How to raise the old pile

The nursing pile should use a larger basin to make its roots stretch. Then fertilization should focus on the application of nitrogen and potassium fertilizer to ensure the nutrition of the old pile, and attention should be paid to the principle of frequent application of thin fertilizer. In addition, to ensure sufficient light, the basin is slightly moist without stagnant water is also an important step to raise the old pile. The following is a detailed introduction to the breeding methods of succulent old piles.

Culture method of succulent old pile

1. Selection of basin

The old pile is generally larger, so it is necessary to use a larger pot, which is mainly to develop the succulent root system. If the pot is too small, then once the root system is full, it will be very difficult for the whole succulent plant to grow. However, the selection of the basin can not be too large, or use a large basin to raise small seedlings, which is very easy to rot roots. It is best to hang the beam according to the size.

two。 Fertilizer application

Succulent stems are not like woody plants that can increase with the age of the tree, succulent plants, once the stem is how thick, then the pile will be how thick, will not increase with the increase of meat age, that is, stereotyped. Therefore, when applying fertilizer, we should focus on the application of nitrogen and potassium fertilizer to ensure the nutrition of the old pile.

3. Light

Succulent plants are light-loving plants, and sufficient light can make succulent photosynthesis synthesize more nutrients for their own growth and development, but pay attention to shade in the hot summer sun to avoid sunburn.

4. Water control

Lao Zhuang prefers dry environment to dampness. However, there are three kinds of treatment for the old pile: first, for the old pile with a large number of fibrous roots, the fibrous root needs to be trimmed to retain the main root, put it in a ventilated place to dry (the basin soil is semi-wet), and water it after 5-10 days according to the situation. Second, there is no fibrous root, the trunk Lignification is serious, the main root is lifeless, this situation requires proper cutting of the main root, cut out the fresh part, dry in the ventilated place and put on the basin (basin soil is semi-wet), and watering after 5-10 days according to the situation. The third is to cut the head pile, directly without roots, dry in a ventilated place and put on the basin (the basin soil is semi-wet). This succulent plant with long roots is less watered than the succulent plant with long roots, and then wait ten and a half days and a month until the soil is thoroughly dry and then watered. This cycle will take root in more than a month.
