How to cultivate the succulent plant, the propagation method of the succulent plant

Buddha seat lotus is very similar to Guanyin sitting lotus, so it is also called Guanyinlian. Buddha lotus is a very common kind of succulent plant, and many families like to grow it at home. So how can Buddha pedestal lotus be preserved in order to burst the basin? Next, let's go with the editor to understand the culture method of Buddha lotus!

How to raise the Buddha lotus and burst the pot quickly

1. Light. Buddha lotus likes sunny, cool, dry environment, except summer, other seasons should fully see the light, lack of light will lead to loose plant type, not compact.

2. Soil. Buddha lotus is cold-resistant and should live in soil with adequate nutrients, good drainage and air permeability. the soil ratio is generally as follows: 2 parts of commonly used rotten leaf soil, 1 part of coarse sand and 1 part of vermiculite.

3. Watering. When watering, we should grasp the principle of "no dry, no watering, watering thoroughly" to avoid long-term stagnant water causing rotten roots, but not excessive drought, otherwise the growth of Buddha lotus will slow down and the leaf color will be dim.

4. Fertilization. Apply fertilizer every 20 days or so, using mature rarefied liquid fertilizer or compound fertilizer with low nitrogen and high phosphorus and potassium. Fertilization is usually carried out in the sunny morning or evening, and in the evening or early morning after fertilization, it should be watered and watered thoroughly to dilute the residual fertilizer in the soil.

Propagation method of succulent plant Buddha lotus

1. The cutting method of the propagation of Buddha lotus.

During the growing period of Buddha's lotus, there are two situations.

If a small rosette has already grown under the big lotus pedestal, you can take it off and insert it directly into the basin if there is no root. if there is no root, apply "carbendazim" for a few days and wait for the wound to dry before planting. Keep a little moisture in the pot after planting, and it will sprout in two to three weeks.

If there is no small lotus growing under the lotus pedestal, its complete mature leaves can be laid on the moist sandy soil, with the leaves facing up and back down, without covering the soil, directly placed in a cool place, new leaves and roots will grow at the base of the leaves for about 10 days, and the roots will be buried in the soil, basked in the sun, properly watered and fertilized.

2. The sowing method of the propagation of Buddha lotus

After the seeds are collected, they are sown in a cold bed in early spring. It usually takes 6 weeks for 2 ℃ to germinate when the temperature is 10 ℃. When the temperature is 20 ℃, they can germinate in about 10 days. When the seedlings grow up, they are transplanted into flowerpots.

A large number of seedlings can be obtained by sowing at one time, but the growth is slow.

3. Tissue culture method for propagation of Buddha lotus.

Although the material required for rapid propagation of Buddha lotus by tissue culture is simple, but the steps are relatively tedious, it is generally used for industrial tissue culture with high success rate and many varieties.

Matters needing attention in the maintenance of Buddha lotus

1. Pay attention to the temperature change

The suitable temperature for the growth of Buddhist lotus is 20 ℃ 30 ℃, and the overwintering temperature is 15 mol. We should always pay attention to the change of temperature around the plant.

2. Keep the soil fertile

It is best to add plant ash and bone powder as base fertilizer to keep the soil fertile. Be careful not to splash fat and water on the leaves when fertilizing.

3. Shading at high temperature

When it is hot in summer, place the Buddha's lotus in a shady place to avoid exposure to the scorching sun. When shining in other seasons, change the direction of the basin every three or four days, so that each side of the pedestal lotus can be exposed to the sun. However, if the Buddha lotus is in a semi-overcast environment for a long time, the color of the leaf tip is easy to fade, affecting the ornamental.

The function value of Buddha lotus

1. Watch. Buddha pedestal lotus, also known as Guanyinlian, meat as its name, leaves ring, combined into a rosette-shaped shape. The leaf is flat and slender, and under full light, the tip and edge of the leaf will appear very gorgeous purplish red, which is of great ornamental value.

2. Purify the air. Succulent Buddha lotus has the effect of micro-absorption of toxic gases, so it is very environmentally friendly to put it indoors. Succulent lotus also has the effect of slightly humidifying and purifying the air environment.

3. Medicinal value in addition to ornamental and purification, Buddhist lotus also has high medicinal health care value. Buddha lotus tea can be refreshing, but pay attention to the dosage, excessive use will cause vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. The extract of fresh leaves has the effect of cooling and astringence. it can be used to relieve skin pain and can be added to bath water to nourish the skin. Buddha lotus can also be used to treat throat ulcers, oral diseases, bronchitis, burns, burns, mosquito bites, corns, shingles and other skin diseases.

As mentioned above, Buddha lotus can burst quickly if it is well preserved, so we should still pay attention to the planting and maintenance skills of Buddha lotus! Different from other succulent plants, Buddha lotus is not only beautiful, lovely and delicate, but also has certain medicinal and health effects.
