How to raise potted green pineapple?

Green radish is not known as devil vine, golden kudzu, golden vine, etc. it is a large evergreen vine of the unicorn leaf of Araceae, with strong entanglement, developed air roots, beautiful leaves, evergreen four seasons and long branches. It can not only be attached to the greening of columns and tree trunks tied with brown, but also be cultivated into a dangling shape to be placed in the study, windowsill, wall and wall. Let's take a look at how to raise potted green apples.

Growth habits of green pineapple

Green radish negative plants, like hot and humid environment, avoid direct sunlight, like shade. Like humus-rich, loose, fertile, slightly acidic soil. The overwintering temperature should not be lower than 15 ℃. It is called "the flower of life" because of its tenacious vitality. Spread down the green branches and leaves, very easy to meet. In indoor cultivation, whether it is potted or folded a few stems, hydroponic culture can grow well. It can not only be attached to the column made of brown, but also can be cultivated into a hanging shape to be placed in the study, windowsill, or directly potted.

Propagation methods of green pineapple

1. Cuttings: cuttings should choose semi-lignified branches with strong growth and no diseases and insect pests, cut into 10-13 cm long, cut into oblique notches at the lower notch, leave 2-3 leaves at the upper end, and cut off half of the leaves to reduce water evaporation and facilitate the survival of cuttings.

2. Substrate: the cutting substrate requires loam or sandy soil with high humus content, which is loose and breathable, well drained, and it is best to use vermiculite, which can take root quickly and have a high survival rate. Disinfect the soil with 2% formalin or 5% potassium permanganate before insertion.

3. Cuttage: the lower end of the prepared cuttings was quickly dipped in ABT rooting powder or indolebutyric acid, then inserted into the prepared substrate, soaked into the soil and watered thoroughly, so that the cuttings were in close contact with the substrate, and then covered with plastic film.

4. Management: pay attention to keeping the soil moist and higher air temperature after insertion, the soil moisture is about 50%, and the air humidity is 80% 90% is the best. At the initial stage of cutting, the shade degree of the shade shed is kept at about 80%, which can not only prevent the strong light from direct exposure, but also ensure sufficient scattered light, so as to facilitate the photosynthesis of cuttings with leaves, which is conducive to rooting, and basically takes root after 20 days of cutting.

How to raise potted green pineapple?

1. Illumination: the original growth condition of green pineapple is in the forest sheltered by towering trees, and the positive direction is not strong. However, in the north of autumn and winter, in order to supplement the deficiency of temperature and photosynthesis, its illuminance should be increased. At the same time, open windows as little as possible when the temperature is low, because the leaves may be frostbitten in a very short period of time.

2. Humidity: green pineapple grows faster in the environment with high air humidity. It is recommended to maintain indoor humidity and humidifier can be used to increase air humidity. A transparent plastic bag can be used to cover the plant to create a small greenhouse effect, but not more than two hours.

3. Temperature: although the green pineapple does not like the hot sun, it is still very sensitive to the temperature. The temperature is too low and it is easy to be frostbitten. The room temperature is about 20 degrees. If the leaves of the green pineapple are not too close to each other, and the indoor temperature is controlled above 10 degrees, the green pineapple can survive the winter safely.

4. Watering: the amount of water in autumn and winter should be strictly controlled according to room temperature. Before heating, the temperature is low and the soil evaporation of the plant is slow. In order to reduce watering, the amount of water should be controlled between the original 1pm, 4pm, 1max and 2. Even after heating, watering should not be too frequent, watering should be less watered into the basin, and should be oozed by brown silk. In addition, water should be sprayed to the aerial root growth of the brown column to reduce the insufficient water absorption of the root caused by rapid evaporation. Winter water to dry after a day of water is better, the water is too cold easy to damage the roots.

5. Fertilization: because the nutrients absorbed by indoor culture are not as sufficient as outdoor, it is recommended to apply fertilizer every half a month. You can buy special fertilizer for green pineapple on the market. Or ask the florist to help choose fertilizer.

6. Diseases and pests: green pineapple plants are easily affected by pests and pathogens. Typical pests affect green pineapple, including pink beetles, red spiders, shell insects and so on. Powder beetles are usually the most common and can be killed with alcohol, removed with cotton swabs, or removed by hand.

What if the green pineapple leaves turn yellow?

1, lack of water, withered at the edge of the leaf: if there is not enough water in the green apple soil, it will cause the edge of the leaf to wither, dry and yellow, and the leaves will fall off. Therefore, it is necessary to pour enough water on the green apple at this time.

2, too much water, the leaf surface is dark yellow: if the water in the green apple soil or container is too sufficient, it will also cause the leaf yellow, the leaf surface will appear dark yellow, and even the root will rot, so stop watering at this time, and loosen the soil appropriately.

3. Direct sunlight and wilting leaves: green pineapple grows in a cool environment. Therefore, if the green pineapple is exposed to strong light for a long time, it is easy to cause the leaves to wilt and wither, and then turn yellow and fall off. At this time, you need to put the green apple in a cool and bright place and water it properly.

4. The light is dark and the new leaves are yellow: if the green pineapple is placed in a dark and unventilated place for a long time, then the green leaves will be yellow due to the lack of chlorophyll, especially the new leaves will be yellow, at this time, you need to put the green pineapple in a cool place with sufficient light.
