Bear Boy how to raise Bear Boy breeding methods and matters needing attention

Bear Boy is a relatively small kind of succulent, its color is common in green, the edge is red, very ornamental value. Bear Boy is currently selling well in the market, and many people like to buy a pot and raise it at home. Then before breeding, we need to have an in-depth understanding of it.

How to raise a bear boy

1. Soil. The sandy soil which requires medium fertility and good drainage can be mixed with coarse sand or vermiculite, garden soil and rotten leaf soil.

2. Light. Bear Boy likes warm, dry, sunny places and can withstand the high temperature of 30 degrees. Bear Boys should be placed in sunny places at ordinary times. Sufficient light can shorten the distance between leaves, thicken leaves and enhance ornamental quality. If it is too dark, the leaves of the plant will become soft and weak, and the internodes will grow, so that the villi on the surface will lose luster. However, when the temperature is higher than 35 degrees, it should be properly shaded to avoid the scorching sun to burn the leaves and affect the viewing.

3. Reproduction. The common breeding method of bear boy is cutting. the best choice for reproduction is spring and autumn, and the temperature is about 23 degrees, when bear boy stops dormant and begins to grow, which is helpful to improve the survival rate of the plant. When the bear boy breeds, choose the branches with full healthy leaves to cut off the branches under 4-6 pairs of plants and dry the branches in a cool and ventilated place. Insert the branches of the dried wound into the soil and wait for the roots in a cool and ventilated place, because the branches have no roots at this time, and exposure to the sun will cause a large amount of evaporation of water in the plant leaves and cause the plant to dry up. The best soil for branch cutting is vermiculite + perlite + peat soil so as to facilitate the rooting of plants.

Breeding methods and points for attention of Bear Boy

Methods:

1. Plant type: change the basin every spring. When the plant is 15 cm high, the heart must be removed to promote branching. When the plant growth is too high, it needs to be pruned to reduce the plant type. Cuttings should be renewed after 4-5 years.

2. Watering: watering is carried out every 2 weeks during the growing period to keep the basin soil moist. Spray around the plant when it is hot in summer. Winter enters the dormant period, and the basin soil remains dry.

3. Fertilization: fertilize once a month. Use diluted cake fertilizer or "Huiyou" 15-15-30 special fertilizer for potted flowers. If there is not enough light and too much fertilizer and water, it will cause the stem node to elongate.

Note:

The main thing to pay attention to is the maintenance of summer, when the bear boy will go into a dormant state, gradually reduce the amount of water, the bear boy dormant period had better not direct sunlight, can be placed in astigmatism environment, increase ventilation, to reduce the hot and humid state. Spraying water to the bear boy can wash the dust and make the leaves cleaner. Be careful not to let the water stay in the center of the leaves for a long time, or there will be a rotten heart.

Why did the bear boy lose his leaves?

Too much watering. One is too much watering in the dormant period, and the other is too much watering and stagnant water in the growing period.

During the dormant period, the bear boy basically does not grow and does not need too much water. If the soil is not watered and the soil is wet, the bear boy's rhizome is easy to rot, resulting in leaf shedding.

During other growth periods, too much watering will also cause root rot, or even grow, long stems and leaflets can not get sufficient nutrients, yellowing, wilting and shedding is inevitable.

What should the bear boy do when he loses his leaves?

1. Dormant period. If the bear boy is dormant, don't make a fuss. It's normal to lose leaves. Do not touch the leaves casually, under normal circumstances, as long as do not touch, the leaves are just a little wilted, control watering, timely ventilation. As soon as the summer passes, the leaves will slowly recover and do not need too much operation.

2. Loosen the soil and ventilation. If too much watering leads to the loss of leaves, you should be careful and try to reduce watering. In addition to the rest of the dormant period, the moisture in the soil can be reduced by means of ventilation, basking in the sun and loosening the soil. If the bear boy wilts seriously, you can take off the plant, dry the roots, let part of the moisture out of the soil, and then replant it.

Bear Boy's breeding needs to pay attention to its temperature, although it likes to grow in a warm environment, but it can not be in the summer high temperature in the direct sun! If the bear boy in the breeding of the phenomenon of falling leaves, it is necessary to see if it is in a dormant period, if not, then it should be considered that the reason is too much water.
