Second, how often is the banyan leaf fertilized?

1. Seedling stage

How often the banyan is fertilized depends on its growth. First of all, in the first month of the seedling stage, the plant does not need much fertilizer, in order to its better growth, can be combined with watering a small amount of fertilizer. As for the choice of fertilizer, flower friends can use a lot of flowers, pay attention to the concentration of fertilizer must be light.

2. After the seedling stage

In the first three months after the seedling stage, the plant has become visible and needs to be fertilized gradually. As for how often the banyan is fertilized, it can be fertilized every half a month, and the concentration of fertilizer can be slightly thicker than that in the first month. At this time, in addition to spending a lot of fertilizer, we can also use potassium nitrate and calcium nitrate to use at the same time.

3. Growth period

When it comes to the growing period of Ficus chinensis, the plant grows faster and requires a large amount of fertilizer. at this time, how often do banyan trees apply fertilizer? we can keep it every one to two weeks. The choice of fertilizer is the same as above. After applying fertilizer, the leaves of Banyan will be thicker, greener and brighter.

How to fertilize the banyan leaves

The main results are as follows: 1. The growth rate of Ficus chinensis is faster than that of other similar plants. in the first month of seedling stage, there is little demand for fertilizer. A small amount of fertilizer can be used, combined with watering, once to twice, and fertilizer can be used with a lot of flowers. pay attention to the concentration of fertilizer must be light.

2. From the second month to the fifth month, there is already a tree shape, and it is getting bigger and bigger. At this time, it is necessary to gradually increase the amount of fertilizer, fertilizing once every half a month, and the concentration of fertilizer can be slightly thicker than that of the first month. Fertilizer can be used with potassium nitrate + Huaduo + calcium nitrate at the same time. Calcium and potassium in fertilizer is very helpful to the Lignification of stems.

3. The largest amount of fertilizer is needed in the growing season, which is fertilized almost every one to two weeks, which can make the leaves thicker, greener and brighter. Fertilizer can also be used with potassium nitrate + Huaduo + calcium nitrate at the same time.

4. After the new leaves are fully unfolded, the time is about the middle of August, then fertilization should be carried out every 10 days, and nitrogen fertilizer can be used as the main fertilizer.

The Propagation method of potted Banyan Ficus how to raise it

Qin leaf banyan, also known as piano leaf rubber tree, is an evergreen tree plant of Moraceae and Ficus genus. It gets its name because the leaf apex is swollen in the shape of a violin. The plant type is tall, straight and unrestrained, the leaf is strange, and it has high ornamental value. It is often used as an ideal foliage plant in the hall, and it can also be used to decorate the hall or office. Let's take a look at how to grow potted fir leaves.

Growth habits of Ficus quinquefolia

Banyan is native to Sierra Leone to Morocco in West Africa, lowland rainforest, widely cultivated in tropical, subtropical, indoor and greenhouse. It is mainly produced in Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, Fujian, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Anhui, Zhejiang and other places in China. It likes warm, humid and sunny environment, the suitable temperature for growth is 25 ℃ to 35 ℃, dormancy is about 15 ℃, and more than 5 ℃ can survive the winter safely. The requirement for moisture is that it is better to be wet than dry.

The Propagation method of Banyan Ficus

1. Cutting: 1 / 2-year-old branches of Ficus quinquefolia were cut at 20 / 30 cm from the soil surface of the basin, and cut into 3 / 3 / 4 stem segments as cuttings, leaving a leaf in each cuttage, and the leaves were cut off 2 / 2 / 3 / 3 / 4 to reduce water evaporation. First soak the cuttings in water or touch the wounds with plant ash to prevent the sap from flowing out, insert the cuttings into the cutter made of river sand or perlite, and pay attention to keeping the temperature of the sowing bed and the high air humidity around it. It can take root in about one month at the temperature of 25-30 ℃.

2. High pressure: the high pressure propagation of Ficus chinensis can be carried out from April to August. Select the top branch of the upper half of the mother plant, leave 3 or 4 leaves on the upper part, peel or cut in the lower part of it, then wrap it with moss and bind it with plastic film. It can take root in about 40 days, and then it can be planted or pots when it grows to about 30 cm.

How to cultivate potted banyan leaves?

1. Potted soil: when potted, the basin with larger volume should be selected, and the pot should be changed every 2-3 years in spring. The bottom of the basin should be covered with tiles with convex surface, and then put on an old basin, and then a new substrate composed of pastoral soil, peat soil and a small amount of sandy soil should be added. The soil should be slightly acidic.

2. Fertilization: the leaves of Chin leaf banyan are broad and need a large amount of fertilizer, so liquid fertilizer or granular compound fertilizer should be applied in 1-2 weeks of growth and season to promote plant growth and thick green leaves, but no fertilizer is generally applied at the end of autumn and winter. From the opening of new leaves to the middle of August, fertilizer was applied every 10 days, mainly nitrogen fertilizer. When the growth is large, you can apply more fertilizer, stop growing or do not apply fertilizer when dormant.

3. Watering: the watering amount of Qin leaf banyan should depend on the temperature of the surrounding environment, the water demand in spring and summer is relatively large, and the amount of water should be reduced in the dormant period to keep the basin soil moist. Summer can properly shower light rain to facilitate growth, regular spraying of warm water, growth will be better, watering is also slightly acidic for better. Excessive temperature fluctuations or exposure to direct sunlight in the short term are not conducive to growth. If the plant is watered too much under low temperature for a long time, it can cause plant death.

4. Illumination: banyan has strong adaptability to light and can grow well under bright scattered light. Direct sunlight should be avoided in summer, and shade should be increased in winter if it is placed outside. Suitable for growing in semi-overcast environment, avoid direct sunlight in summer, so as not to burn the leaves and lose their luster. But the light is too weak and the growth of the plant is weak, so it must be given brighter light in order to grow healthily. The growing season generally grows well under 50% shade.

5. Temperature: compared with other banyan plants, Ficus chinensis has relatively weak cold tolerance, the suitable temperature for growth is 25 ℃ to 35 ℃, dormancy is about 15 ℃, and it can survive the winter safely above 5 ℃. In order to improve its cold resistance, in addition to controlling the amount of water in late autumn and winter, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be increased about one month before the coming of winter.

6. disease prevention: after the disease occurs, the banyan plant should be quickly moved to a place with sufficient sunlight and ventilation, do not spray water on the leaf surface, and cut off the seriously diseased leaves. Mildly diseased leaves can cut off the disease spot together with part of the healthy tissue, and then spray Duoduo solution to protect it, or spray 80% Dysen zinc wettable powder 500 times, 25% metalaxyl wettable powder 500 times, etc., pay attention to the rotational use of chemicals.
