The difference between the fleshy plant apricot cultivation method and the precautions of the green ring and the branch apricot

Apricot is a kind of edible herb, because it tastes like spinach, so many people like to call it spinach. The branch apricot is a more common succulent plant, easy to grow in groups, the appearance is very small and lovely, plant friends often call it "little rabbit", it is easy to be loved. Do you also want to raise a pot of this lovely "meat"? Come with me to learn how to breed it.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of succulent plant apricot

I. Culture methods of succulent apricot

1. Lighting

Branch apricots like the warm sun, but can not be exposed to the sun, so pay attention to shading and ventilation for the seedlings in summer. When the weather is very hot, you can spray some water around to keep the air moist, and you can put a water plate at the bottom of the flowerpot to keep the bottom of the pot moist. In the cold winter, we should also let the branch apricot enjoy sufficient light, move the branch apricot to the corner where the sun can be seen, and pay attention to maintaining the wetness of the basin soil.

2. Fertilization

Branch apricot seeds are fertilized one to two months after germination. In the process of fertilization, we should pay attention to dilute the bought fertilizer as much as possible, choose to apply fertilizer by immersion irrigation, or not first. After the seedlings of branch apricots grow out, in order to let the seedlings absorb enough growth nutrients, they should be divided into pots in time. In addition, be careful not to water the seedlings immediately after dividing the basin, but only after a week.

3. Soil

The soil used for sowing branch apricot is loose and breathable, and the soil with good water conservation effect is needed for conservation. It is best to use mixed soil. The mixed soil can be composed of nutritious soil, coal ash, sand, plant ash and perlite with a ratio of 4 to 4, and vermiculite to perlite at 4:6:1.

II. Points for attention

Succulent plants themselves are basically made up of water. Plants that can store water by themselves can survive without much watering. On the contrary, if the water supply is too much, too much water can not be stored, it will cause rot and slowly wither. Therefore, when watering each time, we should pay attention to observe the state of the plant.

The difference between green halo and branch apricot

1. Shape

Blue ring shape: the leaves are translucent and grainy, with branches and easy to grow in groups. The flowers are generally white, the fruit is in the shape of Yuanbao, and the seeds are 50-150. Stem thick, fleshy articulate. Leaves fleshy, two-state, growing leaves slender opposite, often unconnected, dormant leaves short and thick, hemispherical, opposite leaves highly connected.

Branch apricot morphology: perennial fleshy shrubs, leaves are very fleshy, opposite, rod-shaped, covered with a transparent reflective bulge. The young stem is green, the old stem is dark red or brown, perennial branches are easy to Lignification, there is no obvious dormancy period.

2. Growth habits

Green halo: the growth is extremely slow, with only a pair of fleshy leaves for life, shaped like rabbit ears, and the old plant has a root, will enter a dormant state at high temperature, the leaves will wither, and there are no branches.

Stem apricot: the leaves are opposite, shaped like rabbits, but these leaves grow on the branches, unlike the blue halo, which grows on the root, so it is easier to distinguish.

Maintenance methods of branch apricot in four seasons

1. Summer maintenance

Summer is an important season for branch apricot culture. Branch apricot is more afraid of rain, but also afraid of high temperature and muggy heat. In summer, the temperature is generally very high, so branch apricot often goes into dormancy. Generally at this time, to put the branch apricot plants in a semi-shaded place, or to shade, pay attention to stop watering and fertilization, and to prevent rain.

2. Winter maintenance

Winter is a difficult season for branch apricots. The suitable temperature for the growth of branch apricot is between 15 ℃ and 25 ℃, so the temperature should be kept high in winter. The second is light. In winter, put the branch apricot in a place with plenty of light indoors. If you are spending the winter outdoors, you should pay attention to wrapping the plant, but you need to uncover it at noon to make it breathable.

3. Maintenance in spring and autumn

In spring and autumn, because the climatic conditions are similar, the method of cultivating branch apricot is very similar. However, the climate of these two seasons is more suitable for plant growth, so you don't need to pay special attention to the maintenance and keep the direct light.

In autumn, branch apricots are usually sown, keeping the temperature between 15 ℃ and 30 ℃.

Sowing and Propagation of Apricot in branches

1. Seed direct broadcast

The pericarp of apricot is thick, and the seeds are not easy to absorb water and germinate. It takes about 15-90 days for seeds to germinate without treatment. Therefore, in order to speed up the germination of seeds, the common method before sowing is to mix apricot seeds with 1-2 times of sand, grind them, then soak them in warm water of 40 ℃-45 ℃ for 20-30 hours, and then place them in 25 ℃ to moisturize and germinate. Then wait until the seed expands slightly and splits.

If we use seed direct broadcast, we usually use two methods: on-demand or strip broadcasting. If the strip sowing method is adopted, the row spacing of sowing is 50 cm. After sowing, cover a layer of fine soil, and then start to pour some water, so that it is OK. 2. Seedling raising and transplanting

If seedlings are raised and transplanted, sunny beds are generally used to raise seedlings. The method of raising seedlings is basically the same as that of strip sowing, but there is no need to stay, and the whole border should be spread evenly. When the seedlings grow 7-8 true leaves and the temperature is stable above 12 ℃, they can be transplanted and planted. Seedling transplanting is more seed-saving, and only 300 grams of seeds per mu is enough. The transplanting plant spacing is 30 cm and the row spacing is 40 cm.

The above is the editor to introduce to you the general content of apricot, I hope it will be helpful to you. The cultivation method of succulent apricot is not very difficult, like the warm growth environment, we should still give sufficient light in the breeding process, but avoid exposure.
