The growth habits of the stars

Mantianxing is a plant growing in the Mediterranean region, so it is cold-tolerant but not drought-tolerant. The high temperature and rainy environment is the most suitable growth environment, the best temperature is between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius; below 10 degrees Celsius will fall into a dormant state; above 30 degrees Celsius, the growth will stagnate. Like fertile soil, loose soil, the PH value of the soil is 7-8. Light is not tolerant to shade, dampness is not tolerant to drought, and it is a long-day flower, so it should be treated with supplementary light properly in the process of promoting flowering.

The mode of reproduction full of stars

The propagation of Mantianxing mainly includes sowing and cutting propagation. The so-called sowing and breeding method is to take the fruit after the seed is ripe, and then sow it. Generally, it is most beneficial to sow in mid-September or in March of the following year. Of course, autumn sowing has higher flowering quality and longer flowering period.

The so-called cutting propagation method refers to the selection of well-growing plants for tissue culture, many times to pick the heart to promote lateral branches. Then when the temperature is suitable, cut 5 to 6 cm branches of the mother plant for cuttings, and then control the temperature and humidity within a certain range, shading treatment, generally half a month later can take root. It should be noted that the control of temperature and humidity must be verified. Generally speaking, the relative humidity is kept above 95% and the temperature is controlled above 15 ℃.

How to raise the stars?

Mantianxing, a perennial herbaceous flower of Caryophyllaceae, formerly known as double-petal carnation, alias broken copper coin, slender stems and branches, luxuriant branches, rich three-dimensional sense, with numerous small flowers, often used as a foil for bouquets, baskets and flower arrangements, is one of the household decoration plants that people like to use. we should pay attention to the following points in the cultivation of Mantianxing:

The main results are as follows: 1. The loose soil is the best: the requirement of Mantianxing culture on soil is not high, generally, it is fine with slightly alkaline calcareous soil or gravelly loam with good drainage.

2. Water should be controlled: there is more demand for water in the seedling stage, and sufficient water and fertilizer are still needed after picking the heart, so that the plant can gradually change from the vegetative growth period to the reproductive growth period, that is to say, enter the protruding stage (flowering stage). Until the spikelet is drawn out, the moisture content of the petals should be slightly reduced when the petals grow out, so as to prevent the quality and pumping capacity of the cut flowers from decreasing, and to promote the flowers to bloom neatly. Especially in the hot and humid season in summer, whether the water control is appropriate or not is often the main factor that determines the success of the cultivation.

3. The temperature should not be too high: the daily temperature of 25 ℃ is the best. If the temperature is more than 30 ℃, the time or days is too long, it is easy to increase the probability of abnormal flowers. The best night temperature is 10-15 ℃, if it is lower than 10 ℃, and then less than 10 ℃, coupled with short days in autumn and winter, it is easy to cause dormancy or clustering.

4. The light should be sufficient: the light has a far-reaching effect on the flowering of the stars, especially in winter. If the whole sky star is exposed to 80-24Klux in summer, all the plants can blossom. The difference is that the less the illuminance received, the less the number of flowers will be. All the plants could blossom when irradiated with 58Klux in winter, while those with 24Klux could not blossom even if they were given full light period for 24 hours continuously.

5. Fertilizer should be applied regularly: all stars like fertilizer, but water is taboo. Topdressing should be done by stages after planting, mainly nitrogen fertilizer in the early stage and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in the later stage. Water management should be strictly controlled, excessive wet growth becomes weak, stagnant water will cause root rot death. Watering should be controlled when the plant grows to 30 cm, especially at the budding stage and drier at the flowering stage. Shelter should be built for cultivation in rainy areas.

6, pest treatment: the phenomenon of diseases and insect pests is rare, generally occasional aphids or snails. At this point, you can use wind oil essence dilution or neutral washing powder to spray, this method can kill aphids. For snails, it can be sprayed in the basin soil with Miaoling granules. Pay attention to the root rot disease to prevent the phenomenon of stagnant water in the basin soil, and with green cream copper EC or root rot Ling 800 times liquid can be irrigated.

All over the sky is a very common herbal flower, lush flowers feel very fresh, romantic, often potted to decorate the home, see here, I believe we already know how to raise it!
