In the vigorous stage of its growth, we should often water, but also frequently spray water to the leaves and around, keep the soil and plants moist, so that the leaves will have luster, and the plants will grow better. In winter, you should wait for the basin soil to be completely dry before watering. It should not be too wet.

Temperature requirement

The weeping leaf banyan likes the environment with high temperature, and the most suitable temperature for growth is 15 ℃-30 ℃, which is more hardy, but it is better not lower than 5 ℃ in winter to prevent frost injury.

How to culture weeping-leaf banyan culture methods and matters needing attention

In indoor plants, we can often see weeping banyan, drooping banyan leaf thin leathery, its air root, bark, leaf buds, fruit can be used for heat-clearing and detoxification, dispelling wind, cooling blood and so on. In addition, the weeping leaf banyan can also purify the air and act as an ornament. Then how to raise the hanging-leaf banyan?

I. Culture methods of weeping-leaf banyan

1. Select / change pots: the size of flowerpots is generally determined according to the size of drooping banyan seedlings. In order to obtain good plant type, 3 seedlings should be planted in one pot. In order to supplement nutrients, the pendulous leaf banyan needs to change the pot every 1-3 years, small potted plants can be changed every April, and large-scale plants can be changed every 2-3 years. When changing the basin in spring, add rotten compost (such as dried pig manure) to the bottom of the basin, and then add new basin soil. When changing the basin, it is best to trim it to promote branching.

2. Soil: the weeping banyan should grow in the acid mixed soil with humus, which can be the mixture of compost and peat soil in the same proportion, with a little base fertilizer, or it can be composed of garden soil and rotten leaf soil with a little coarse sand.

3. Temperature: weeping banyan likes high temperature environment, and the best growth temperature is 22-30 ℃. It is not cold-resistant. In order to prevent frost injury, the temperature should not be less than 5 ℃ in overwintering stage.

4. Illumination: the weeping leaf banyan likes the light, and it is generally placed in a sunny place, but it is not acceptable to be exposed to strong light, especially the varieties of flowers and leaves. The mesophyll of the weeping banyan that receives enough sunlight is thick and shiny; the plants without light grow sluggishly, the internodes elongate, and the leaves are soft.

5. Moisture: weeping banyan likes the environment with high humidity and avoids drying. In the middle of summer, it is necessary to frequently water and moisturize, and spray water frequently to the leaf surface and air, so that the weeping leaf banyan can grow better and increase the luster of the leaves. In winter, in order to prevent rotting roots, water them again when they are dry.

6. Fertilization: during the growing period, liquid fertilizer, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, should be applied every two weeks, and a small amount of potassium fertilizer can be applied properly.

7. Diseases and insect pests: weeping banyan is susceptible to leaf spot and black mildew. You can spray 50% carbendazim wettable powder 600-1000 times or 70% mancozeb 400-600 times. In terms of insect pests, drooping banyan is vulnerable to shell insects and red spiders, which can be prevented by spraying 40% triclosan emulsion 1000-1500 times or 40% omethoate emulsion 1000 times.

II. Matters needing attention in the culture of weeping-leaf banyan

The weeping-leaf banyan tree prefers warm and humid growth environment and avoids planting in low temperature and dry environment; the requirement of light is not strict; the most suitable temperature for growth and development is 23 ℃-32 ℃. The tree has relatively strong cold tolerance and can withstand 0 ℃ low temperature for a short time. Weeping-leaf banyan trees like light, like high temperature and humid climate, and have strong adaptability. At the same time, the soil quality is not strict, and it is best to be planted in a fertile and well-drained environment.

When entering the vigorous growth period, weeping banyan trees should be often watered to keep the soil moist and spray water around their leaves, which can effectively promote the growth and development of plants and improve the glossiness of leaves. Watering in winter should avoid getting too wet, resulting in rotting roots.

The breeding methods and matters needing attention of weeping-leaf banyan have been introduced to you. I hope it will be helpful to you to better cultivate your own home-grown banyan.

Culture method of weeping leaf banyan

The weeping leaf banyan is evergreen all the year round and its branches are soft. It is a very popular indoor and outdoor foliage plant at present. The weeping leaf banyan has a strong ability to adapt to the environment and has a high ability of environmental purification, so it is very suitable for indoor planting. Next, I would like to introduce to you the culture method of weeping leaf banyan. What matters should be paid attention to in the process of breeding?

The weeping leaf banyan is not strict on soil quality, but it must be fertile and well drained. The weeping banyan is suitable to grow in the acid mixed soil with humus, which can be the mixture of compost and peat soil in the same proportion, with a little base fertilizer, or it can be composed of garden soil with 1 peat 2 and rotten leaf soil with a little coarse sand.

Weeping banyan likes the environment with high humidity and avoids drying. In the middle of summer, it is necessary to frequently water and moisturize, and spray water frequently to the leaf surface and air, so that the weeping leaf banyan can grow better and increase the luster of the leaves. In winter, in order to prevent rotting roots, water them again when they are dry.

Weeping-leaf banyan should generally be placed in a bright place, but strong light should be avoided, especially in flower and leaf varieties. If the sunshine is insufficient, the internodes elongate, the leaves are soft, and the growth is weak; in the sunlight, the mesophyll becomes thicker and shiny.

The basin soil of weeping-leaf banyan can use mixed soil rich in humus, such as compost mixed with the same amount of peat soil, and apply some base fertilizer as base fertilizer. In the growing season, liquid fertilizer can be applied every two weeks, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, properly combined with some potash fertilizer.
