What are the advantages of raising peacock bamboo taro in the family (fengshui effect)

Peacock bamboo taro is a shady plant, can be placed in the bathroom at home, not only play a role in purifying the air, but also rich.

What if the peacock bamboo taro is not tall?

1. Reason: the temperature is uncomfortable, too high or too low, or insufficient light.

As far as the habits of peacock taro are concerned, they like the warm and humid cool environment, do not like low temperature conditions and strong wind conditions, and then pay special attention to not being exposed to the sun, so the plants should be moved to the shade during the high temperature in summer. In addition, we must reject the high-temperature environment, keep the ambient temperature below 30 degrees, often spray water ventilation, cooling and heat preservation, in order to avoid withered and yellow leaves and so on. Of course, in winter, it is necessary to increase the light and temperature appropriately.

2. The reason: the nutrition supply of basin soil is insufficient.

Because peacock taro likes fertile and loose soil with good drainage conditions, preferably slightly acidic rotten leaf soil, or a mixture of mature base fertilizer, rotten leaf soil, peat and river sand.

Reason: insufficient water supply. It has been mentioned before that peacock bamboo taro likes to be moist, especially in its growing season, so it is necessary to increase the amount of water and spray water at the right time to keep the environment moist. In winter, it is necessary to control the amount of water, as long as the basin soil is not dry, wait until the early spring and then gradually increase the amount of water. 3. Reason: improper fertilization leads to plant malnutrition.

During the growing period of peacock taro, liquid fertilizer should be applied once a month to ensure the nutrients needed for plant growth and promote its healthy growth. As for the variety of fertilizer, mainly phosphate fertilizer, potash fertilizer, should not use too much nitrogen fertilizer. Improper fertilization will lead to the problem of plant dwarfism. In addition to applying fertilizer, liquid fertilizer can also be sprayed on the leaves and then drenched with water. Special attention should be paid to stop fertilizing after entering winter.

Propagation methods of Peacock Bamboo Taro

1. Ramet

Ramet propagation is carried out every year when the daily temperature is about 20 ℃ in early summer. After the old plant with dense growth is dug up, it is appropriate to leave 2-3 lingering buds in each section along the underground rhizome. Immediately after cutting, it is placed in a basin, placed in a cool place for a week, and then gradually moved to a place with sufficient light. The moisture should be controlled at the initial stage of ramet planting, and the new roots should be fully watered.

2. Cuttage

Cuttage propagation usually selects young branches with 2 to 3 leaves at the base as cuttings in summer, or uses some kinds of stolon cuttings. It can be mixed with peat soil and river sand, or vermiculite and perlite can be used as substrates to keep it moist. It can take root in about 5 weeks and be planted in pots.

Control methods of Leaf spot of Peacock Bamboo Taro

1. Harm

The greatest ornamental value of peacock bamboo taro lies in its leaves, which are engraved to say that leaf spots are fatal to them. When leaf spot disease occurs, the leaves will gradually dry up, shrink, and even gradually fall off and die.

2. Symptoms

There are already white and light green markings on peacock taro leaves. In the early stage of leaf spot disease, nothing can be seen without careful observation, but with the spread of the disease, there will be a lot of yellowish brown near-round disease spots on the leaves. These disease spots will gradually link together, with halos on the periphery. In the later stage, the disease spot expands, and the whole leaf will turn yellow and wither.

3. The regularity of the disease

The occurrence of leaf spot is mainly related to the environment, such as high temperature and humidity, poor air circulation, excessive planting density of plants, more weeds and rotten leaves in potted plants, heavy fertilization, more nitrogen fertilizer and so on.

4. Prevention and control methods

Strengthen cultivation management and control temperature. The growing season should be fully watered to keep the basin soil moist, but not too wet, otherwise the roots will rot easily, or even the whole plant will die. Although it likes to grow in low luminosity or shade, it is not suitable to stay indoors for a long time. It is necessary to accept sunlight in autumn and winter to maintain the unique brilliance of leaves. Keep it dry in winter, if it is too wet, it is easy to rot the root or the basal leaves turn yellow. During the growing period, dilute liquid fertilizer was applied once every half month to enhance its disease resistance.

Once diseased leaves are found, remove them immediately so as not to infect other leaves. In the early stage of the disease, 25% prochloraz EC (such as Guoguang Bixian) was sprayed 500-600 times, or 50% manganese zinc wettable powder (such as Guoguang Yingna) 400-600 times. Use it 2-3 times at intervals of 7-10 days.

Peacock bamboo taro likes to grow in a semi-cool environment, so it will grow well indoors. We breed it at home to beautify the home environment, but we still need to know more about its growth habits and master some skills in the process of maintenance.

Causes of yellowing of Peacock Bamboo Taro leaves in Family Culture and its Solutions

Too much water, too little sunlight and too little fertilizer will cause leaves to turn yellow, but the situation of yellowing is different, so we should carefully observe and analyze the reasons and correct them. Water yellow: the young leaves are dark yellow and dull, the old leaves have no obvious change, the branches are small and yellow-green, and the new shoots are not long, indicating that they are overwatered. Remove the flowers from the pot and place them in a ventilated, cool, self-drying soil mass and then put them back into the basin.

Dry yellow: lack of water yellow is different from water-rich yellow, water-deficient yellow is leaf tip or edge withered, dry, old leaves withered and yellow shedding from bottom to top, but the growth of new leaves is relatively normal. Pay attention to watering enough and thoroughly.

Burning yellow: strong sunlight shines directly on some shade-loving flowers (such as orchids, peacocks, taros, hairpins, etc.), which can easily cause withered leaf tips and edges, and macula in the sunny part of the leaves. Just move to the shade.

Lack of light and yellow: put in a shady environment for a long time, the leaves can not get enough sunlight, can not form chlorophyll, the whole leaves turn yellow and then fall off, supplementary light can avoid the disease.

Fat yellow: flowers yellowing caused by excessive fertilization or excessive concentration, showing dry brown at the tip of new leaves, generally thick and dull, concave and convex, and old leaves are scorched yellow and shedding. Fertilizer should be stopped immediately and some fertilizers should be washed with a large amount of washing.

Lack of fat yellow: the color of the young leaves becomes lighter, yellow or light green, while the old leaves are more normal or gradually change from green to yellow. Check the basin soil, if there is a dry knot phenomenon should change the soil, usually apply thin fertilizer frequently and timely pour some alum ("peacock bamboo taro" is foliage plants should be nitrogen-based fertilizer).
