Culture methods and matters needing attention of the latest June snow

June snow is an evergreen small shrub of Rubiaceae. Because the florescence is mainly concentrated in June, it is called June snow. The ornamental value of June snow is relatively high, so it is very popular as a potted plant in our country. And June snow roots and leaves can be used in medicine, with soothing the liver and relieving depression, clearing heat and dampness and other effects. So how to raise snow in June? The following editor brings you the breeding methods and matters needing attention of June snow, let's have a look!

1. Soil selection

The growth capacity of June snow is relatively strong, is more drought-resistant, so in general, June snow on the soil is not very strict. However, in artificial planting, in order to ensure the ornamental and growth ability of June snow, the choice of soil is still very important. Therefore, before planting, we should choose the soil with rich humus, loose, sufficient fertility and strong permeability to plant, and the soil should be kept at partial acidity. After selecting the soil, we should pay attention to proper soil preparation, and then apply an appropriate amount of base fertilizer to improve the soil fertility and promote the growth of snow in June.

2. Methods of reproduction

The propagation method of June snow is mainly cutting and ramet, cutting propagation has no requirement for time, generally can be cut throughout the year. Hardwood cuttings are mainly carried out around February in spring and softwood cuttings in Meiyu season. The survival rate of cuttings in these two seasons is the highest. Ramet propagation needs to be carried out in the early stage of branch sprouting in spring each year, or after autumn after the plant stops growing. Using the cutting method, we should pay attention to proper watering after cutting to keep the soil moist, which can effectively improve the survival rate.

3. Water and fertilizer management

Watering is essential during the planting of snow in June. Keeping the soil moist can make the snow grow better in June. During the growing period, you need to water about once a day. If you encounter cloudy and rainy days, you can stop watering. The temperature is high in summer and the water evaporates quickly, so it needs to be watered about twice a year. After entering winter, it is necessary to reduce the amount of water to make it safe to survive the winter. Then we should pay attention to do a good job of fertilization, but we should pay attention to control the frequency and concentration of fertilization to avoid overgrowth of plants. In spring and autumn, light phosphate fertilizer is applied once in about 2-4 weeks, and farm manure is applied once every 3 weeks in autumn.

4. Points for attention

Every spring, June snow plants will sprout new buds, in order to ensure the appreciation of June snow, in time to wipe out excess new buds, keep about 4 new buds on it. If there are dead branches or old branches, we should also pay attention to proper cutting, which can not only avoid the growth of snow in June, but also reduce nutrition consumption. Then in the process of planting, we must pay attention to maintain a good ventilation environment, provide it with sufficient light, do a good job of weeding and so on. Provide a good growing environment for June snow.

The above is a brief introduction to the methods and matters needing attention of snow farming in June. The breeding method of June snow is relatively simple, but it can not be managed extensively, so we should pay more attention to some basic problems. That's all for today's introduction.
