Matters needing attention in the culture of golden unicorn flowers from seven aspects

Although the golden kirin flower is relatively easy to feed, but like all succulent plants, once it is not properly cared for, it is very likely that it will not be able to see the appearance of flowering, and any kind of plant as long as it is not watered or fertilized, it will wither after a long period of "hunger" Oh, so pay more attention when you should pay attention.

1. Soil: The basin soil for planting golden unicorn is best to use a mixture of pond mud/river mud and cinder, the proportion of the former is 65%, and the latter is 35%. This kind of mixed soil, hydrophobic, breathable effect is very good, very conducive to the growth of golden kirin.

2. Watering: Golden Kirin likes neutral water and soil. Acidic or alkaline water and soil will threaten their growth. In addition, too much watering is harmful to them. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that there is no accumulated water in the flowerpot, otherwise the golden Kirin will slowly rot. Generally speaking, it is best to irrigate the golden unicorn planted indoors once every 6 to 7 days, while those planted outdoors in sunny places can be sprayed and watered once every 2 days, but each watering cannot be thoroughly watered. In rainy season, water should be properly controlled. When it rains, attention should be paid to drainage. If it is acid rain, it should be washed with river water or tap water. What still needs attention is, avoid by all means in northern winter not to undertake watering in the morning, because the temperature that place waters may differ with golden kirin plant surface temperature too big, cause golden kirin surface to rupture easily, bring about plant to die even, the best watering time of winter should be afternoon 2:00 to 3:00, namely when a day temperature is highest.

3. Light: Kirin palm likes light. After leaving the house at the beginning of May, it shall be placed under the shade for 7 to 10 days, and then placed in a sunny place for maintenance. The abnormal stems tend to grow excessively and become columnar stems due to insufficient light. Especially in the growing season to ensure adequate lighting, must not be long-term indoor viewing. Although winter has been dormant, but the plant also carries out photosynthesis to maintain basic life activities, so it should also be placed in a sunny place, otherwise it will make the leaves yellow and fall off. Golden unicorn flower originated from the desert of South America, like high temperature, light, exposure, abundant sunlight is more conducive to promote its growth. Because of this, balconies and rooftops are the best places to grow them in the south. In the north, because the golden kirin is cold and drought resistant, it is easy to grow them indoors without problems.

4. Fertilization: Golden Kirin Flower is suitable for neutral fertilizers, such as potassium nitrate. Or some organic fertilizer, such as peanut cake or bean cake. Fertilization can be applied once a month, and some more can be applied during the growth period in May and June. During the growing season, about 15% fully decomposed alum fertilizer is applied once a month. When fertilizing, avoid fertilizer, thick fertilizer, otherwise easy to cause rotten roots, leaves. Fertilization can be stopped during winter dormancy and gradually restored to normal fertilizer supply level when growth begins in the following spring.

5. Temperature: Kirin Palm is not cold resistant. The most suitable temperature for growth is 22-28℃, 30℃ is unfavorable for its growth, and above 35℃ it enters dormancy. Generally, the first cold snap before the frost falls should be entered in the future. At first, attention should be paid to indoor ventilation, so that it gradually adapts to the indoor microclimate. Even if it is warm in winter, do not move outside to bask in the sun. If the room temperature in winter can be kept above 15℃, the leaves will not fall; if the leaves have fallen, as long as the temperature is above 7℃, they can safely overwinter. In May of the following year, the leaves can be re-opened.

6, pests and diseases: Kirin palm pests and diseases are less, but long-term in the greenhouse or place of poor ventilation, easy to be damaged by scale insects. Winter and spring can be every 10 days with clean water spray once leaf dust. In addition, Kirin Palm is very sensitive to gas, and it is easy to cause defoliation after fumigation.

7. Propagation: Golden Kirin flowers are generally propagated by insertion method, and can be inserted during April to October. The best time to insert is to choose a sunny morning. Cut a strong abnormal stem, cool for 3~4 days, wait for the wound to dry, insert clean river sand about 2~3 cm, do not water first, spray water after 2 days, keep the pot soil moist, take root about a month, and then transplant on the pot.

The above is how to cultivate golden kirin flowers and what should be paid attention to all aspects of the introduction. Of course, the golden kirin flower can also be divided into plants and seeded in addition to its insertion and reproduction, but in terms of survival rate, the survival rate of the insertion is higher.
