The Culture method of White Palm A complete Collection of Home Plant Culture and matters needing attention

The breeding method of white palm: during the growth period, apply organic fertilizer every 7-10 days, and provide enough water to keep the basin soil moist, but avoid stagnant water in the basin, it is appropriate to loosen the basin surface, so that the basin soil is often loose and breathable, as long as the temperature is suitable, it can grow well throughout the year. During the period of high temperature and dry heat in summer, we should frequently spray water to the basin surface, leaf surface and the ground around the basin, in order to increase the air humidity in a small range and reduce the temperature to facilitate its growth. If the environment is dry, the new leaves will become small and yellow, and when they are serious, they will wither and fall off. At the end of autumn and winter, watering should be reduced, fertilization should be stopped, and basin soil should be kept slightly moist.

Like semi-overcast and humid environment, summer should pay attention to shade, can cover 60% of the sun, 70% of the sun, if the light is too strong, the leaves are easy to burn, scorched, the leaf color is dim, lose luster, affect its viewing. If the long-term light is too dark, it will also make the plant grow weak, underdeveloped, and not easy to blossom.

Like high temperature, afraid of cold. It is necessary to enter the house for the winter, and the room temperature should be kept above 10 ℃ in order to pass the winter safely. If the room temperature can be kept at 20 ℃-25 ℃, it will grow well. If it is under 10 ℃ for a long time or the basin soil is too wet, it is easy to cause root rot, the aboveground leaves are withered and yellow, and in serious cases, the whole plant will die.

The cultivation methods of white palm can be divided into two kinds: pot culture and hydroponic culture.

First, white palm culture in the case of potted plants, first of all to ensure that the soil is loose, drainage, air permeability is good. Before getting high-quality seedlings, we should prepare the cultivation substrate, which can choose ordinary northeast peat and add 15% perlite to 20% perlite, keeping the soil PH value at about 5.5.

Second, in white palm culture, the control of temperature is also very important. White palm is a heat-loving species and should be cultivated in a high-temperature greenhouse. The most suitable temperature during the day and night is 20 ℃ ~ 21 ℃, and the highest is not more than 24 ℃. If the daytime temperature is high, as compensation, the night temperature can be reduced appropriately. Once 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.

Third, humidity adjustment. White palm likes the humid environment, and must not wait until the soil matrix is completely dry before watering. The best way to water is spraying at the top, and the best relative humidity is 75%-85%.

Fourth, fertilization management. In the flowering season and reproductive growth stage of white palm, the ratio of N ∶ K sprayed with nutrient solution was 1.5 ∶ 1, which promoted flowering.

If the method of water culture is used to cultivate white palm, it is easier to grow. In the early stage of planting, it is necessary to choose a vase with a larger bottom, and it is suitable to submerge the root system. Change the water about 7 days in summer and 15 days in winter, and add a few drops of special nutrient solution for flowers and plants. During hydroponics, regularly wash away the mucus from the roots of white palms and build rotten roots and old roots.

Matters needing attention in the culture method of white palm

1. Improper lighting. White palm needs better light in winter and early spring, do not shade, and gradually shade when the light is getting stronger, if you enjoy it in the shade, do not directly expose it to the sun, otherwise it will cause discomfort due to rapid changes in the environment, such as wilting, yellow leaves, and even death.

two。 Humidity: White palm needs higher growth humidity, and if the air is too dry, it can cause leaf wilting, which can be solved by strengthening water spraying or spraying water on the environmental ground, or covered with transparent plastic bags. but when the light is good, it should be slightly ventilated or open a mouthful of ventilation on the top of the plastic bag, otherwise the temperature in the bag will rise sharply.

3. Improper fertilization. Fertilizer should be applied thinly, do not apply thick fertilizer or raw fertilizer, and water once after applying solid fertilizer, it is best to use thin fertilizer instead of clear water, so that it generally does not produce fertilizer damage, and the plant grows luxuriantly.

4. The temperature is uncomfortable. Generally speaking, this situation does not happen at this time, and it is easy to occur when the temperature is below 5 ℃ or higher than 35 ℃.

5. Pests. If harmful mites are harmful, the leaves show bad symptoms such as wilting, gloss desalination, yellow blight and so on, which can be controlled by spraying special mites, such as triclofenac, Nisolan, pyridaben and so on.
