Culture methods of Bamboo and Cypress

Temperature

The suitable growth temperature of bamboo and cypress is between 18 ℃ and 26 ℃, and the cold resistance is poor, and the lowest low temperature is 7 ℃ below zero.

Light

Bamboo and cypress are more shady, avoid hot sun exposure, and pay attention to shading from May to September. You can build a sunshade net or put the flowerpot in a place where there is no direct sunlight for maintenance, so as not to burn the rhizome with strong direct light, causing the plant to die.

Watering

Bamboo and cypress like the moist growth environment, but in the usual maintenance, we must avoid stagnant water, we must pay attention to grasp the appropriate amount of water and watering times, and so on when the soil is dry, we can spray more water on the leaves to increase air humidity and make the leaves bright and green.

Soil

Bamboo and cypress have strict requirements on soil and prefer deep, fertile and loose acid sandy loam.

Fertilizer application

Potted bamboo and cypress generally do not need to be fertilized, but in order to ensure that their leaves are dark green, alum fertilizer can be applied 2-3 times in the peak growing season.

Pruning

Bamboo and cypress will enter dormant or semi-dormant state in winter, at this time, thin branches, disease and insect branches, over-dense branches and withered branches can be cut off, which can not only maintain the beautiful plant type, but also prevent the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.

The culture method of bamboo and cypress is an ancient gymnosperms, known as "living fossils". In some areas, bamboo and cypress are mostly used as green trees. Potted bamboo and cypress are very popular in recent years, and many flower friends do not know the culture method of bamboo and cypress, and bamboo and cypress encounter a lot of problems in the process of conservation. Bamboo and cypress like warm, humid environment, more shady, daily maintenance must not be in order to increase humidity overwatering lead to stagnant water, bamboo and cypress cold resistance is poor, the lowest can resist the low temperature of-7 ℃ (it is not recommended to maintain below zero), the suitable growth temperature is 18 ℃-26 ℃. In addition, it should be noted that bamboo and cypress avoid hot sun exposure. According to the ecological characteristics of bamboo and cypress, sunburn or death will occur in the root neck of bamboo and cypress on the sunny slope. In fact, for the conservation of potted bamboo and cypress, flower friends mainly pay attention to the three links of watering, ventilation and environment. If these three links can be done well, basically there will be no major problems in the maintenance process of bamboo and cypress. Watering: although bamboo and cypress like the wet environment, but avoid stagnant water, so flower friends must pay attention to watering, do not keep watering every day, you can touch the soil with your hands, dry and then water, usually you can spray more water to the leaves to increase humidity. Ventilation: this applies to all plants. Many of our potted plants are kept in the office or bedroom, and there are often times when there is no ventilation, which is not conducive to plant growth, especially in the office, when no one goes to work on Saturdays and Saturdays. Be sure to consider ventilation. Environment: bamboo and cypress in addition to home-raised potted plants, there is a small potted plant, there are flower friends on the desk, next to the monitor, look very beautiful, but it is not good for plants, there is a case to prove that the display is harmful to plants. Culture methods of Bamboo and Cypress

Upper pot: when small seedlings are installed in a pot or large plants that have been raised for several years are transferred to the basin, a coarse-grained matrix 2cm thick is first put into the bottom of the basin as a filter layer, which is sprinkled with a fully mature organic fertilizer as a base fertilizer, with a thickness of about 1cm and 2cm, and then covered with a thin layer of matrix, which is about 1cm thick, and then put into the plant to separate the fertilizer from the root system and avoid root burning.

Pruning: when the plant enters the dormant or semi-dormant period in winter, the branches such as thin, disease and insect, withered and overdense should be cut off. The branches can also be arranged in combination with cuttings.

Change the basin: as long as it is properly maintained, it will grow very fast. when it grows to a certain size, it should be considered to change a larger basin to allow it to continue to grow vigorously. The culture soil and composition ratio for changing pots can be selected as follows: vegetable garden soil: slag = 3RU 1; orchard soil: medium coarse river sand: sawdust = 4RU 1v 2; or one of paddy soil, pond mud, rotten leaf soil.

Take off the basin: put the flowers that want to change the basin on the ground, first pat the four sides of the basin with a slap, so that the root system is shaken and separated from the basin wall, put the flowerpot upside down on the left hand, gently clamp the plant with the index finger and middle finger of the left hand, hold the edge of the basin with the wrist and fingertip, hit the bottom of the basin with the right hand, and then use the mother finger to top the root soil down from the bottom hole to let the plant come out. After taking it off, gently pat the basin soil with both palms to let the excess soil fall off.
