The culture method of plum blossom: how to cultivate plum blossom? How to fertilize plum blossoms and when to fertilize

Plum blossom culture method, plum blossom should be purchased at the beginning of the winter blossom, when the market volume is large, the price is cheap, the flower is in a semi-dormant state, the plant recovers quickly, you can see the pile shape, flower shape, smell the fragrance.

To choose a good pile, the rootstock should be apricot plum, the trunk is horizontal, thick and old, the grafting point should be low, and the branches should be sparse. Make a strong cut according to the shape of the pile before putting it on the basin. Cut off all the branches that hinder the shape. Keep a proper amount of flower branches and cut them after flowering. Observe that the pile and soil is the original pile and soil, loosen the compacted place, remove the excess soil and plant it in a suitable basin, such as a small clay figurine, soak the mud mass in the water to remove the mud mass, plant the pot in a place away from the wind and the sun.

Plum pile with medium-deep purple sand pottery basin, basin shape to manger, square basin, round basin or thousand-cylinder basin is appropriate, pot color varies according to color, there should be a sharp contrast to increase the ornamental effect.

Plum blossom likes dry, avoid dampness, good sunshine, like fertile, cold-resistant, generally can withstand-10 ℃ low temperature, is a kind of flowers in the most extensive cultivation area. The management of potted plum blossoms is particularly meticulous.

The method of plum blossom culture: turning the basin and changing the soil

The newly planted plum should be carried out from September to October, because by this time the flower bud has differentiated and the bud has been initially formed. at this time, the plant in the pot can grow for a long period of time, and at the same time, it can promote flowering by cutting off some roots, but the plum blossom should be turned over to change the soil in March after flowering. The root system of plum blossom is developed and the regeneration ability is strong, so it is necessary to change the pot every year. When changing the basin, cut off the rotten root, fill it with base fertilizer (bean cake, poultry dung, horseshoe or sheep's hoof shell), and replace it with culture soil, so that it can blossom every year. At the same time, in the vegetative growth period, it is best to use ordinary tile pot cultivation, placed outdoors, or buried in the ground. The blooming period is dug up again, installed in porcelain or Yixing flowerpots (set pots) and placed indoors, which can not only increase the ornamental value, but also does not affect the growth.

Plum blossom turns the basin and changes the soil year after year, which is especially beneficial to the cultivation of ancient plum piles. Each change of pot can properly improve the position of the plant, so that the root of the base is exposed to the soil surface again and again. If there is Yaxing, it can also be embedded into the rocks to achieve the purpose of hanging roots and showing claws or intertwined roots, which can not only improve the modeling skills, but also increase the grace and beauty of plum piles.

Appropriate fertilization of plum blossom culture method

Plum blossom is a kind of fertilizer-loving plant, which needs a lot of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other nutrient elements in the process of growth. Potted plum blossom, can be combined with watering, about 10 days to apply mature bean cake water. During flower bud differentiation in autumn, the application of nitrogen fertilizer should be stopped, a small amount of phosphate fertilizer should be added, or 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate should be applied to ensure the nutrients needed for normal flower bud differentiation. In early October, secondary liquid fertilizer can also be applied to promote bright flowering in early spring and prolong flowering period.

Reasonable watering of plum blossom culture method

Plum blossom is a kind of drought-tolerant plant, too much water will cause rotten roots and fallen leaves, and immortality will also affect the formation of buds. Potted plum blossom due to limited potted soil, in the spring and summer dry wind or high temperature season, should also pay attention to watering. Specifically, when there is a drought, the basin soil is watered every afternoon, and some of the basin soil is too much, and it is also necessary to water it in the morning. We must keep the basin soil moist and master the method of dry watering. Experienced growers believe that the wilting of green leaves is that the basin soil is too dry, and the yellowing and shedding of the leaves is that the basin soil is too wet. If the leaves fall off prematurely in the vegetative growth season, it will also affect the flower bud differentiation of plum branches. After autumn, flower buds gradually form, when the old leaves fall off, on the contrary, it is good for flowering, growers do not have to worry too much.

Pruning and shaping of plum blossom culture methods

The flower buds of plum blossoms are formed on the new branches of the same year. If you want to make the plum branches blossom, you can take the method of short pruning to promote the growth of new branches. Cultivation practice learned that new branches are too long but fewer buds, new branches are short and strong, and buds are the most. Pruning plum blossoms is based on the habit of plum blossoms. The overgrown branches (slender branches), weak branches, disease and insect branches in the new lateral branches after flowering in spring should be cut off from the base. In autumn, there are flower buds sprouting in the leaf axils of these new lateral branches. all branches with flower buds are generally kept 10 cm long and short before winter. After flowering, it is necessary to cut short branches, cooperate with watering and fertilization, to promote the growth of new and strong branches, so as to blossom more.

Adult plum trees, with twisted branches and oblique bodies, tend to show a vigorous and simple posture. The ancients mentioned on Mei: "Mei takes qu as beauty, but straight does not have appearance." Take beauty as beauty, but there is no scene in the rule. If you regard sparsity as beauty, if you keep it secret, you will be motionless. " The summary of plum pile shape by predecessors is very reasonable. Therefore, intensity pruning is necessary for mature plum trees, especially for some varieties that have flowered and have strong branching ability. Its purpose is to strengthen the tree potential, so that the new branches sprouting are stout and the flowering rate is high. However, in the trunk vertical lie, curved branches should be carefully pruned, to create conditions for the plum pile shape, trunk, branches, tree potential to be balanced. Generally speaking, the branches are strong and cut more, but the branches are weak and cut less. When pruning side branches, it should depend on the direction of branch development and the size of the space occupied. Master the principle of keeping the backbone branches long and the side accompanying branches short. In order to maintain the whole plant type, some overdense branches can be cut off from the base.

