There are different requirements for soil culture and water culture. How to raise rich bamboo?

Rich bamboo not only has a beautiful shape, but also has an auspicious name, so many families regard it as a household plant. So, how to raise precious bamboo? Rich bamboo likes shade, warm and humid environment, which can be cultivated in either water or soil, but the cultivation requirements of the two are different.

Fugui bamboo, also known as green leaf fairy, longevity bamboo, green leaf bamboo banana, is a perennial evergreen shrub. Its habits are as follows.

I. temperature

Fugui bamboo likes shade, dampness and high temperature, waterlogging resistance, strong fertility resistance, strong cold resistance, and semi-shady environment. The suitable growth temperature is 20 ℃ and 28 ℃, which can withstand the low temperature of 2 Mel and 3 Mel, but it should be frost-proof in winter. The hot and humid season in summer and autumn is very beneficial to the growth of rich bamboo, and it is the best time for its growth.

Second, lighting

Rich bamboo is not strict with light, so it is suitable to grow under bright scattered light. Excessive light and sun exposure will cause leaf yellowing, chlorosis, slow growth and so on. Therefore, when planting in the field, we should build a 1.7-meter-high shade net with a shading rate of 75%, so as to create an environment of half yin and yang and scattered light. Especially from April to September, it is necessary to avoid direct exposure to strong light, exposure or excessive drought, otherwise it is easy to make the leaves rough, scorched, weak, lack of luster and reduce the ornamental value.

Third, moisture

Always keep the soil moist in the growing season, and often spray or sprinkle water to the leaves, and clear the stagnant water in the field in case of heavy rain to prevent lodging. In winter, the soil should be dry and wet, but it should not be dry or too wet. It is necessary to reduce watering and stop fertilization.

Matters needing attention in hydroponics and soil cultivation

1. Hydroponics

Base defoliation cut bevel

Before entering the bottle, the blade at the base of the cuttings should be removed, and the base should be cut into an oblique edge with a sharp knife. The knife edge should be smooth to increase the absorption area of water and nutrients. Every 3-4 days, change the water, can put in a few pieces of charcoal antiseptic, do not move within 10 days and change direction, about 15 days can grow silver white fibrous root.

Change water to add water

It is not suitable to change water after rooting, and water can only be added in time after water evaporation. Often changing water is easy to cause yellow leaves and branches to wilt. The added water is best to use well water, tap water should be stored in utensils for a day, the water should be kept clean and fresh, do not use dirty water, hard water or mixed with oily water, otherwise it is easy to rot roots.

Timely fertilization

Water raise rich bamboo in order to prevent excessive growth, do not apply chemical fertilizer, it is best to inject a few drops of brandy into the bottle every 3 weeks or so, add a small amount of nutrient solution; you can also use 500g water to dissolve half a piece of aspirin or a piece of VC, add a few drops when adding water, that is, you can keep the leaves green.

Avoid blowing by the wind

Do not put the rich bamboo next to the TV set or where air conditioners and fans often blow, so as not to dry up the leaf tip and edge.

2. Soil cultivation

Soil quality

Fugui bamboo is suitable for growing in sandy soil or semi-muddy sand and alluvial clay with good drainage. Therefore, the culture soil can be made of peat soil plus 50% garden soil. The basin bottom is padded with 2 to 3 meters thick ceramsite or coarse gravel as the drainage layer, and then add the culture soil.

Reproduction

In spring, cut the truncated stem into 5-10 cm stem nodes without leaves, or cut the basal branches with stem tips, insert them in clean coarse river sand, water thoroughly, cover them with plastic bags, keep the matrix moist, place them in a bright part of the room, and root in about 25 days.

Maintenance

The basin soil should be kept moist and humic acid liquid fertilizer should be applied once a month. Summer in the outdoor maintenance to shade, too strong light will make the leaves yellow, put in the north balcony or shade is better. Spray water to the ground and leaves once or twice a day when the climate is dry. From November to March of the following year, it should be maintained indoors, where the sun can be seen in front of the south window, and can grow slowly if it is kept above 10 ℃. Change the pot and soil from March to April in spring, keep the pot soil slightly wet after planting, and normal water and fertilizer management can be carried out after the new buds are issued. After about two years of cultivation, the plant should be cut off and replanted, and the plant can be cut off from 5 to 6 nodes, and the cut part can be cut or raised in water.

Rich bamboo, are relatively coarse plants, therefore, do not need excessive care. As long as according to its growth law, do a good job in humidity, water quality or soil quality, moisture control, can ensure its evergreen.
