Culture method of Green Leaf Jasper

The main horticultural varieties of green leaf Jasper are: petal green (with red spots on the stem, dark green leaves, yellow spots on the edge, and then become nearly white); green gold: leaves with macula. Jasper indoor farming is often cultivated with white plastic pots and white porcelain pots, which are placed on the coffee table, decorative cabinets and desks, fresh and lovely, and are good small potted materials.

Reproduction of green leaf Jasper--

Green leaf Jasper is often propagated by cutting and dividing plants.

Cutting method: select the strong top branches of Jasper from April to May, keep 1-2 leaves in the upper part, about 5cm as cuttings, wait for the cut to dry, and insert them into the wet sand bed. Similarly, Jasper can also be inserted into leaves, cut the leaves with petioles with a knife, dry them slightly and insert them obliquely on the sand bed, which will take root within 10-15 days.

Split method: mainly used for the reproduction of Jasper varieties with colored leaves. The basin soil can be made of rotten leaf soil, peat soil and some perlite or sand added with base fertilizer.

The culture of green leaf Jasper--

During the growing period, fertilizers are applied once a month, and water precipitated for 1-2 days is selected for watering, and controlled watering in winter.

The change of temperature will directly affect the leaf color of Jasper. The optimum temperature of green leaves in winter is about 15 ℃, and that of colored leaves is 18-20 ℃.

Jasper is afraid of heat and can spray water in a cool place in summer to cool down, while overheated and wet environment will cause Jasper's stems and leaves to blacken and rot.

Put Jasper in plenty of light in winter and avoid direct sunlight in summer. Change the basin every 2-3 years.

Jasper has fewer diseases and insect pests, but if the soil is too wet, leaf spot and stem rot often occur, and occasional scale insects and slugs are harmful, which should be prevented in time.

The culture method of green leaf Jasper the function of green leaf Jasper

The main horticultural varieties of green leaf Jasper are: petal green (with red spots on the stem, dark green leaves, yellow spots on the edge, and then become nearly white); green gold: leaves with macula. The following editor will introduce the breeding method and function of Qingye Jasper. Let's take a look.

I. the culture method of green leaf Jasper

Green leaf Jasper is also known as Douban Green, Pepper Grass, Emerald Pepper Grass, small Jasper; it is a perennial evergreen herb of the genus Piperaceae. Plant height 20-25cm, stem round, branched, light green with purplish red markings. Leaves alternate, slightly fleshy, long oval, dark green, glossy, as long as 15cm, base cuneate, petiole short. Spikes, 2. 5-18cm long, florets green-white, pedicels shorter than spikes, smooth glabrous. Fruit with curved acute beak. It is the representative species of erect Douban green.

Flower language: neutrality and impartiality

Douban green leaves green and moist, beautiful plant shape, but also more shady, small and lovely, placed in front of the window, table, coffee table and other places, do not have elegant interest.

Douban green, also known as round leaf pepper grass, pepper grass, for the pepper family evergreen perennial succulent herbs, plant height generally not more than 30 cm, spike-shaped inflorescences, but ornamental is not high, mainly ornamental leaves. Pepper grass can be divided into two types: upright clump and creeping overhanging growth. the former can be appreciated directly on the plane as a potted plant, while the latter needs to be appreciated by hanging. The cultivated varieties are variegated leaf type, flower leaf type, bright leaf type and wrinkled leaf type.

Douban Green, native to Venezuela, likes a warm, humid and semi-shady environment and is not resistant to cold, strong light and drought.

1. Matrix: like to grow in loose and fertile sandy soil with good drainage and rich in humus, and have poor growth potential in clay. Generally, the substrate can be mixed with rotten leaf soil, river sand and a small amount of mature organic fertilizer, and peat soil and perlite can be mixed under certain conditions.

two。 Lighting: like semi-overcast or scattered light, except for sufficient light in winter, shading is needed in other seasons, especially in summer. If placed in a shady environment, it is easy to grow, the branches grow, and the ornamental is reduced, which is not advisable. Under the semi-overcast condition, the leaf color is brighter and the gloss is better, especially the variegated leaf variety, the demand for sunlight is a little higher.

3. Temperature: like the warm environment, the suitable temperature for growth is between 20-30 ℃, the overwintering temperature is better kept above 10 ℃, the growth stops below 10 ℃, and it is easy to freeze under 5 ℃.

4. Humidity: like the humid growth environment, grow luxuriantly in the humid environment, bright leaf color, strengthen foliar spraying or sprinkling water in the growth environment when the temperature is high or the air is dry, in order to maintain high air humidity, which is very beneficial to the growth of the plant. It can also adapt to a short dry environment, but not for a long time, generally should be kept at about 70%.

5. Watering: prefer water, not resistant to drought, watering frequently during the growing period, watering more water when the temperature is higher than 25 ℃ or when the air is dry, but also to prevent waterlogging, when the temperature is lower than 25 ℃, the basin soil surface should be watered thoroughly when the temperature is less than 10 ℃, it can be dried for several days without watering.

6. Fertilization: a small amount of fertilizer is needed when the temperature is higher than 18 ℃, and less or not when the temperature is lower than 18 ℃ or higher than 30 ℃. Fertilization should be carried out in a small amount and many times, and diluted fertilizer solution instead of clear water irrigation is the best. It is not tolerant to raw fertilizer and thick fertilizer, and it is easy to cause fertilizer damage. Foliar spraying fertilizer solution can also be used for fertilization, and the effect is good. Fertilizers are mainly nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer, followed by phosphate fertilizer.

7. Pruning and reproduction: the newly propagated seedlings will pick the heart to increase the number of branches when the seedling height is about 10 centimeters, so that the plant type is fuller and the appreciation value is higher. The pruning of large plants is generally determined according to the growth trend, short cut and long branches, which can be used as cutting material, easy to take root, can be planted in clean river sand or vermiculite, or directly in sandy soil. Propagation can also be carried out by leaf cuttings and ramets. In general, the ambient temperature needed for reproduction is between 20-25 ℃, and leaves need to be inserted in the river sand with petiole upright or slightly tilted, and the depth of sand entry is petiole 1-4-1-3, keeping the substrate moist and high air humidity, and rooting and adventitious buds can take place in 2-3 weeks. The small buds can be transplanted after they are slightly larger.

8. Hydroponic culture: the longer branches can be cut directly or the whole basin can rinse the substrate and then hydroponic culture. The ambient temperature of cutting branches is about 20-25 ℃, and the new roots can grow in about 2 weeks.

9. Diseases and insect pests: Douban green has fewer diseases and insect pests, and the general diseases are caused by improper nursing and environmental discomfort, which can be gradually recovered under adjustment. Pests are mainly harmed by red spiders, but can be prevented when maintaining high air humidity, and can be prevented by wiping leaves with wet cloth or spraying special insecticides when they occur.

Second, the function of green leaf Jasper

Green leaf Jasper can be used medicinally. According to the pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine, its internal use can dispel wind and dampness, relieve cough and expectoration. External use can treat injuries and fractures, so it is also an important part of Chinese herbal medicine.

Dispelling wind and dampness, relieving cough and expectoration, promoting blood circulation and relieving pain. For rheumatic pain, tuberculosis, bronchitis, asthma, pertussis, lung abscess, infantile dysmenorrhea, external treatment of injuries, fractures.

Green leaf Jasper breathes carbon dioxide at night to produce oxygen, which can be planted indoors, but it does not exist for the radiation protection function now mentioned on the Internet. If you want to protect against radiation, you should use a professional radiation protection suit.
