The culture method of reticulate grass

Light and temperature

Reticulate grass prefers semi-shady growth environment to direct sunlight. In summer, it is necessary to shade the reticulate grass to cover most of the sun. In winter, you can move the reticulate grass to a place where you can come into contact with the sun for maintenance.

The suitable temperature for the growth of reticulate grass is between 18 ℃ and 24 ℃, and it is not hardy. The best temperature for overwintering in winter is above 10 ℃, not lower than 8 ℃.

Soil

When planting reticulate grass, you can choose soil rich in humus, which requires strong air permeability and water retention capacity, and peat soil can also be used.

Watering and fertilizing

Watering reticulate grass needs to master certain skills, because the root system of reticulated grass is relatively shallow, so whether there is more water or less water, the influence is not good. Basically to keep the basin soil slightly moist, not too dry or too wet, too dry will make the leaves lack of water, too wet will make the roots of grass rot.

Reticulate grass has a high need for fertilizer, but fertilization should follow the rule of applying fertilizer thinly. In the period of vigorous growth of reticulate grass, you can apply fertilizer to it every half a month. In order to make the leaves green, you can spray some manganese sulfate solution to the leaves.

Reproduction method

The propagation of Rhizoma reticulata is usually by means of ramet propagation, cutting propagation and tissue culture.

The culture method of reticulate grass

Reticulate grass is a small potted plant among foliage plants. In Europe and the United States windowsill, balcony and bedroom has been very common, indicating that reticulate grass has a special charm. The leaves of reticulate grass are fresh and beautiful, which is especially suitable for potted plants. Today, we will learn about the breeding methods of reticulate grass. Let's get to know it.

The culture method of reticulate grass: 1. Light. Should be placed in the windowsill with sufficient light, there can be no direct light, especially the strong light in summer. 2. Temperature. Reticulate grass is more sensitive to temperature, the night temperature is not less than 15 degrees, a short low temperature can cause defoliation or even death. 3. Water and fertilizer management, watering in spring, summer and autumn should grasp the principle that it would rather be wet than dry, but water should not be accumulated and the soil should not be completely dry. It can be slightly drier in winter. In addition, we should pay attention to improve the air humidity, often spray water to the leaves. For the requirement of fertilizer, thin fertilizer and water should be applied every two weeks, and the formed plants can reduce or not fertilize.

4. Change the basin. The basin soil is mixed with peat soil and coarse sand in the same amount.

5. Diseases and insect pests. The common disease is anthracnose and the pest is aphid, which can be controlled by spraying pesticides. 6. Reproduction. In the family, short twigs with three or four pairs of leaves can be used as cuttings for cutting propagation. Expand knowledge-the garden use of reticulate grass: 1, used as a small pot: with a caliber of 10 cm, about 13 cm high color pottery pot to plant several cuttings, around the soil decorated with colored stones or moss, placed on the table or desk, particularly elegant. 2. Used for hanging basin cultivation: it is planted with hanging basin. When the basin is full, it is placed indoors, which is full of spring. 3. Used for combined cultivation: reticulate grass is one of the main auxiliary materials for combined potted plants. it is planted in the basin with several shrubs of different colors or shapes, together with low plants such as reticulated grass, ivy, orchid and so on to form a vivid three-dimensional picture. The culture method of reticulate grass

Reticulate grass, also known as Feidao flower, is a perennial herbaceous foliage plant of the family Euphorbiaceae. Native to Peru, the plant of reticulate grass is low and creeping. Except for the leaves that are prone to cold damage from winter to early spring, the leaves of other seasons are not withered, quite fresh and elegant. This kind of plant is suitable for small pot or hanging pot cultivation.

The potted reticulate grass can be mixed with peat soil, rotten leaf soil and river sand. The planting basin should not be too large, the shallow basin is better, and the basin bottom should be covered with a good drainage layer. During the growth period, dilute liquid fertilizer was applied every 1-2 weeks.

When applying fertilizer, avoid fertilizer contact with leaves and cause fertilizer damage. Its growth is exuberant from spring to autumn, should keep the basin soil moist, and often spray water to the leaves, so that it would rather be wet than dry, do not wait for the basin soil to dry before watering, but do not cause stagnant water in the basin; reduce the amount of water in winter to avoid spraying water to the leaves, so as not to cause leaves to rot and fall off.

The leaves of reticulate grass are thin and delicate and cannot accept strong sunlight directly. When planting indoors, it is better to put them in a place with bright scattered light. When the light is too strong, the plant grows slowly and the dwarf leaves curl and lose their original color, which will reduce the ornamental value. In winter, it is necessary to keep the temperature not lower than 13 ℃, otherwise it is easy to die from freezing; during this period, you should pay special attention to the water temperature, do not use water with too low temperature, keep the basin soil moist, and cover it with plastic bags to facilitate overwintering. In addition, root rot sometimes occurs in reticulate grass under low temperature or humid conditions. If this happens, 1000 topiramate or carbendazim should be used in time.

Reticulate grass plants are short, creeping, petite leaves with white or red fine reticulation, forming a very beautiful pattern, for a new generation of small indoor shady foliage plants. It is very popular in the West, and its introduction and cultivation in China is also very popular. Indoor potted planting can be used to decorate the study, coffee table, windowsill and other places, can also be used for hanging decorative cultivation.
