The function and culture method of drug-addicted grass

If you have friends who want to purify the indoor air, you can put a pot of poisonous weeds indoors. Drug addicts can absorb indoor harmful gases and purify the air. So, how to raise drug-addicted weeds? Next, let's take a look at it.

A brief introduction to drug addicts

Drug addicts, the scientific name lemon vanilla or wrinkled leaf mint, aliases are peppermint balsam, bee balsam, honeybee flower and so on. Drug addict grass is a perennial plant of Labiatae, with a height of 50 meters, soapy stems and leaves, whorled umbels, lip-shaped white flowers, heat and cold resistance, drought and waterlogging tolerance. The Beginning of Winter pruned once before, can survive the winter safely. It can withstand the low temperature below 0 °C in winter and the high temperature above 30 °C in summer, and the most suitable growth temperature is between 10 and 20C.

The role of drug addicts

For people, it is quite good for all kinds of flowers and plants to have some special functions besides being used as some decorations. Drug-addicted grass is such a strange and versatile plant. In our daily life, people often breed drug-addicted weeds in the form of potted plants in their rooms, because drug-addicted weeds can better absorb harmful substances such as formaldehyde. According to the detection and analysis, the disinfection rate of drug-addicted grass to formaldehyde in 3 hours is 92.4%. The 72-hour elimination rate is 98.5%, so the drug-addicted grass has a good absorption effect on formaldehyde, which is the most direct reason why people like to cultivate drug-addicted grass.

Culture methods of drug-addicted weeds

1. Reproduction: it is relatively easy to reproduce drug-addicted grass, and it can be sown and propagated, cut in and propagated separately.

2. Lighting: drug addicts like to have bright light. If the room is well lit, the drug addicts can be placed in a sunlit place and the room can be ventilated normally. If the lighting of the room is not very good, such as the bathroom, kitchen and other places, the poisonous weeds are moved to a sunny place after 72 hours in the room, or put back for 72 hours, and can also be placed outside to absorb light and breathe when the weather is not cold.

3. Temperature: the requirement of temperature for drug-sucking grass culture is not high, and it can withstand the low temperature of less than 0 ℃ in winter, but the high temperature above 30 ℃ in summer is limited, and the most suitable growth temperature is between 10 and 20 ℃.

4. Soil: drug addicts can grow in general soil, and there are no strict requirements for the soil. Of course, it is better to have fluffy and breathable rotten leaves. The cultivation soil of drug-addicted grass should be mainly loose and fertile garden soil and plant ash soil with good permeability, and a small amount of vermiculite or perlite can also be added to the soil to increase soil air density and prevent rotting roots.

5. Watering: the drug-addicted grass can be irrigated with clean water or rice water every 3-5 days. If the branches and leaves of the drug-addicted grass wilt due to lack of water, it should be replenished immediately, so that the drug-addicted grass will recover soon.

6. Fertilization: you can add a small amount of nutrient solution to the water every month, or ordinary nitrogen fertilizer, do not add concentrated fertilizer.

7. Pruning: drug weeds grow very fast, so it is recommended to trim them once a week and cut them off at the top of the higher branches where there are new leaves. For example, don't worry about the black-edged leaves or the old leaves at the roots. Just take them off.

8. Diseases and insect pests: drug-addicted grasses can emit germicidal volatile oil and absorb harmful gases, so there is basically no pest problem, as long as the moisture needed for the growth of drug-addicted weeds and the temperature are taken care of.

This is the end of the introduction of the breeding methods of drug-addicted weeds. I believe that after reading it, we have a certain understanding of the breeding methods of drug-addicted weeds. If there are friends who want to cultivate drug-addicted weeds, you can refer to the relevant knowledge that I introduce to you.