Culture method of potted plum blossom

Soil for cultivation of potted plum blossom

It is appropriate to choose sandy loam with good drainage and ventilation. This kind of cultivated soil can be made of peat, fine sand and garden soil at the proportion of 1:1. If possible, it is better to put a small amount of rotten leaf soil in it. The purpose of adding rotten leaf soil is to improve the fertilizer storage capacity of the cultured soil and make the cultivated soil slightly acidic:

Watering the culture method of potted plum blossom

In winter and spring, the plum blossom does not need much water. In addition to making the basin soil slightly tidal during the flowering period, the other stages keep the potted soil slightly dry. Summer and autumn are the stages when plum blossoms need the most water, which should be seen in watering, but from June to July, flower buds begin to differentiate, and it is necessary to "control water" several times, that is, to reduce watering so that plum blossom leaves can be watered again, so that plum blossoms can blossom better.

Fertilization of culture method of potted plum blossom

Plum blossom likes fertilizer, but the supply of fertilizer should be timely and appropriate, and dilute liquid fertilizer can be applied once at an interval of about 10 days from late spring to early summer. From late winter to early spring, when plum blossom buds begin to grow to transparent color, thin liquid fertilizer should be applied every 5 days to make plum blossom blossom colorful and fragrant.

The Light of the Culture method of potted Plum Blossom

The location is sunny, the plum blossom grows healthily and has more flowers, on the contrary, the plant grows slowly and the flower bud differentiation is less. It is necessary to ensure that potted plum blossoms are exposed to sunlight for 4-6 hours a day. During the flowering period of plum blossoms, especially after the flower buds begin to expand, direct sunlight for several hours a day is conducive to flowering. When the plum blossom blossoms, put it in a bright place where there is no direct sunlight, otherwise the flowers will soon wither.

Pruning of culture methods of potted plum blossoms

Annual pruning is essential if plum blossoms are to have a beautiful tree shape and strong growth. The plum blossom should pick the heart of the branches in the vigorous growing season, so that the height of its long sword is 20 to 30 meters. At the same time, it is also necessary to cut off the sprouts from the rootstock and cut off the sick and weak branches and inner bore branches in time, so that the plum blossoms can grow more beautiful and strong.

[control of common diseases and insect pests] plum blossoms are vulnerable to aphids and red spiders during the growing period, which can be controlled by spraying general pesticides, but do not use dimethoate to avoid drug damage to fallen leaves.

Culture method of potted plum blossom

Potted plum blossom culture method, plum blossom like the sun and good ventilation environment, good fertilizer, fear of waterlogging, more resistant to cold, but extremely weak tolerance to toxic gases. The pot cultivation technology of plum blossom is more complicated, the cultivation management should be fine, and more attention should be paid to watering and fertilization. Plum blossom watering must be timely, appropriate, master do not dry do not water, must not be too wet, with the basin soil moist is appropriate. If the leaves are too dry and too wet, the leaves will affect the bud and blossom. General watering can grasp the following points:

From April to June, the plum blossom just sprouted and needed little water, so it could be watered once every few days. After that, with the increase of air temperature and the growth of branches and leaves, the amount of water gradually increased. In order to prevent the growth of branches and leaves, it is appropriate to dry the basin soil at this stage. It is best to put the basin upside down on rainy days to avoid waterlogging, especially in the rainy season.

From July to September in ②, due to strong light, high temperature and large evaporation, in addition to watering once every afternoon, some dry pots should be watered in the morning. At this stage, dry watering should be achieved to prevent dry leaves.

From October to March of the following year, the temperature of ③ changes from cool to cold, and the water is watered from once a week to once every other day, to once a few days. This stage is based on the principle of keeping the basin soil moist. In the flowering period to slightly increase the amount of water, but also can not cut off the water, the full flowering stage to control moisture, in order to prolong the flowering period.

Reasonable fertilization can promote plum blossom blossom, make plum blossom grow vigorously and prolong its life span. Fertilization of potted plum can be carried out several times a year. At the beginning of January, when plum blossoms are budding, quick-acting fertilizer should be applied once to promote the blooming of plum blossoms. The fertilizer should not be too thick so as not to cause fertilizer damage, and attention should be paid to watering once the next morning.

Topdressing was applied once in April for leaf branching in spring. From mid-late June to early July, 10 days after the new branches stopped growing, rapidly available phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, such as calcium superphosphate and potassium chloride, could be applied combined with irrigation to promote flower bud formation. This fertilizer can not be applied too early, too early often promote the growth of new buds, which is disadvantageous to the formation of flower buds. In early August, plum blossoms take root for the second time, and in order to promote flower bud hypertrophy, topdressing mainly containing phosphorus and potassium can be applied once. After the first ten days of September, in order to achieve strong flower buds, it can be applied again for 1 or 2 times. Stop fertilizing in summer and do not apply fertilizer during flowering. The above is an introduction to the breeding methods of potted plum blossoms.
