How to plant the latest Dichondra repens

Now potted plants are very popular in cities. Dichondra, as a kind of potted plants with great ornamental value, has been widely planted. Do you know how Dichondra is planted when it is placed in front of potted plants? Let's learn about its artificial large-scale planting together with the pro-agricultural network.

1. Breeding

Dichondra repens is often propagated by seeds when it is planted on a large scale, so breeding is a very important thing. The seeds of Dichondra repens, like many other seeds, need to be soaked in clean water before planting. Because Dichondra seeds absorb water quickly, they can be soaked for 2-3 hours. Soak after the completion of sowing, sowing should be evenly placed on the soil surface, not too dense, no need to press the soil, directly sprinkle soil to cover up, so that the soil permeability is high, the seed germination rate is high.

2. Soil preparation

To start transplanting after the seeds germinate, the transplanted soil does not need to be too deep, about 20 cm, because the root distribution of Dichondra is relatively shallow. Some weeds and their roots are the main cleaning objects, so that the nutrition of Dichondra repens can be prevented from being robbed. Some lumps of soil must be broken up, otherwise the development of the root of Dichondra will be hindered. When the land is leveled, some fertilizers should be added properly to maintain the fertility of the soil, and drainage channels should be left in the middle of the soil. Each planting area should be a little smaller, leaving an aisle in the middle to facilitate management.

3. Fertilization

The initial growth of Dichondra is also inseparable from the maintenance of fertilizer, generally when transplanting fertilizer should be applied, mainly urea at this time. It is suggested that the second topdressing should begin in two weeks, when the fertilizer is mainly chemical fertilizer, and calcium superphosphate is a kind of fertilizer that can maintain the ornamental properties of Dichondra repens. The amount of fertilizer applied per square meter is about 100 grams, and it is mixed with clear water. The time of topdressing is controlled at 2-3 times a week. For those with poor development, some nitrogen and potassium fertilizers can also be applied properly to keep Dichondra repens healthy.

4. Management

The management of Dichondra is very important, because the initial Dichondra is very fragile, it is easy to wither due to light or temperature. Dichondra prefers a cool, humid environment, especially in the early days to control the light, a few hours a day is enough. In the case of the formation of plates in the soil, loosen the soil in time, and then irrigate clear water. Dichondra is a scattered plant, there is no main growth direction, so some too prominent growth parts should be removed in time, so it can effectively maintain its ornamental.

The potted price of Dichondra is still good, and the planting profit is also very high. However, when we breed, we should properly control the size of Dichondra, too large will seriously affect its beauty, but also more difficult to feed. After all, when it is cultivated in pots, the nutrients it can provide are limited, and no one will fertilize regularly after purchase.
