How to raise the succulent plant Wasong? There are two ways to solve the problem of not blooming!

Wasong, also known as Tianwang tower grass and Xiang Tiancao, is a succulent plant that grows on tiles and looks like a pine tree. It is widely planted because of its very good appearance and the effect of treating hemorrhoids. Now many people like to raise a pot at home. How to raise the succulent plant Wasong? What if it doesn't blossom?

First, Wassong introduced:

1. What are the varieties of Wasong?

Huanghua Pinus elliottii, Pinus elliottii.

2. Where did Wassong grow?

Wasong is more common in rural areas, how long in tile houses and cottage roofs, stony slopes and rocks, vitality is very tenacious, generally in areas below 1600 meters above sea level can grow.

Second, how to raise Wasong?

Wasong is similar to other succulent plants, as long as it can grow with good water, fertilizer and light. The specific breeding methods are as follows:

1. Flowerpot selection: which flowerpot should be chosen?

Wasong likes to grow in an environment similar to the roof with tile seams, so try to choose flowerpots with larger caliber for breeding.

2. Transplanting: when is a good time to transplant?

(1) transplanting time: Pinus elliottii can be transplanted at any time. If it is transplanted in spring, it is best to choose rosette leaf clump pine, which can blossom in the same year after survival. If transplanting in summer and autumn, it is best to choose one-year-old seedlings.

(2) transplanting method: after selecting the pot, put some gravel at the bottom of the pot, then spread a layer of nutritious soil, put the seedlings of Pinus elliottii into the flowerpot, then sprinkle some nutritious soil, and finally put some coarse river sand. When mixing soil, it is best to mix peat and cinder into nutritious soil, in which gravel, nutrient soil and coarse river sand are placed at the ratio of 3:3:2, so as to provide a good growing environment for Wasong.

3. Aquaculture management technology: what are the requirements for water and fertilizer?

(1) Illumination requirements: Wasong likes light but is not resistant to strong light, and generally grows most vigorously in spring and autumn, so it is necessary to strengthen the illumination in spring and autumn and shade properly in summer to avoid sunburn.

(2) temperature requirements: Wasong does not require high temperature, heat-resistant and cold-resistant, but the winter temperature can survive the winter safely if the temperature is not less than five degrees below zero, but it does not matter if it is less than five degrees below zero, only stop watering when it is below minus 3 degrees. When it is below 0 degrees, it is necessary to keep the basin soil dry, so that it can survive the winter safely.

(3) Water requirements: Wasong is a succulent plant, which has higher requirements for water. It generally follows the way of "dry and thoroughly watered, do not dry and do not water", but do not water too much, so as not to cause rotting roots caused by stagnant water in the basin soil. In general, the water is watered 3-4 times a month in summer, and the amount of water is determined according to the growth of the plant in the rest of the month.

(4) ventilation requirements: after flowering in summer, the mother plant will die and the lateral buds will be dormant, so it is necessary to keep indoor ventilation so as not to dry up and die.

What if the tile pine does not blossom?

Normally, Wassong will blossom from August to September, but it will not blossom if it is not well managed, for the following reasons:

First, climate factors: due to the great differences in climate between the north and the south, the flowering time of many flowers in our country will be advanced or delayed, so if properly managed, wait patiently. In the north, for example, Wassong usually doesn't blossom until mid-late October.

Second, the invasion of insect pests: during the growth period, powdery mildew or whitefly will occur, and the invasion of both will lead to the failure of flowering.

Solution: humidity should be controlled from August to September in the southern region. If the humidity is too high, some carbendazim or trimethoprim can be sprayed on the surface of the plant. If there is a whitefly pest, it can be effectively controlled by spraying two times with chlorpromazine wettable powder or imidacloprid wettable powder.

Generally speaking, Wasong is good for breeding, as long as the selection of basin soil, management of moisture, light and other requirements can blossom normally. But if it is in the north, it usually doesn't blossom until mid-late October, so if it doesn't blossom, you can wait patiently. In addition, insect pests will also prevent the flowers from blooming, so we must strengthen prevention and control.
