Yushu can also continue to produce white flowers full of branches, cutting propagation can also be mastered by beginners.

Yushu is a common indoor potted succulent plant, it is a very enduring plant, does not need to be taken care of often, some friends can raise it for decades, some can even continue to blossom, Yushu full of brilliant white flowers, looks particularly gorgeous, if you want to promote the continuous growth of Yushu, you need to master the following conservation skills.

The maintenance of Yushu must not be watered frequently, it needs very little water, its leaves and stems are full of water, if there is more water, it is easy to cause rotten roots, leaves will continue to turn yellow and fall.

Especially when the summer temperature is high and the winter is cold, Yushu is in the dormant period and absorbs very little water. If you want to control watering, you can supply water once for more than half a month, even in the growing season. We also need to wait for the soil to be completely dry before replenishing water.

In order to maintain Yushu, we must use sandy soil with loose air permeability and good drainage, which can be cultivated directly with cactus soil, and the soil can be mixed with river sand with compost soil. the general type is to use peat soil with perlite and add some mature organic fertilizer appropriately.

The cultivation of Yushu should use a flowerpot with good drainage, the bottom of the pot should have a large drainage hole, the bottom of the basin can be covered with some broken tiles, and then soil can be added to prevent the basin soil from blocking the drainage hole.

If you want to breed Yushu, it is usually propagated directly with leaves or cut branches. It is a succulent plant that is very easy to reproduce, and its leaves can take root and sprout without watering on the soil.

With the continuous growth of Yushu, the bottom of its rhizome will continue to Lignification. At this time, we must pay attention to changing the basin regularly, so that the root system of Yushu has enough space to grow, and the branches and leaves can be trimmed properly when changing the basin to avoid excessive exuberance. It can also promote continuous branching.

If Yushu has more branches and the plant growth is very exuberant, it can cut too many branches and use the cut branches for cutting propagation. Of course, we should choose the right time, which is the most suitable in the spring and autumn season. The Summer Solstice is not suitable for cutting propagation because the temperature is too high and the winter temperature is too low.

Cutting propagation with too high temperature in summer can easily lead to root rot, even if it survives, it is difficult to restore growth. Cutting off the trunk of a tree must not immediately carry out cutting propagation, must dry the wound, and remove the excess branches to avoid having too many branches and leaves, otherwise it will consume a lot of nutrients, affect health, and more easily lead to plant withering.

Of course, you can transplant Yushu directly into a larger container, after all, cutting and pruning, cutting propagation also has a certain danger. If not handled properly, spiders are easily infected with fungal diseases and easily cause rot. if you want to improve the rooting power of branch cuttings, you should not only cut off the excess branches and leaves, but also apply some rooting powder at the bottom to promote better rooting.

A cut branch should be placed in a ventilated and shaded place to dry for two or three days, and then cut into the slightly dry soil after the wound has fully healed. Do not rush to water, but can be kept by the windowsill. The temperature is kept at about 20 degrees, and watering will be carried out after 5 to 7 days.

The cutting propagation of Yushu should not be in a hurry to see the light either. Generally, the light can be seen slowly after 1 to 2 weeks. At first, you can not give too much direct light. You can first give some scattered light, and then slowly increase the time of illumination. When the temperature is too high in summer, it should be properly shaded. In winter, it can be placed on the windowsill facing south. There is more light every day, but the leaves should avoid directly against the window and avoid frostbite. The minimum curing temperature should be kept above ten degrees.

The maintenance of Yushu can give a little more light in spring and autumn, move to the maintenance minimum temperature above 7 degrees in winter, and put it on the south-facing windowsill with more light every day and proper shade in summer.
