White palm is a perennial evergreen herb foliage plant. How should white palms be planted at home?

First of all, we need to understand the living environment of white palm, and then make a judgment on its suitable home style.

Required maintenance: keep the basin soil moist and fertilize regularly, and the leaves need to be sprayed frequently.

Can be removed: ammonia, acetone, benzene, trichloroethylene, formaldehyde

Cultivation and management

White palm is more shade-resistant, as long as it has about 60% scattered light to meet its growth needs, so it can be cultivated in indoor places with bright scattered light all the year round. Summer can cover 60% to 70% of the sun, avoid bright light, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow, and sunburn will occur in serious cases. Greenhouse cultivation in northern winter can not shade or less shade. If the light is too dark for a long time, it is not easy to blossom. White palm is a kind of species that likes high temperature and should be cultivated in high temperature greenhouse. The lowest temperature in winter should be 14-16 ℃ at night and about 25 ℃ in daytime. Long-term low temperature is easy to cause leaf shedding or scorched yellow.

Key points of maintenance

The selection of white palm matrix requires basin soil with loose, drainage and good air permeability. The culture medium should be prepared before getting high-quality seedlings. The matrix can choose ordinary northeast peat or imported German peat, but both should add 15% to 20% perlite and stir evenly, choose perlite with large particles, and be careful not to crush perlite as far as possible. The EC value of the prepared matrix is about 0.7mS/cm and the pH value is about 5.5.

White palm under temperature control is a species that likes high temperature and should be cultivated in high temperature greenhouse. The most suitable daytime and night temperature for white palm is 20 ℃ ~ 21 ℃, and the highest temperature is not more than 24 ℃. If the daytime temperature is high, as compensation, the night temperature can be reduced appropriately. For example, if the temperature is 27 ℃ for 6 hours during the day, the temperature should be kept at 9 ℃ for 6 hours at night. Other cases in turn and so on. In particular, it should be noted that if the white palm is in a state of low temperature for a long time, it is easy to cause the leaves to fall off or be scorched yellow.
