1. Cultivation methods of banyan trees

First, soil requirements: The soil for breeding banyan trees is generally selected to be loose, breathable and acidic black stone powder mud, or river sand, stone powder for construction, cinder, etc. The soil containing this substance will promote the growth of banyan trees.

Second, watering requirements: banyan tree demand for water is not particularly large, according to the weather can be different amount of watering. For example, it will not die if it is not watered for two or three days in dog days. On the contrary, excessive watering will affect the growth of banyan trees and even make their roots black and necrotic. So we keep it dry and wet when we water it.

Third, light requirements: Farming banyan trees will generally be placed in a ventilated and transparent place, banyan trees do not have too much demand for sunlight, but if the long-term sunlight is not sufficient, the plants will turn yellow and dry, and serious diseases and insect pests will occur and even die.

Fourth, fertilizer requirements: banyan more like fertilizer, reasonable fertilization will make banyan growth more lush. In general, we will choose decomposed human and animal dung urine or cooked cake fertilizer as topdressing, these fertilizers do not contain chemical components, more promote the absorption of banyan trees.

Second, the precautions for banyan farming

First, not too much watering. Ficus watering too much will affect its normal growth, so we must pay attention not to pour too much water, only in the pot when the soil is dry and not wet can be watered, and can not be watered thoroughly, to stop at an appropriate time.

Second, the light demand is not enough. Although the banyan tree is an indoor plant and does not need much light, it does not mean that it does not need sunlight. Many people mistakenly think that banyan trees do not need light, in fact, this is wrong, banyan trees in sufficient light environment will grow better.

Third, timely pest control. Common banyan pests are red spiders, scale insects, for these two pests we must pay attention to prevention and control. Red spiders are generally small, but the number is large, you can wash the whole plant with water, and then spray mites to kill chemicals. Scale insects are small in number, but the harm is particularly large, brush or wipe clean with a toothbrush, and then spray washing powder, 0.2% solution of essential balm for prevention and control.

Second, banyan tree daily precautions

Banyan bonsai is a symbol of vitality of the modeling landscape, so to maintain the continuation of its life growth has become the inevitable goal of studying the cultivation methods of banyan. Farming fig trees must be watered, fertilized, pruned, etc. in daily maintenance, which is not complicated.

Ficus cultivation methods need to pay attention to humidity and moisture: improper moisture damage to the fig tree. With the hand feeling basin soil situation, should adopt see dry see wet principle. Don't water it often, water it thoroughly. Too much watering can cause root rot and defoliation. Banyan tree maintenance in the north is more difficult, families should spray more leaf water, increase the humidity of the air around it.

Ficus breeding methods need to pay attention to the temperature: the suitable growth temperature of the fig should not be too large day and night, and it is easy to die of deciduous. Usually pay attention to place in the light transmission place, in summer should pay attention to appropriate shade.

Ficus cultivation methods need to pay attention to the cultivation of soil: loose, good water permeability of rotten leaf soil, usually the proportion of garden soil: humus soil: sand. The best place above bonsai and pot size consistent moss, so that it is beautiful, and secondly play a very good role in drainage and ventilation.

Ficus cultivation methods need to pay attention to fertilization: the growth of Ficus like fertilizer, but the number of fertilization will cause harm to the growth of Ficus. Fertilization varies according to the season.

Ficus breeding methods need to pay attention to pruning and maintenance: the growth season to plant to pick the heart and wipe buds, autumn for a large pruning, after not pruning, because the plant grows slowly in winter, should not be pruned in winter. The pruning of fig trees should be done by professionals, cutting off excessive branches, branches, weak branches, cross branches, etc. to make the whole beautiful.

It is easy to yellow and dry plants, leading to pests and diseases until death. Ficus is mainly distributed in the south of China, the main commodity produced in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province, acid soil, is a non-cold-resistant plants, in the north, generally winter but also into the greenhouse maintenance management.

One of the most important aspects of banyan farming is pest control:

Banyan pests are mainly aphids, red spiders, scales and so on. Spray the leaves with omethoate 500PPM or 50% sulphophoxide WP 1000 times solution. 0.1% of detergent water or essential oil is also very effective.

Third, the bonsai modeling method of banyan culture

Banyan because of more air roots, suitable for root exposure claw type, multi-Chiba bonsai. When making these two kinds of bonsai, cultivate its foundation in the first year, raise its essence, grow vigorously, and then lift the root into a shallow pot.

Banyan because of fast growth, roots developed, can do attached stone bonsai. Before cultivation, the trees are coiled into curved shapes of different sizes with metal wires, planted obliquely in soil pots, cultivated for 2-3 months, the aerial roots increase, the crown is shaped, then the seedlings are taken out, the cultivated soil is removed, and the seedlings are attached to the selected stones. This inch should pay attention to banyan and panzha tree stone take the same potential, root as far as possible embedded in the stone gap. Fasten roots with cotton strips or wire and grow in large, tall pots. Stone bonsai can be created according to the tree potential as far as possible to master the boulder type, through the stone type, paste stone type and other forms.

Why do banyan bonsai shed green leaves?

Banyan bonsai green leaves appear, we must pay attention to the surrounding environmental temperature, this situation generally occurs in the north of the situation will be more, if it is in winter, it is recommended to move the bonsai indoors. And keep it where sunlight hits. Of course, it is not ruled out that the cause of watering is caused. When watering is too frequent, it will also cause potted plants to rot roots and cause leaves to fall. The solution can be to replace the soil for the bonsai and trim off the rotten roots. After changing the soil, pour it according to the method of seeing dry and wet (if it is not dry, pour it thoroughly).
