How to make Shui Pei Luo Shi bonsai? Guide for the maintenance of Shuipeluo stone bonsai

Luoshi, also known as Nadong, Shilongteng, million-zigzag flower, ten-thousand-word jasmine, is an evergreen woody vine, native to Shandong, Shanxi, Jiangxi, Hebei, Henan, Jiangsu and other places in China. It is often used in gardens or potted ornamental plants. Of course, Luoshi not only is used for ornamental purposes, but also has medicinal value. Its roots, stems, leaves and fruits are used for medicinal purposes. It has the efficacy of expelling wind and activating collaterals, promoting joints, stopping bleeding, relieving pain and detumescence, clearing heat and detoxification. It should be noted that Luoshi is a poisonous plant, and its toxicity is toxic to the whole plant. Of course, what we want to talk about today is the production method and maintenance guide of Shuipeluo stone bonsai, as follows.

I. hydroponic method

(1) method 1: cut off the sturdy branches with aerial roots, insert the branches directly into a transparent container, and then add 1/3 of the water that immerses the roots, and water bacon can grow after about 10 days.

(2) method 2: select the sturdy and shaped soil stone, dig out the whole stone plant, rinse it clean and plant it in a transparent container, then add 2/3 of the water that immerses the root system.

(3) method 2: dig the rooted vine around the neck of the root of Tupelo stone, wash the vine and plant it in a transparent container, then add 2/3 water that immerses the root system.

Which method you choose depends on your actual situation, but no matter which method you choose, you have to change the water every 2-5 days.

II. Maintenance guidelines

When Luoshi grows into hydrobacon, it should be cultured in a comprehensive nutrient solution, and the nutrient solution should be changed every 30-60 days, and during this time, the Luoshi pot should be placed in a place with bright scattered light. Avoid direct sunlight in summer and do a good job of shading. When the weather is dry, it is necessary to spray and replenish water to the foliar surface of the collaterals, and in the cold winter season, it should be moved to the indoor for sunny cultivation. Because of its cold resistance, it can survive the winter safely indoors, and appropriate pruning should be carried out for old and over-long branches, which is beneficial to promote the development of new branches and increase the number of flowers.

How is the flower leaf stone watered? Can mosaic collaterals be hydroponically cultivated?

Flower and leaf stone is deeply loved by flower lovers because of its colorful leaves, and it is often planted indoors for ornamental use. In the maintenance process of mosaic stone, in order to ensure its beautiful leaf color, watering is a very important link. So, how to water the mosaic stone? Can mosaic collaterals be hydroponically cultivated? Let's take a look.

First, how to water the mosaic stone?

Mosaic stone likes relatively humid soil, especially in the growing season to maintain the moisture of the soil, but not too humid, it will lead to a large area of leaf shedding. Under normal circumstances, water can be watered every 3 days in summer, every 2 days in spring and autumn, and almost every half a month in winter. except in winter, the soil should be kept moist, and the soil can be slightly moist in winter.

Can mosaic collaterals be hydroponically cultivated?

Mosaic collaterals can be hydroponically cultivated. Because the flower and leaf collaterals have air roots, they are very easy to grow with water. The hydroponic culture of Huaye Luoshi can cut the rooted branches and insert them into the water, or use the pot root washing method for hydroponic culture, which can quickly adapt to the hydroponic environment.

[editor's conclusion] Huaye Luoshi likes a relatively humid environment, so it is necessary to keep the soil moist as far as possible in the process of watering. The above introduces the watering method and hydroponic culture of flower and leaf stone, hoping to be helpful to you!

Maintenance and management of hydroponic flowers in winter the temperature conditions needed for flowers to survive the winter safely under hydroponic conditions are consistent with those needed for soil cultivation (artificial medium cultivation). Family hydroponic flowers, the foliage and flowering plants used, are mostly originated in the Latin American rain forest, or tropical high temperature, high humidity, shady valleys, belong to cold-resistant flowers, and the suitable temperature for growth is generally 18 ℃-25 ℃. Hydroponic cultivation only changes the cultivation mode, but does not change its growth habits. When the temperature drops below 10 ℃, some flowers grow stagnant and lose their luster; below 5 ℃, most foliage plants will suffer varying degrees of damage-scorched leaf edges, yellowing old leaves, wilting and shedding, and even death, such as green pineapple, Pueraria lobata, bungee grass, Daifen, and so on. It is easier for beginners to understand the changes in their ambient temperature and choose flower varieties that are suitable for hydroponics. When there is no facility and ability to adjust the ambient temperature, you might as well choose flowers with a wide range of temperature adaptation, such as green apple forest taro, tortoise back bamboo, synthetic fruit taro, calla lily, ivy, Thor, tiger eye evergreen, Luoshi, flower vine Changchun, gentleman orchid and other flowers cultivated in water. In addition, the waste foam board can be cut according to the size of the hydroponic utensils, spliced and bonded to wrap the utensils. When the room temperature is lower than 10 ℃, it is very effective to cover the hydroponic flowers with old newspapers and plastic film, or to raise the water temperature to 18 ℃ or 25 ℃. If you have a tank of tropical fish, you can set up a shelf at the top of the tank to put hydroponic flowers on it to survive the winter safely. When the room temperature is lower than 10 ℃ in winter, most hydroponic flowers are dormant or semi-dormant to adapt to the harsh climatic conditions. At this time, the application of flower hydroponic nutrient solution should be stopped, only tap water should be used, and the water should be changed on time (when changing water, some warm water should be added properly to keep the water temperature around 18-25 ℃), the roots of plants should be cleaned and utensils should be kept clean. Generally change the new water every 10-15 days, if the water quality is pure and clean, the plant grows strong and has no rotten roots, and changing once every 15-20 days or even 30 days will not affect its growth. For those hydroponic flowers that are still growing slowly, such as orchids, calla lilies, fairy pens, green apple trees, etc., nutrient solution can be applied once every 10-15 days to promote their healthy growth.
