Culture methods and matters needing attention of Dryopteris Dryopteris how to raise Dryopteris

Dryopteris Dryopteris is a common plant, its leaves are relatively small, from a distance, it used to be a bit similar to the leaves of coriander. Raising Dryopteris at home can purify the air, so many people like to buy a pot for breeding. However, when breeding, there are many skills.

How to raise Dryopteris

1. Choice of potted soil first of all, we have to choose this potted soil. The first choice is to mix the mountain forest soil with half of the garden soil.

2. Watering and fertilization during the growing season, watering should be sufficient to promote its growth. Reduce watering in winter to ensure that the basin soil is slightly moist, and root rot can easily occur at low temperature and high humidity.

3. Fertilization skills in winter, because the temperature is low, the overall physiological activity is not exuberant, therefore, it is best to apply less fertilizer or simply stop fertilization in winter, so as to ensure that the plant can survive the winter safely.

4, put the position into the room after winter and put it in the light scattered place, pay attention to the direct sunlight, if you want to make it safe through the winter, keep it at room temperature for about 10 ℃. Stay indoors in the sunny place in winter. Not cold-resistant, when the overwintering temperature is not lower than 5 ℃, the leaves will appear cold injury symptoms.

Culture methods of Dryopteris Dryopteris

1. Soil: Dryopteris likes loose, permeable and fertile calcareous sandy loam. when potted, the cultivated soil can be mixed with loam, rotten leaf soil and river sand.

2. Temperature: Dryopteris likes to be warm, and the suitable temperature for environmental growth is 13-22 ℃. It is excellent to plant in spring in the south, and it is also possible in the north, but because Dryopteris is not resistant to high temperature, the maintenance methods are also different.

3. Lighting: the fern likes the semi-shady environment. Do not let the fern shine directly in the sun. It is suitable to grow in the semi-shade.

4. Watering: clematis like to be moist and should be watered more during the growing period. when the weather is hot, the leaves should be sprayed or watered to maintain high air humidity and clear leaf patterns and emerald green leaves.

5. Fertilization: apply thin liquid fertilizer 2-3 times a month, do not stain the leaf surface when applying fertilizer, so as not to cause rotten leaves. Because of the calcium-loving habit of Dryopteris, basin soil should add appropriate amount of lime and broken eggshell, and the effect of often applying calcareous fertilizer will be better. It is necessary to reduce watering in winter and stop fertilizing.

6. Insect pests: potted Dryopteris, often with leaf blight, can be controlled with Bordeaux liquid at the initial stage, 1000-1500 times solution of methyl topiramate can be used to control severe cases, and 1000 times solution of omethoate can be used to control plants damaged by scale insects.

7. Pruning: after autumn, as the temperature drops, Dryopteris will grow slowly, and the old leaves will gradually turn yellow, so cut them off.

Matters needing attention in Dryopteris culture

1. Dryopteris should be planted or changed in spring. When changing the basin, be careful not to hurt the root system, avoid the wind blowing, and replace half of the new soil. Keep the basin soil moist and appropriate air humidity after changing the basin.

2. Due to the rapid growth of the leaves of Dryopteris, some of the old leaves are often cut off in the growing season. When the leaves are too dense, Dryopteris not only loses its elegant form, but also its new leaves will die due to lack of light, which is easy to form hollow phenomenon and need to be pruned in time.

3. When withered leaves are found in the process of maintenance, the withered leaves of Dryopteris should be cut off in time to keep the plants fresh and beautiful and conducive to the germination of new leaves.

Propagation methods of Dryopteris Dryopteris

1. Ramet propagation of Dryopteris. Dryopteris can be propagated in four seasons indoors, but generally in early spring, the mother plant is taken out of the basin, its rhizome is cut off, so that each piece has part of the rhizome and leaves, and then planted in a small basin, the rhizome is covered with mixed soil, and then irrigated and cultured in a wet environment, a new plant can be obtained.

2. Spore propagation of Dryopteris. Dryopteris can also be propagated by spores, disinfecting peat and fine sand as substrates in the oven at high temperature to kill germs and weed seeds, then putting the sterilized soil into a shallow sowing basin, cutting leaves with mature spores, concentrating spores and evenly sowing them in the shallow sowing pot without covering the soil, covered with glass sheets, soaking water from the bottom of the basin, keeping the soil moist, and placing it in a semi-shady environment of 20-25 ℃. The spores can germinate into prothalli in about a month, and can be planted after the basin is full.

When raising Dryopteris, we must pay attention to temperature, light, soil and so on. The luck in breeding also needs very strong pest control. There are many breeding methods of Dryopteris Dryopteris, you can choose a suitable one, as introduced above, you can learn more about it.
