The latest black mage breeding methods and precautions

Planting environment

The Black Master prefers a warm, dry and sunny environment, resistant to drought, not cold, and slightly resistant to semi-shade. Can be planted with fertile and well-drained and breathable soil, such as volcanic ash is more ideal. Growing in the cool season, dormant in summer but not for a long time. Propagation can be cut off the rosette leaf disk in early spring, and tillering buds will appear on the remaining stems. If the cuttage in early summer not only affected the survival rate, but also sprouted less on the stem. It is not easy to propagate by cutting leaves.

The black mage grows better when the weather is cool, and there will be dormancy in summer (the dormant period can be half-shaded), the soil should be fertile and loose, the light should be sufficient, and the watering should not be too frequent. When dormant, the plant state should be observed according to the air temperature, the watering times should be reduced accordingly, and the semi-shade should be maintained properly. Spring and autumn is the main growth stage, and the management of water and fertilizer should be strengthened properly. Winter according to their own conditions combined with plant status to irrigate, and pay attention to cold prevention, indoor heating facilities, pay attention to strengthen the light, according to the growth of the corresponding watering.

Reproduction method

Strong and fleshy stems can be cut during the growth period and planted in vermiculite or sandy soil. Use fertile and well-drained and breathable cultivation soil, such as volcanic ash is more ideal. Growing in the cool season, dormant in summer but not for a long time. Propagation can be cut off the rosette leaf disk in early spring, and tillering buds will appear on the remaining stems. If the cuttage in early summer not only affected the survival rate, but also sprouted less on the stem. It is not easy to propagate by cutting leaves.

Management and maintenance

The plant has a short dormant period at high temperature in summer, when the plant growth is slow or completely stagnant, can be maintained in a well-ventilated place to avoid long-term rain, and slightly shaded, controlled watering, and do not apply fertilizer. Spring, autumn and early summer are the main growing periods of the plant, which should be given sufficient sunlight. Although it can grow in the semi-shade, it will become dark green near the growing point, and the dark purple of the leaves in other parts will also become light brown, affecting ornamental. In addition, excessive nitrogen fertilizer in the soil and overgrowth of plants will also cause this phenomenon. Therefore, usually make the pot soil a little drier, let the plant grow a little slower but will get a better effect. In winter, if the lowest temperature is not less than 10 ℃, it can be watered normally to make the plant continue to grow, but there is no need to apply fertilizer; if it can not maintain such a high temperature, control watering and make the plant dormant, it can also withstand the low temperature of 3 ℃ and 5 min. When the basin is changed every 1-2 years, the basin soil is required to be fertile and has good drainage. 2 parts of coarse sand or vermiculite, 1 part of rotten leaf soil and 1 part of garden soil are often used after mixing. If an appropriate amount of plant ash or bone powder is added as base fertilizer, the effect is better.
