How to raise a rich tree? Guide to hydroponic culture and maintenance of rich trees

Rich tree, also known as melon chestnut, Malaba chestnut, American peanut tree and so on. Among them, the rich tree is commonly called by everyone, and its implication is the same as the name, rich and prosperous, which is very suitable for the green plant varieties presented by the opening of the shop. However, most of the wealth trees we see are cultivated in soil, so can they be hydroponically cultivated? Below, the editor of Huinong Network will introduce to you the hydroponic culture method and maintenance guide of the wealth tree.

1. Brief introduction of Wealth Tree

Genus Castanea of the kapok family. The leaves of the rich tree are green all the year round. Use 3-5 stems of young plants to do braided shape, chic and beautiful. The height of the plant planted in the ground is 8-20m, and the height of the pot plant is about 2m, and there are even miniature pot plants with a height of only 30 ~ 50cm. Straight, inflated at the base, branches many whorled. Palmately compound leaves with total stalk; leaflets 5-7, rectangular round-lanceolate, near 20cm, without petiole, entire, nearly leathery, emerald green and bright. The flowers are large, 20cm long, yellowish white to yellowish yellow, and the petals are laciniate. It blossoms from April to May (South China) or June to July (East China), and Xingqin from July to August.

2. The method of hydroponic culture of rich trees.

(1) method 1

In spring, strong soil is selected to cultivate the seedlings of rich trees, dig out the whole plant and remove the soil. The root system of the rich tree is small, so be careful not to damage the root system. Disinfect 10min with 0.1% potassium permanganate solution and plant it in a transparent container after root washing. Due to the large shape of the rich tree, the container should be thick and heavy, and the root must be firmly embedded at the mouth of the bottle or fixed with a small amount of matrix. Then, inject clear water to the root of the rich tree. After that, the fresh water was changed every 2-5 days until the new roots grew after 2-3 weeks.

(2) method 2

At the end of spring and the beginning of summer, the branches with a length of 10 to 15 cm were cut off, and the lower leaves were removed and inserted directly into the container. Change the water every 2-5 days, and often spray on the branches. Rooting is slow and it takes 6-9 weeks to grow new roots. Because the base of the hydroponic material formed by the water insertion method will not expand, and the ornamental property is poor, so the application is less.

3. Guidelines for the maintenance of wealth trees

(1) Light

The rich tree is suitable for high temperature and high humidity climate. The cold tolerance is poor, the seedlings are afraid of frost, and the adult rich trees can tolerate light frost and long-term low temperature of 5-6 ℃. All-day sunshine is the best, because it can shorten the internodes and make the plant compact and plump. It is best to keep sunny during the growing season of the rich tree. The rich tree will grow more slowly when the light intensity is low. Special attention should be paid to not suddenly transferring the plant from the shade to the strong light, which will burn and scorch the leaves and affect the normal growth and ornamental value of the rich tree.

(2) watering

The rich tree is more resistant to water and moisture, but poor to drought. It is not suitable to water too much to prevent root rot caused by stagnant water, resulting in plant death. Spray water on the leaves every day to make sure the leaves are green.

(3) pruning

Rich trees should pay attention to pruning their branches in time in spring so as to promote the sprouting of new branches at the base of the trunk and make the new branches easy to tie up and shape.

The above is the rich tree hydroponic culture method and maintenance guide arranged by Huinong net Xiaobian. Have you learned it? The method of rich tree culture is simple, and it has the exuberant vitality of dead wood in spring, but more maintenance must be added in the process of culture to increase its ornamental.

How to cultivate a rich tree in water? The method of hydroponic culture of rich trees

Many flower friends reflect that they don't know how to grow rich trees in water, so don't worry. Then the editor will introduce you the methods of hydroponic culture of wealth trees in detail to help you better plant wealth trees.

Generally, the root neck of the rich tree will generally have native roots. Find a sharp pair of scissors to cut them all, and then soak the base of the rhizome with 1500 times carbendazim or methyl thiophanate solution for 10-15 minutes to eliminate bacteria. The base of the stem can also be soaked in 200mg/L 's NAA solution for 10-30 minutes, which can effectively sterilize the rich tree.

3. After soaking the potion, take out the rich tree, and then put it into a hydroponic planting basket, preferably fixed with some pebbles or pebbles with good ornamental properties, and then start hydroponics.

[TIP] it must be noted that there is not too much water in the hydroponic culture of the rich tree, and it is best to reach the root base of the rich tree. It will take root in about 10 days, and then the rich tree can be well planted by daily maintenance according to the hydroponic method.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of hydroponic rich trees how to maintain hydroponic rich trees

The rich tree can be hydroponically cultivated and has great ornamental value, so it is easy to breed and can purify the indoor air. If you are used to seeing rich trees in the soil, what will happen when you encounter water? How to maintain the rich tree raised by water? Today, the editor of wed114 Marriage Network brings you the methods and points for attention of hydroponic rich trees. Let's take a look at the details.

The culture method of rich tree by hydroponic culture

Pay attention to pruning the root during the initial insertion

In fact, it is not difficult to cultivate wealth trees by water, so prepare the equipment (special equipment for hydroponics). Then it's time to prune the rich tree.

Take the rich tree out of the soil and remove the leaves at the base so as not to affect the growth of the plant. When pruning, according to the size of your flowerpot, remove all the leaves under the mouth of the bottle.

In addition, cut off part of the root with a knife, so that the root can be better absorbed and keep the cut smooth. Put the plant in a cool place to dry, wait for the incision to dry, and insert it into a hydroponic container.

Water quantity control and selection of water consumption

The water can reach 1/3 of the vase, not more than 2/3.

Before taking root, change the water every 3 days. There is no need to change the water after giving birth. Just add water to the vase. Spray water on the leaves when the weather is dry and muggy. You can choose Rain Water, well water, or pure water. If tap water is used, it should be kept for 1 day before use.

Keep the room temperature

The suitable growth temperature of rich tree is between 16 and 26 ℃, and hydroponic culture is no exception. In winter, do not put the plant on the balcony, windowsill colder place, always observe the growth of the plant, do not let the water freeze. When it is too cold, necessary measures can be taken to keep warm.

Ensure adequate light

Hydroponic rich trees are usually kept indoors for maintenance and do not require high sunlight, but they need to receive 2-3 hours of light every day. If the plant lacks light, the leaves will turn yellow and grow poorly. So try to put the plant in a bright and ventilated environment and fully receive light during the period.

Fertilize once a month

For hydroponic plants, fertilization is often ignored, but proper fertilization can make plants grow better. Hydroponic rich trees can be fertilized once a month, you can go to the flower market to buy professional chemical fertilizer, or add a few drops of dissolved vitamin C1 to add water.

Matters needing attention in hydroponic culture of rich trees

Hydroponic rich trees should be placed out of reach of electric fans and air conditioners.

Check the growth status of the plant frequently. If there are rotten roots, the rotten roots should be removed in time. If the water has a bad smell, you should change the water in time and check if there are rotten roots.

When the leaves turn yellow, you should check whether there is too much fertilizer or not enough light.

This is the end of the hydroponic culture method of the rich tree and the matters needing attention. In fact, it will not be difficult. I hope the flower friends will get some harvest after watching it, one more breeding method and one more choice.
