The flower language of cactus

The flower language of cactus is: be strong and carry out love to the end.

The cactus has a soft heart on the outside. At the beginning of creation, the cactus was the weakest thing in the world. It was as delicate as water and could lose her life at the slightest touch. God couldn't bear to put a suit of armor on her heart, hard as iron, with hurtful steel thorns on it. From then on, no one could see the heart of the cactus any more, and all creatures close to her would be dripping with blood. A long time later, a brave man wanted to eradicate the evil creature. The sword fell, and the cactus turned into two halves, but it was a green liquid.

Therefore, the flower language of cactus is strong, carry out love to the end.

The legend of the cactus

At the beginning of God's creation, the cactus was the softest thing in the world. She is as delicate as water, crystal as jade, anyone who touches it slightly, it will lose its life. God couldn't bear it, so he added a layer of armor to him. Hard as iron, steel thorns like blades, from then on, no one can see the cactus heart like water. Any creature that wants to touch her will be scarred all over. If anyone wants to get close to it, it will use its own armor and thorns against them. So for thousands of years, no one dared to go near the cactus. Later, a warrior appeared. He said with disdain, "look at me to destroy this monster!" So the warrior pulled out his sword and split the cactus in half. he thought it would be difficult to destroy it, but he didn't expect it to be so vulnerable!

The warrior shouted in surprise, "Ah!" I didn't expect that the inside of the cactus is so soft! Doesn't everyone say it has a hard and ugly heart? Why only green teardrops fall one by one …... " Finally, the Warriors understand that the so-called thorn is only the shell used by the cactus to protect their fragile heart, in fact, it is so fragile and easy to get hurt! Therefore, the flower language of cactus is called-strong!

Finally, let's take a look at the way cactus is planted.

I. artificial pollination

There are few species of self-insemination in palms. Most of them are cross-pollination, which requires artificial pollination to bear seeds, and more species need the same kind of cross-pollination. Therefore, at least two plants of the same kind should be prepared. Pollination must be carried out when the stamen anther is dehiscent, the pollen matures and the pistil stigma fully secretes mucus. However, the maturation time of pistils and stamens may not be the same in different species. If the female parent blossoms later than the male parent, the male parent can first be placed in a cool place to make it bloom later, or the pollen of the male parent can be collected and placed in a cold and dry place. Don't take out pollination until the female pistil is mature. Most species have the highest success rate of pollination in 1-2 hours in the afternoon on the second day of flowering. Dip the pollen with a clean brush and gently apply it to the stigma of the female parent or pick up the pollen with fine tweezers and put it on the stigma. If the weather is very hot, the humidity is too large, and there is water on the flowers, the fertilization rate is not high.

Second, cut off the petals

If the ovary gradually expands after pollination, it indicates the success of pollination, and the dry petals can be cut off to prevent mildew. Plants should avoid rain and water flushing, and strengthen fertilizer and water management.

III. Timely seed collection

Cactus fruits generally mature in 50-60 days, and some species are berries, which are easily pecked by birds and other small animals when ripe, and the fruit is protected by net cover. The pericarp of some fruits is easy to crack, so we should pay attention to timely harvest. The harvested berries should be peeled off, the seeds washed, and then filtered dry. The obtained seeds should be packed in a paper bag and placed in a dry and cold place, indicating the name of the seed and the date of harvest.

Fourth, disinfect and soak the seeds

Sowing soil should be disinfected river sand or mixed sand rotten leaf soil, must be stir-fried or steamed, can not be disinfected with medicament. Before sowing, wet the pot soil with soaking method, then soak the seeds with 1% formalin or 2.5% copper sulfate solution for 15 minutes, remove and clean and sow the seeds. Small seeds can be evenly sown on the soil surface with mixed sand without covering the soil. Large seeds can be sown on demand according to the row spacing of 5mm × 5mm.
