How to raise Zhu banana culture methods and matters needing attention

Zhu Jiao plant beautiful shape, gorgeous and elegant colors, its leaves markings, elegant plant state, bright and bright, with a red torso, giving people a bright feeling. Zhu Jiao is a kind of ornamental and common plant, so what should we pay attention to if we want to raise a good Zhu banana?

How to raise Zhu Jiao

Red leaf red banana likes to be warm and humid, light and shady, but not cold-resistant. It must be kept indoors for more than 10 ℃ in winter to survive the winter. The red leaf plantain can endure the dark state for 15 days, and the temperature should be kept at 16: 18 ℃ and the relative humidity should be kept at 80% 90%.

The propagation of red-leaf plantain is mainly by cutting, which can be carried out from June to October. The old plant whose lower leaves fall off is cut into segments of about 5 cm. After the incision is slightly dry, it is inserted into sand or hydrocarbon stone, or it can be buried horizontally in the matrix, slightly covering the soil, keeping about 25 ℃ and a certain humidity, and rooting and sending out new plants in 3 weeks. It can also be propagated by high pressure and sowing.

The cultivation of red-leaf plantain is relatively easy, and the pot soil is made of 2 parts of rotten leaf soil and 1 part of sand or sawdust to make it slightly acidic. Zhu Jiao likes light and grows vigorously under sufficient and wet conditions, but the summer light is too strong, which is not conducive to the growth of Zhu banana. The leaves are easy to aging and dark, so we should pay attention to shading. In the growing season, in addition to watering to keep the soil moist, fertilizer should be applied once every semimonthly. When the weather is dry, water should be sprayed to the leaves to humidify. In winter, it should be placed in a place with sufficient indoor light to reduce watering, dry rather than wet. If the plant is prone to shell insects in a poorly ventilated environment, attention should be paid to prevention and control.

Red leaves Zhu Jiao like adequate light, but summer and autumn should be properly shaded (the degree of shade is about 50%); hot sun exposure can easily cause leaf burns and yellowing. It can also withstand shade, but the light is too weak for a long time, and the color is not bright. Under the condition of hot and dry climate, shell insects or red spiders often occur in Zhu banana, so attention should be paid to spray control.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Zhu Jiao

Culture methods:

Zhu Jiao likes adequate light, but it should be properly shaded in summer and autumn (the degree of shade is about 50%). Hot sun exposure can easily cause leaf burns and yellowing. It can also withstand shade, but the light is too weak for a long time, and the color is not bright. Under the condition of hot and dry climate, shell insects or red spiders often occur in Zhu banana, so attention should be paid to spray control.

Note:

1. The optimum temperature for the growth of Zhu Jiao is 20: 25 ℃, 25: 30 ℃ in daytime in summer and 7: 10 ℃ at night in winter. It can not be lower than 4 ℃, and some varieties can withstand 0 ℃ low temperature.

2. Zhu banana lack of water can easily cause fallen leaves, but too much water or stagnant water in the basin will also cause fallen leaves or leaf tip yellowing phenomenon. Stems and leaves should be often sprayed with water during the growing period, and the air humidity of 50% to 60% is more suitable.

3. Zhu Jiao has strong adaptability to light, and short-term strong light or long-term semi-shade has little effect on the growth of Zhu banana. Proper shading and weakening light intensity at noon in summer are very beneficial to the growth of leaves.

4. The cultivation soil of Zhu banana should be rich, loose and well-drained sandy loam, which is not tolerant to saline-alkali and acid soil. Potted plants are often mixed with rotten leaf soil or peat soil and culture soil and coarse sand.

What about the rotten roots of Zhu Jiao?

1. Pour out all the water and disinfect the bottle. It is best to use potassium permanganate solution. If not, soak in concentrated salt water for half a day.

2. Wash the bottle thoroughly.

3. Check if the flower branches are rotten, remove the rotten parts, then brush gently from top to bottom with a soft brush, rinse clean if there are rotten roots, remove the rotten branches. Spray a few times with alcohol spray if possible, and rinse off after a few seconds.

4. Plug it back in and put in a few pebbles or shells if possible.

How to trim Zhu Jiao

Zhu Jiao is a foliage plant, resistant to pruning, but its branches and leaves are limited, more cutting is not beautiful, and is not conducive to photosynthesis, the petiole can be cut off quickly with scissors.

Water-raised plantain likes rotten water, and it is not suitable to change water after rooting. Water can only be added in time after water evaporation is reduced. Often changing water is easy to cause leaf yellow branches to wither. In order to prevent it from overgrowing, do not apply chemical fertilizer, it is best to inject a few drops of brandy into the bottle every 3 weeks or so. Add a small amount of nutrient solution, that is, to keep the leaves green.

If a small amount of compound fertilizer is applied in time after the soil keeps its roots, the branches will grow stout and the leaves will be oil-green. Compound fertilizer can be applied once a month in spring and autumn. Do not put Zhu banana next to the TV set or where the air conditioner is often blown, lest the leaf tip and edge will dry up.

After my tedious work every day, I came across a Zhu banana plant with bright colors like the summer sun, enthusiastic and unrestrained, bringing people a good mood. if you want to raise a good Zhu banana plant, it is not only necessary to understand the growth habits and breeding methods of Zhu plantain, but also to treat and irrigate it seriously in daily life.
