Culture method of ice lantern jade dew

Ice lantern jade dew is a kind of succulent plant, its meat is glittering and translucent, similar to ice lantern, so it is called ice lantern jade dew, ice lantern jade dew is the best variety of jade dew, known as living carvings, the following Qiannong network editor will introduce the breeding method of ice lantern jade dew!

Culture method of ice lantern jade dew

1. Lighting: ice lantern jade dew is naturally fond of cool and ventilated environment, so it is generally not suitable to put ice lantern jade dew directly in the sun, but to put ice lantern jade dew in a semi-overcast environment with good temperature and humidity.

2. Watering: ice lantern jade dew is more resistant to drought and can adhere to the principle of not drying and watering thoroughly. When watering, we should pay attention to properly grasp the degree of watering, and at the same time, the flowerpot should be placed in an environment with good drainage performance to avoid stagnant water.

3, humidity: ice lantern jade dew needs to maintain a certain humidity, its leaves can look better, if the surrounding environment is relatively dry, you can use spray to spray water on the surface of ice lantern jade dew, so as to maintain its humidity, at the same time, if the effect of this is not good, you can cover the ice lantern jade dew with a plant cover, but open the cover every day to let the plants breathe.

4, fertilizer: ice lantern jade dew generally does not need fertilizer, generally just planted ice lantern jade dew is not suitable for fertilization. For ice lantern jade dew which has been planted for a few months or one or two years, a little fertilizer can be applied properly in the growing period of ice lantern jade dew-spring and autumn to ensure its growth.

5. Change the basin: because the bottom of the ice lantern jade dew will secrete an acid substance, which will corrode the soil, so the ice lantern jade dew basically has to change the basin every year. Generally, the basin change period is in spring or autumn, or it is found that ice lantern jade dew does not grow in the growing period, so it is necessary to change the basin in time.

Matters needing attention in ice lantern jade dew culture

1. The ice lantern jade dew plant is dormant or semi-dormant in high temperature in summer, and its growth is slow or completely stagnant. It can be maintained in a ventilated, cool and dry place to avoid "steaming" the plant in a hot and humid environment and avoid hot sun exposure. do not pour too much water, stop fertilization, and wait for autumn to cool before returning to normal management.

2. The lowest temperature in winter is about 8 ℃ at night and above 15 ℃ in daytime, sandalwood plants can continue to grow and should be watered normally; if watering is controlled to make the plants dormant, they can withstand a low temperature of 3 ℃ ~ 5 ℃, or even a short-term low temperature of 0 ℃. If they are kept in a low temperature environment below 5 ℃ for a long time, the plants will not die, but there will be signs of frostbite on the leaves. Therefore, the overwintering temperature of Yulu had better be maintained above 5 ℃.

Propagation method of ice lantern jade dew

The reproduction of Yulu can be combined with changing pots for ramets, or the young plants next to the mother plant can be dug up in the growing season, both with and without roots can survive, direct planting with roots, rootless seedlings should be hung for 1 to 2 days, and then planted after the wound is dry, the newly planted plants should not be watered too much, so as not to cause rot, and then carry out normal management after growing new roots. You can also choose strong and fleshy leaves in the growing season to keep the potted soil slightly moist, it is easy to take root at the base, and grow small buds, and so on the buds are slightly larger and then planted separately.

Sowing is also one of the breeding methods of Yulu, but through artificial pollination. The seeds can be sown with picking, and the sowing soil can be mixed with 3 parts of vermiculite, rotten leaf soil or peat soil. It is best to disinfect the soil at high temperature before sowing to eliminate the bacteria and eggs. Cover with a piece of glass after sowing and emerge in about 20 days. Remove the glass after emergence, pay attention to ventilation, do not make the soil too dry, when the seedlings are too crowded, pay attention to seedling transplanting. In the sowing seedlings, there may be some variant plants, among which the young plants with compact plant shape, fleshy leaves, high transparency of the "window" and prominent veins can be selected as seedlings for preservation. If seedlings with different leaf colors are found, they should also be selected, which may be a precious variational plant when they grow up.
