Culture methods and matters needing attention of Pinus elliottii

[key points of loose planting with money]

1. Temperature: like a warm environment. It is more hardy and can endure a low temperature of 20 ℃, but it is best for small potted plants to move indoors when overwintering.

2. Light: like plenty of sunlight, but the seedlings are not resistant to strong light, so they should be shaded, otherwise they will burn the seedlings. When it is hot, sunny and poorly ventilated in summer, leaf tips are often scorched. It is appropriate to cover the sun around noon and do a good job of ventilation, otherwise it will affect growth and viewing, and adequate sunshine should be given at other times.

3. Watering: not resistant to drought, water management should be diligent. If the basin soil is dry, it should be watered in time and always keep it moist. Especially when planting in a shallow basin, it is necessary to prevent the basin soil from drought, otherwise it is easy to produce scorched leaves. But avoid wet water, basin soil is too wet to plant growth, the occurrence of fallen leaves, or even rotten root death. The plum rainy season should be checked in time after the rain and the stagnant water in the basin should be emptied. After the fallen leaves are dormant in winter, watering should be controlled.

4, environmental humidity: like the humid environment, during the growth period should be more to the branches and leaves and the surrounding environment to spray water to improve the air relative humidity.

5. Fertilization: intolerant to thin hemorrhoids. During the growth period, nitrogen fertilizer should be applied once a month to promote the robust growth of branches and leaves. Alkaline fertilizer should not be applied, and a small amount of ferrous sulfate should be added when fertilizing, which is beneficial to the growth of the plant. Fertilizer should be stopped during rainy season, high temperature in summer and dormancy in winter.

6. Pruning: strong sprouting. Unwanted shoots should be erased in time in spring. When the new branches and leaves are extended and the long branches are long, the modeled plants should leave 1-2 nodes to cut short to keep the branches flat. Due to the rapid growth, when shaping with wire, we should pay attention to remove the wound wire in time when the wire is embedded in the bark, so as not to affect the growth of trees.

7. Turn the basin: turn the basin once every 2-3 years, which should be carried out after falling leaves in autumn to before sprouting in spring. The slightly acidic sandy soil with loose fertility and good drainage can also grow in neutral soil, but avoid alkaline soil. Pinus elliottii is a mycorrhizal tree species, mycorrhiza must exist in the soil in order to ensure the normal growth of the plant. The seedbed of sowing and cutting propagation should be mixed with human mycorrhizal soil; when transplanting into the basin, you should also bring more lodging soil to ensure that mycorrhiza is retained. The matrix can be prepared with rotten leaf soil, garden soil, peat soil, perlite or coarse sand and other materials.

8. Pest control: there are diseases and insect pests such as shattering disease, stem rot and coir moth.
