

2. The pot soil for planting unicorn palm in the upper pot is prepared by mixing 3 parts of vegetable garden soil, 3 parts of decomposed manure soil and 4 parts of river sand. When planting, first put a layer (2 cm-3 cm) of slag or coarse sand on the bottom of the flowerpot to facilitate drainage and prevent waterlogging. After the basin should be poured through water, first placed in a cool place for a week, then moved to a weak light, and then gradually moved to a stronger light placed. It is drought resistant, less watering should not be more, master the principle of see dry see wet.

Causes and control of Aspergillus purpureus rot

I. Reasons:

Aspergillus cepacia is the main pathogen of aspergillosis, which causes the main stem or branches of unicorn to rot. Pathogens will attach to soil, sick bodies and other substances, after winter, produce conidia, and then spread through the air flow, invade the unicorn palm, causing harm to it. In addition, it is necessary to maintain the continuous stability of the temperature and humidity of the basin soil, otherwise it is easy to get sick. In addition, long-term high temperature or high humidity environment can also lead to Aspergillus rot disease.

II. Prevention and control:

1, after the disease in time to remove the sick body, concentrated buried or burned, and can be mixed with 1 75% Dakoning wettable powder 50-100 parts of fine dry soil as a drug scattered on the soil surface, of course, if necessary, can be directly replaced pot soil.

2. In the early stage of the disease, some liquids can be sprayed, such as 40% chlorothalonil suspension 500 times solution, 50% thiophanate-methyl wettable powder 800 times solution or 50% benomyl wettable powder 1000 times solution. The site of the disease can be smeared with medical Dakening ointment, which can be effectively treated.

How to water the unicorn palm

1, summer and autumn: summer and autumn is its most vigorous growth season, but it is relatively drought-resistant, so watering should not be too much, you can follow the principle of dry in the watering; if you encounter rainy weather, you should delay watering, do not let the soil stay in a wet state for a long time, otherwise it is easy to cause its roots to rot, serious will lead to the death of the whole plant. Too much watering will make this plant appear excessive growth phenomenon, in addition to affecting the appearance, there is adverse to its healthy growth.

2, winter and spring: its cold ability is poor, so winter will generally be placed indoors breeding, the temperature should be guaranteed above 15 degrees, if the temperature drops to 12 degrees, it will enter the dormant period, at this time to reduce the amount of watering, even can stop watering, let the state of the soil remain dry, and then wait until the spring temperature gradually rises, in the return to normal watering. If the temperature can be controlled between 15 and 18 degrees in winter, watering can be carried out every 10 days.

Qilin palm is a flowering variety, but flowering is rare, if you see it, it is very lucky. Kirin palm in the maintenance of time to grow well, it must be propagated, generally will use the method of cuttage to carry out, there are detailed descriptions above, I hope to be helpful to everyone.
