What if the rubber tree loses its leaves? Daily cultivation and management skills of rubber trees and solutions to leaf loss

Rubber tree is a famous potted foliage plant. I think many people must have encountered the loss of leaves in the planting process, so the editor wants to know how you deal with it. The following are the daily cultivation and management skills of rubber trees and the solutions to the loss of leaves. Please take a look.

Sometimes we encounter rubber trees at home losing their leaves, but we don't know how to save them. Rubber trees lose their leaves (there is an abnormal large number of fallen leaves, mainly due to soil and water, which is related to the usual conservation methods).

Cutting skills of Rubber Tree

After losing all the leaves of the rubber tree, we should not be nervous, let alone save them blindly. We must find out the reason for the loss of the leaves, and then save them purposefully.

Most of the leaves of rubber trees are caused by soil and water problems, and we can use the method of elimination, for example, how long they have been kept, if they have been kept for a long time, and the leaves have been lost recently, then we can rule out the problem of whether the soil has been overwatered recently and whether the weather is wet or not. as a result, the water in the basin cannot be volatilized. Through a similar method, first rule out whether there are problems in the three links of water, soil and fertilizer.

In addition, there is the problem of temperature. One of the most common situations in which rubber trees lose their leaves is the low temperature, especially in winter, when the temperature is lower than 10 ℃, rubber trees will begin to lose their leaves. At this time, you need to move the rubber tree indoors or other places with higher temperatures, but pay attention to sunlight.

Control of common diseases and insect pests in rubber trees

Rubber tree is a sunny plant, need to be placed in a sunny place, to maintain good light, the best winter can be sunny, if placed in a dark place, no sunlight can easily lead to the loss of rubber tree leaves.

Rubber trees must be often watered during their growth, especially in the hot summer season, because of their large evaporation, they need to be watered not only from their roots, but also from their leaves. However, the pot soil for planting rubber trees is too wet and easy to rot roots, and it must be watered when the pot soil is dry. Watering too frequently or not for a long time will cause the rubber tree to lose its leaves.

It is a headache for the rubber tree to lose its leaves, because its main ornamental value is the leaves, so you must pay attention to the breeding skills.

Is the rubber tree poisonous? what if the rubber tree loses its leaves?

Rubber trees are shade-resistant and are very suitable for breeding indoors and beautifying the home environment. So is the rubber tree poisonous? What if the rubber tree loses its leaves? Today we are going to answer these two questions.

The rubber tree is so good that many consumers are very tempted to buy one and raise it at home. But it is rumored that rubber trees are poisonous and dare not buy them easily. So, are rubber trees poisonous and do harm to our health?

It has to be said that the rubber tree is poisonous and its leaves contain toxic substances. However, for ornamental plants, this type of toxicity has nothing to do with the viewer. As long as you do not eat its leaves, it will not automatically release gas containing poison gas, so no matter where the rubber tree is placed indoors, it is safe for the human body.

The solution to the loss of leaves from rubber trees:

1. The temperature is suitable

Rubber trees like high-temperature, high-humidity environmental conditions, like sunny places, the suitable growth temperature is 20-25 ℃, one of the most common cases of rubber trees losing leaves is the low temperature, especially in winter, when the temperature is lower than 10 ℃, the rubber trees will begin to lose their leaves. At this time, you need to move the rubber trees indoors or other places with higher temperatures, but pay attention to the sunlight.

2. Plenty of sunshine

Rubber tree is a sunny plant, need to be placed in a sunny place, to maintain good light, the best winter can be sunny, if placed in a dark place, no sunlight can easily lead to the loss of rubber tree leaves.

3. Watering the right amount

Rubber trees must be often watered during their growth, especially in the hot summer season, because of their large evaporation, they need to be watered not only from their roots, but also from their leaves. However, the pot soil for planting rubber trees is too wet and easy to rot roots, and it must be watered when the pot soil is dry. Watering too frequently or not for a long time will cause the rubber tree to lose its leaves.

4. Insect pests need to be dealt with

Rubber trees sometimes have pest problems, leaves with red spiders, branches and leaves with shell insects will have fallen leaves, so the occurrence of leaf loss should be checked to see if it is a pest problem, and deal with it in time.

Let's take a look at the cultivation of rubber trees. Rubber trees like high temperature, humid, sunny environment, shade-resistant but not cold-resistant.

There are five ways to cultivate rubber trees:

The main results are as follows: 1. The rubber tree has the advantages of fast growth and good adaptability. it only needs simple watering and fertilization at ordinary times, and no special management is needed.

2. Cultivation techniques: it does not need too much technology. When potted, one part of rotten leaf soil, one part of garden soil and one part of river sand should be used, and a small amount of base fertilizer should be added to form culture soil.

3, temperature and sunlight, always keep the soil in a dry or slightly wet state. Summer due to high temperature, easy to lack of water, can be more watering.

4, regular "haircut", in order to make the plant grow evenly, more beautiful, maintain a good plant type, and then busy in time, you should take some time to trim it.

5. To prevent diseases, the common disease is carbon maggot disease, which mainly occurs in the summer high temperature season, the leaves are damaged, round or oval gray spots appear on both sides of the leaf veins, the solution: combined with pruning, remove diseased branches, diseased leaves and withered shoots, reduce pathogens, pay attention to ventilation and light, spray 1% Bordeaux solution.

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

Rubber trees, also known as Indian rubber trees, Indian rubber banyan and so on, are often used for pot cultivation in recent years because of their high ornamental value. Below, the editor of Huinong Network will explain the hydroponic culture methods and maintenance guidelines of rubber trees with you, and learn together.

1. Growth characteristics

Rubber tree leaves thick, oval, tip, as wide as palm, glossy, evergreen, is a world-famous foliage tree species. The tree of origin can grow to more than 30 meters, the trunk is stout, the root is rich, the branchlets are smooth, and the whole body contains milk. The buds are red, with bracts, the young leaves are dark red, and the old leaves are dark green.

2. Hydroponic culture method

The main results are as follows: (1) hydroponic rubber trees should choose small soil-cultured plants with better plant shape, and convert them into hydroponic culture by root washing. After washing, the plants are planted in a container and water is added to the 1 stroke, 3-1 beat of the root system. Glass containers with planting cups are suitable for large rubber trees.

(2) the old roots of small soil culture plants with better plant shape were selected, washed and cultured in water. Or choose the branches that grow sturdily from May to September, remove the basal leaves and dry the incisions, and then directly water-plug and breed them. Because the crown is heavy, ceramsite needs to be added to the container to fix the plant, which is conducive to rooting.

3. Maintenance guidelines

(1) temperature and light

The suitable temperature for rubber tree growth is 22 ~ 32 ℃, and the safe overwintering temperature is above 8 ℃. Rubber trees like to have enough scattered light, strong growth with sufficient light, broad and bright leaves, and weak branches with poor light. Be protected from direct sunlight in summer.

(2) changing water

The water of the hydroponic rubber tree is changed once in the first 2-3 days. After the water grows and takes root, the water can be changed every 10-15 days, and the nutrient solution is changed every two weeks.

The above is the guide on the hydroponic culture and maintenance of rubber trees compiled by Huinong net. Have you learned all about it? If you have any questions about breeding, you can comment and leave a message below.
