The reason and solution of non-flowering of White Palm in hydroponic Culture

With the improvement of people's living standards, people have more spare time and money to enrich their lives. For example, female friends like to use their leisure time to raise some particularly delicate and beautiful flowers and plants at home. White palm is one of the potted flowers we like to cultivate at home, not only in soil, but also in water. Let's take a look at the method of hydroponic cultivation of white palm together with the editor.

The method of hydroponic culture of white palm in family

1. Vase

If you want to use water culture, you can buy a large vase at the bottom, or a medium-sized fish tank is also good.

2. Temperature

Only the appropriate temperature can help it grow, 5-30 degrees is relatively normal, in this range, it will not be hurt, can grow normally.

3. Lighting

Should give it scattered light, this is the most suitable light, it is not necessary to let it in the sun, especially in summer, do not put in the sun directly.

4. Water and fertilizer

Add water to it in high temperature season for about a week, and change it every ten days and fifteen days in winter. Every time you add water, you can add a little special hydroponic nutrient solution and mix it according to the instructions. The bottle fed by water can easily grow green algae, the roots will not look good, and oxygen will be consumed. When adding water, you should wash the dirt on the roots, cut off the dead roots, and wash the bottles clean. The water in the bottle needs less than half or 2/3 of the root, and the rest of the exposed parts can help it absorb the material.

5. Humidity

In order to avoid its withered and yellow leaves and affect viewing, its leaves can often be sprayed with water and humidified, and it is best to spray foliar fertilizer once a week, which can not only increase nutrients, make the leaves more glossy, but also make it more safe to survive the winter. Before flowering, the leaves can be sprayed with potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 0.3%, two or three times can help it blossom more densely.

The reason why the white palm does not blossom

1. Maintenance of environmental discomfort

White palms are called lazy flowers, but it is not easy to make them blossom. If white palm grows in places with insufficient light or too strong sun for a long time, it will cause its poor growth and difficult to blossom, especially in the period before flowering from April to May, when the light is insufficient, the air is dry, and white palm will not blossom in time.

2. Insufficient growth space.

White palm grows faster, generally 1-2 years of plants will be full of pots, leaves crowded, improper ventilation, inside the leaves are difficult to accept the sun, difficult to blossom.

3. Long-term lack of fertilizer

White palm does not apply fertilizer for a long time, which is not conducive to the healthy growth of the plant and affects flowering. During the growth period from May to September, some granular compound fertilizer is applied every month, which will not only grow leaves but also bloom.

4. The growth years are not enough.

White palm flowering itself also needs conditions restrictions, bought from the flower market has flowered white palm growth period of more than 3 years, basically can bloom normally. But under normal circumstances, the white palm of 4 ~ 6 years old can blossom normally, if the white palm sown needs 5 ~ 6 years to blossom, and the seedlings after ramet need to grow for 2-3 years before flowering. If your white palm is in infancy, not blooming is a normal phenomenon, but also need to wait slowly!

The solution of non-flowering of white palm

1. Strengthen daily maintenance

Put the plant in a bright place to maintain, pay attention to timely watering, to ensure air humidity. From April to May, water is often sprinkled around the plant to increase the relative humidity and fertilize once a month, which can appropriately increase the amount of fertilizer before flowering to ensure sufficient nutrients to blossom.

2. Inducing and promoting flower

White palm flowering needs to be induced, and gibberellic acid is sprayed one month before flowering to induce flowering artificially.

3. Change the big basin in time

The leaves of white palm grow rapidly, change the pot and loosen the soil in time according to its growth situation. Every year in early spring, change a large basin for white palm, and replace it with loose soil at the same time. After changing the pot, put the plant in a cool place for 1 week, and then maintain it normally. When the branches and leaves of the plant are too dense, and the ratio of plant to spray is at 3:1, the pot needs to be changed in time. For fast-growing potted plants, pots can be changed in autumn.

What if the white palm flowers are getting smaller and smaller?

If it is too dense, it is necessary to prune the plants, trim off all the branches and leaves such as the rising trend is weak and have been eroded by diseases and insect pests; at the same time, remove the older leaves; if you find that the edges of the leaves are yellowing, you should also remove them. In this way, it can not only increase the transparency and air permeability of the plant, but also avoid unnecessary nutrient loss.

If there is a lack of nutrients or the soil is not fertile enough, you can dump half of the original soil and replace it with half of the new fertile soil, and then do a good job of fertilizing every day. Fertilizing should also be done after flowering, which is beneficial to the next flowering. Many friends think that plants can be treated loosely after flowering, which is a mistake.

These two reasons belong to the most direct reasons. I believe everyone now has a certain understanding of this problem. The editor wants to say that problems with plants must have something to do with our improper maintenance. Therefore, as long as we pay more attention to maintenance, then flowers will certainly be healthy and healthy!

As mentioned above, in fact, sometimes hydroponic white palms will be more convenient and beautiful, and there is no soil, so you don't have to worry about getting dirty at home! Not only soil culture or water culture, white palm are so exquisite atmosphere!
