How to raise Huang Li?

Huang Li is a perennial succulent plant of the Sedum family, with short stems, fleshy leaves, closely arranged and rosette-shaped. It is often selected and cultivated as a small potted plant or co-planted with other plants in the pot. Decorated in the indoor living room, study, windowsill, etc., can make people feel happy, etc., let's take a look at Huang Li how to raise it!

The growth habits of Huang Li

Huang Li belongs to the dormant succulent plant in summer, but the dormancy period is not obvious, the light is not tolerant to shade, the plant type is easy to be loose in the case of insufficient light, the leaves are elongated, the leaf spacing increases, the color is not yellow, showing a state of overgrowth. Under sufficient light, the plant shape is compact, and the color will show a jelly-like yellow, a veritable yellow beauty. Huang Li is easy to produce lateral head, which is not only easy to sprout lateral buds in the axils of the leaves at the top of the plant, but also easy to sprout lateral buds on the semi-lignified stem of the fallen leaves.

The breeding method of Huang Li

The propagation of Huang Li mainly depends on plant lateral buds, leaf cuttings and beheading, and the new buds growing from the residual stem roots after beheading to continue the offspring, and it is very easy to grow lateral buds, and the survival rate is relatively high. Leaf cuttage is the first choice for propagation in greenhouse, and a large number of seedlings can be obtained. Spring is the season for the outbreak of lateral buds, when propagation and growth is the fastest. Huang Li can reproduce all the year round, and independent plants can grow if the small leaves are thrown into the soil or planted in the soil.

How to raise Huang Li?

1. Soil: if the soil requires loose, air and water permeability, the mixed soil of peat soil, culture soil and coarse sand can be selected to cultivate. Huang Li's soil can be mixed with peat cinder at the ratio of 3:7.

2, lighting: Huang Lixi light, not shade, slightly resistant to semi-shade, but the semi-shade for a long time is easy to grow, leaves loose. Spring and autumn are the growing periods, and the sun shines all day. Slightly dormant in summer. But shade measures should be taken in summer.

3. Temperature: the suitable temperature for growth is about 15-28 ℃. Plants above 30 ℃ in summer or below 5 ℃ in winter slowly enter dormancy. The overwintering temperature should be kept above 5 ℃, and good ventilation is beneficial to growth.

4. Watering: watering is dry before watering, do not water. Afraid of long-term rain and continuous watering. Water is watered 4 to 5 times a month in hot summer. In order to maintain the normal growth of the plant, too much water in summer is easy to rot. If the temperature is below 5 degrees in winter, the water will be cut off gradually. Keep the basin soil dry below 3 degrees and keep it not less than 3 degrees below zero as far as possible.

5, fertilization: less fertilization, generally choose the market has been diluted cactus liquid fertilizer, pay attention to fertilizer and water do not come into contact with fleshy leaves.

The reason for Huang Li's rotten roots

1. Overwatering: if too much water is watered, it will cause plant roots to rot due to lack of oxygen to a certain extent, and poor ventilation after watering is also one of the reasons.

2. Improper fertilization: Huang Li does not need a lot of fertilizer, and the nutrients in the soil are basically sufficient. If you fertilize regularly, whether you apply foliar fertilizer or root fertilizer, it will not cause some damage, resulting in poor root growth, resulting in rot.

3, soil viscosity: the singleness of the soil will also cause decay, if the soil is breathable, then the excess water will flow down and will not cause flooding, but the heavy stickiness and impermeability of the soil, coupled with too much watering, can easily cause rotten roots. If the soil is not loosened for a long time, the basin is changed, and the soil is hardened, it will also cause rotten roots.

What about Huang Li's rotten root?

1. When the root is rotten, take out the plant and cut off all the rotten parts until you see the fresh meat. Then spray carbendazim and dry it in a cool place for a few days. After the wound is dry, replant it with new soil, or plant it after hydroponic rooting. Be careful not to bask in the sun before taking root, or it will wither easily.

2. The plants whose roots are completely rotten and their leaves are yellow and withered are powerless. The rotten roots here seriously refer to plants with intact leaves. In this case, beheadings or leaves can be removed.

The reason why Huang Li's leaves turn yellow

1. The water is too large: Huang Li's thick leaves store a lot of water, which can be supported for a period of time without watering. If too much water, it will cause Huang Li's root to grow badly and cause the leaves to wilt and rot.

2. Black rot: the leaves fall off at a touch. Check the root in time to see if the stem near the soil is abnormal. If you find that the stem turns red or black, you should behead in time. Black rot will mainly appear the following phenomena, internal rot of the plant, plant lodging. The stem rotted, and black spots appeared at the base of the stem, which gradually expanded and spread. Fungal rot, brown and watery spots appear on the stems and leaves of the plant.

What if Huang Li's leaves turn yellow?

1. Disinfection: the disinfection mentioned here should be fully disinfected, including everything the plant comes into contact with, from a grain of sand to a flower pot and shovel. Wash hands carefully and wear gloves before operation.

2. Excision: cut off the infected part with a sharp knife, then stuff the wound with charcoal and sulfur and leave it in a cool place to dry. Replant according to different rotten parts. When the stem is rotten, the stem should be completely removed and then the branches will be inserted. In order to avoid fungal diseases, fungicides should be sprayed after resection to avoid recurrence.
