Culture methods and matters needing attention of Golden Amber Ball

The golden amber ball is a big man in the cactus, usually raised outdoors, growing and matching with some large cactus fingers. Although he is relatively large, it does not mean that it is easy to raise, the cultivation of golden amber balls also need to master the correct methods and skills, so that the big guy is not fat.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of golden amber ball

1. Soil selection of golden amber ball.

It is required to be loose, moderate fertility, neutral or slightly acidic, and rich in organic matter. Bagged soil is available in the market, and it can also be prepared by itself: 3 parts of ① loam, 2 parts of rotten leaf soil or peat soil, 1 part of sieve bone powder, 4 parts of coarse sand; 3 parts of ② coarse sand, 3 parts of garden soil, 2 parts of rotten leaf soil, 1 part of calcareous matter, 1 part of broken brick or tile, in which a little calcium superphosphate, charcoal particles or bone powder are added.

2. Temperature requirement of golden amber ball

Temperature plays an important role in the growth cycle of Artemisia chinensis. Dormant state of golden amber in winter. In April, the golden mackerel woke up and began to grow. In May and June, the temperature reached the suitable growth temperature of 2530 ℃, and the golden fish entered the peak growth period. When the temperature exceeded 35 ℃ from July to August, Jinyi went into summer dormancy. When the temperature dropped to 30 ℃ in September, the golden fish woke up again and began to grow again. If it is well managed in autumn, it may grow faster than in spring. The temperature dropped in the middle and last ten days of November, and the golden amber gradually entered the dormant period. At this point, the annual growth of Jinji came to an end.

3. Illumination requirements of golden amber ball

The cultivation of alpinia mandshurica should try its best to meet its demand for sunshine. except for indoor maintenance in winter, it should be placed in a sunny place all day in spring, summer and autumn. If it is kept indoors for a long time, it will affect its body color and long thorns, sphere deformity and metamorphosis, resulting in the loss of ornamental value. When entering the house in winter, you should put it in the sunny place on the windowsill and turn the basin for a period of time to make the sphere receive light evenly. When the hot sun shines directly in the middle of summer, it should be properly shaded. The author's approach is to cover the upper part of the golden vault with colored plastic bags to protect the furry dome from the rain, and then use large plastic bags with balls and basins to cover them and put them in the place where the outdoor sun has been exposed for the longest time. When the heat is high in summer, remove the large plastic bag to avoid the ball rot caused by dampness in the bag. After removing the bag, the basin ball is in a ventilated environment, and the sphere grows well.

4. Watering requirements for golden amber balls

Although Jinzhu is resistant to drought, it is not without water. Some golden oysters have never been raised or even shrunk, which is related to not watering them for a long time. Golden mackerel should be given sufficient water in spring and autumn, and water moderately in winter and summer dormancy. Watering 4, 5 days or once a week in the early growth stage should be watered from the edge of the basin, preferably at 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning or 4 or 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Tap water had better be kept for 2 days before watering. From late April to June, the water demand of Jinfu increased, watering once in the morning and once in the evening, and should be watered thoroughly. During the plum rain in June, beware of the pot soil getting too wet, resulting in rotting roots. In July and August, Jinzhu goes into summer dormancy, so it is necessary to control watering. From late September to October, Jinzhu entered the growing period again, watering once every 3 or 4 days. The growth of juniper tends to stagnate in November, and it can be watered once every 10 days. In December, the golden mackerel went into dormancy without watering to enhance its cold resistance.

5. Fertilization requirements for golden amber balls.

Thin fertilizer should be applied frequently once a week in spring. Once a day in May, June 4 and 5, the concentration can be slightly higher. Do not apply fertilizer when it is hot in summer. It can be applied once a week in September and October, and there is no fertilization from November to the following spring. Fertilizer should be diluted with water after poultry, fish residue or poultry manure is cooked, it should be carried out after 9: 10 a.m. or 5: 00 p.m., and then watered every other day after fertilization.

How to raise the golden amber ball

1. The golden amber ball needs enough light.

Adequate light is the biggest help to develop a healthy and beautiful golden amber ball. When the sun is full, the golden amber ball grows stronger and brighter. Basically, the structure of the whole sphere will produce different effects because the surface and the top of the sphere are affected by different degrees of light, so that the photosynthetic effect of different parts of the ball is different.

However, the effects of light are not always positive. Sometimes, under the influence of strong light, the lower part of the sphere of the golden amber ball may have been dormant, but the top of the plant is still growing. At this time, the growth of the plant will be abnormal, grow a gourd shape, reduced ornamental.

2. The golden amber ball needs to be covered with plastic film

If you want to make the ball of golden amber more beautiful, you need to take some measures to prevent it from growing into a gourd in summer.

When the summer temperature is high, a round plastic film can be covered around the growth section of the top. This film can inhibit the growth of the top of the golden amber ball and change the growth environment of the top. The fluff on the top is brighter and thicker.

In addition, by using this method, the humidity of the growth of the golden amber ball can be balanced and the sphere becomes round.

3. The Golden Amber Ball needs to take other measures.

Another way is to often turn the flowerpot of the golden amber ball, so that when the whole golden amber ball is growing, it can be uniformly exposed to the sun, which can prevent it from growing.

During the growth period, it is necessary to maintain sufficient water and fertilize regularly, so that the golden amber ball will have sufficient nutrients to grow healthily and beautifully.

When will the golden amber ball blossom

The flowering of golden amber balls is not very common, because only carefully preserved golden amber balls can blossom.

If the growth age of the golden amber ball is too young, it is unlikely to blossom, because only the adult golden amber ball will bloom, and it usually takes 20 or even 30 years for the golden amber ball to mature.

Can the golden amber ball be hydroponically cultivated?

The golden amber ball can be hydroponically cultivated, and the hydroponic golden amber ball is more bright and beautiful. The best time for hydroponic cultivation is in spring and autumn.

Although the golden amber ball is large, it is not born with such a big size, but it can fully mature through slow growth and development. it takes a very long time to develop from a normal-sized cactus to a large cactus, so it takes a lot of patience.
