Let's find out.

The propagation method of fortune tree (grafting, cuttage)

1. Grafting

First, we will collect scion cut into 8-10 cm long scion with 2-3 buds, scion bottom bud 3 cm at the lower end, from both sides cut into 2-3 cm long wedge slope, scion surface to be smooth. Next, gently from the rootstock with a cleaving knife cutting section at the center of vertical cleavage, cleavage about 3 cm long. Gently pry open the opening with a cleaving knife and insert the cut scion quickly so that the cambium of the scion and rootstock is aligned and grows together. Then, immediately after joining, tie it tightly with plastic film tape, do not let scion and rootstock move, and smear the incision with yellow mud or wax to prevent moisture evaporation and avoid soil falling into the incision, affecting healing. Finally, cover the rootstock and scion with wet soil.

2. Cutting

First of all, select the half-lignified branches of the year with strong growth, no diseases and insect pests and excellent characteristics, cut them in cloudy days or windless mornings, the length of the cut is 6 to 7 cm, the lower incision is horseshoe-shaped, located under the leaves or axillary buds, and the incision should be smooth, which is conducive to the formation of healing tissue. Generally each cutting has 2 palmar leaves. Pay attention not to hurt the leaves, in order to facilitate photosynthesis, generally in late June to early August for insertion, should be cut in the morning and evening with the insertion.

Before cuttage, one half of cuttings are soaked in 25PPM (1) ABT rooting solution for 20 to 24 hours. After taking out, they are washed with clean water. Small sticks are used to punch holes in the bed surface, then inserted along the holes, and then sealed and compacted. Cuttings can be inserted in a short time, cuttings can be inserted obliquely when they are long, cutting depth is not inclined, generally 3 to 5 cm. Pouring water in time after insertion, righting the wrong cuttings, covering them with plastic cloth, and compacting them with soil. After cuttage, it is necessary to ensure suitable environmental conditions for rooting.

The cultivation method of rich tree

1. Choice of environment

Fortune tree adaptability is strong, like light and shade, full sunshine, half sunshine or shade are growing well. But if you grow in the dark for a long time, your chances of survival will deteriorate. In summer, it is better to shade 50% so as to avoid scorching sun to make leaf tips and leaf margins dry and scorched. In indoor culture viewing should be placed in a certain scattered light, not for more than 30 consecutive days, such as the phenomenon of poor growth, should gradually accept sunlight, avoid rapid exposure to strong light, in case not adapt to death.

The cultivation methods and precautions of rich trees

2. Selection of basin soil

Most of the rich trees bought now are the soil brought by the merchants. Flower friends do not have to change the soil at the first time after buying them. They raise them first and then consider changing the soil later. If the soil is changed, the potted plants of rich trees generally use loose vegetable garden soil or peat soil, rotten leaf soil, coarse sand, plus a small amount of compound fertilizer or chicken droppings as base fertilizer and cultivation soil.

3. Watering

The roots of Fortune Tree are very underdeveloped. Many flower friends of Fortune Tree died mostly because of rotten roots. Some flower friends will ask, how often does Fortune Tree need to be watered and how much water is watered at a time? To be clear here, the situation varies from place to place. The use of pots and soil is also different, so there is no fixed watering standard. Then how do flower friends water Fortune Tree? Generally speaking, watering once a month is not too little. In addition, tell flower friends a tip, that is, plants will not die soon due to lack of water. After watering, it will recover soon, but if the water is basically waterlogged, it cannot be saved. The rich tree can usually spray more water and water less.

4. Fertilization

Under normal circumstances, if the soil is fertile enough, no fertilizer is needed. If it has been raised for a long time, you can consider giving thin fertilizer instead of thick fertilizer. Fertilization can use some common leaf fertilizer. Remember to be thin fertilizer.

Rich tree planting considerations

1, change the pot: according to the need to change the pot in the spring, and prune the branches and leaves once, promote the renewal of branches and leaves.

2. Diseases and pests: The common diseases of Fortune Tree are mainly root rot and leaf blight, and there will also be larvae of sugarcane flat moth in the process of growth. In addition, we should pay attention to the fact that the rich tree will also have yellow leaves and falling leaves, so we should observe them in time and prevent them early.

3, pruning: if the rich tree is planted outdoors, it does not need to be pruned, let it grow; but if it is planted in a potted plant as a foliage plant, if it is not pruned in time, it is easy to grow too fast, affecting the viewing. Pruning at the right time can control its growth speed and change its shape to make the plant more ornamental.

Symptoms and solutions of bad roots

Symptoms: One is sudden yellow leaf litter, which should exclude yellowing caused by exposure; the other is bark shedding, originally brown mottled bark, suddenly turns white, and the stem softens, also representing rotten roots.

Solution: Take the rich tree out of the pot, clean up the soil at the root, if it is more serious decay, it is recommended to clean up the soil at the root with water, and then cut off the rotten, black roots, if the whole root system is rotten, you can cut off the whole root system, do not worry about dying, replanting will slowly take root.

If the stem part is also soft and wilting, pluck this part together, soak the treated fortune tree in potassium permanganate solution for 24 hours, or spray disinfectant on the wound, dry it in the shade, and replant it. After the fortune tree is replanted, the most important thing to pay attention to is watering. The roots of the pruned fortune tree are not fully developed, and the absorption capacity is weak. It does not need too much water. And at this time to avoid humid environment, so as not to breed bacterial infection.
