In the process of planting, if the tip of the new leaf is yellowish brown and the old leaf is scorched yellow, it is because of the high concentration of fertilization that the plant turns yellow.

I. split-plant propagation

1. Ramet time

It is generally chosen when the temperature is about 20 ℃ in late spring and early summer, but it can be carried out throughout the year as long as the temperature and humidity are appropriate.

2. Ramet method

First of all, the mother plant of cat's eye taro was taken out of the basin and the root block with stem, leaf or leaf bud was cut with a sharp knife.

Immediately after the cutting is finished, it is watered in the basin and placed in a cool place, the temperature and humidity are controlled in the early stage, and normal maintenance can be carried out after the new roots grow out.

2. Cutting propagation

1. Cutting time

It can be carried out when the temperature is not lower than 20 ℃.

2. Cutting method

Generally choose the top tender shoot, the cuttage length is about 10-15 cm, according to the size of the leaf, retain its 1/3 or 1/2.

The cuttings can be treated with indoleacetic acid, indolebutyric acid or ABT rooting powder, and the cuttings can take root in about 30-50 days.

After the cuttings are treated, they are inserted into the seedbed with a row spacing of 5 × 10 cm and covered with a film bow shed.

How to raise cat's eye taro

1. Temperature

Cat's eye bamboo taro is native to tropical and subtropical regions and is resistant to high temperature. It is suitable to be in the growth environment of 20-30 ℃. The most suitable growth temperature in winter should be about 16-18 ℃.

2. Lighting

Shade-tolerant plants, sexual preference for semi-shade, should be placed in a bright indoor light. Avoid direct sunlight, exposure, etc., in order to avoid burning leaves. Shading and ventilation should be done well in summer.

3. Watering

In the growth period of cat's eye taro, it is necessary to fully water the soil and keep the soil moist. At the same time, we should also pay attention to avoid causing stagnant water in the soil, so as not to cause rotten roots and even cause plant death. As the leaves of the cat's eye taro are larger and the water evaporates quickly, it is necessary to maintain a high air humidity around it. The leaves can be sprayed frequently to keep the air around the leaves moist, which is beneficial to the growth and extension of the leaves. Once the leaves are found to curl and atrophy, it means that the plant is in a state of lack of water.

4. Fertilizer

Follow the principle of "giving frequently and sparingly". Stop fertilizing during the dormant period in winter and the high temperature in summer.

Seven misunderstandings about why potted plants frequently have yellow leaves and flowers

Flower Bonsai Network Guide: today, Flower Bonsai Network will introduce to you 7 misunderstandings about why potted plants frequently have yellow leaves and flowers. If you like flowers, let's have a look.

If you are the kind of friend who raises all kinds of potted plants with yellow leaves, you must reflect on yourself and exchange your experience of growing flowers with experienced ones to see where mistakes have been made and correcting them in time can still save a lot of plants.

1. Frequent watering of cheap hands

The potted soil of plants in some friends' homes is always wet. except for plants like copper grass and bowl lotus, which like to soak and grow in water, other green plants have such an environment that the leaves are yellow and the roots rot over time.

The initial symptom is that the young leaves at the top turn yellow and appear water-stained lines, which is the stagnant water of the root system, which needs to be controlled to dry the basin soil in time.

2. Often forget the water supply

Like the following pot of cat's eye taro, I like my warm and humid plant very much. If I often forget to water it, its leaves will become dry and yellow, the leaf edges will turn brown, and the leaves are not only dry, but also a little bit dry, so I often forget to water them.

In addition to watering, but also pay attention to each watering thoroughly, until there are water droplets dripping from the bottom of the basin, basin soil dry thoroughly is a very common skill.

3. The importance of rational fertilization.

If plants are not fertilized properly, plants will not grow well. If they often forget to apply fertilizer, their leaves will easily appear bright yellow. The newly grown leaves are very tender, and it is basically difficult for them to grow strong, and plants will not blossom.

At this time, we need to replenish the fertility, the appropriate fertility can make the branches and leaves of the plant grow thicker and stronger, only with enough soil, the plant can flourish and promote flowering.

4. What if there is too much fertilizer?

If you fertilize too much, water should be used to dilute the fertility, otherwise it will also burn the plant roots.

What are the symptoms of applying too much fertilizer? Such as the following dripping Guanyin, when the fertility is too large, the leaves appear uneven, the new leaves are particularly thick, and the old leaves suddenly turn yellow.

5. What about the alkaline soil?

Most flowering plants like slightly acidic soil, but if the soil is often watered, it is easy to be alkaline, and the plant growth state will change, as shown in the yellow leaves, and the leaves are easy to turn yellow.

What is most needed at this time is to improve the pH of the soil, you can go to the florist to buy some ferrous sulfate diluted with water, a more effective method.

7. Proper lighting

Plants need suitable light to grow better. Proper photosynthesis can not only increase the resistance of plants, but also promote flowering.

Such as the crab claw orchid below, it needs about 3 to 8 hours of scattered light every day, it is easier to give birth to buds, if there is no light, there are buds, it will soon fall out.

Before the conservation of plants, of course, to understand its needs for sunlight, do not understand can ask flower friends, after the maintenance will become very simple, if only know how to grow flowers, do not know how to communicate, plants will be very difficult to grow good-looking.
