Podocarpus bamboo cypress breeding methods and precautions? How do you cut? Can you grow water?

The aliases of bamboo and cypress are Luohanchai, big fruit bamboo and cypress, mountain fir, bamboo leaf cypress, so the breeding methods and matters needing attention of bamboo and cypress? How to cuttage? Can I get hydroponic culture? It is understood that bamboo and cypress prefer a warm and humid growth environment, and the suitable temperature for growth is between 18 ℃ and 26 ℃, which can endure shade.

First, the culture methods and matters needing attention of bamboo and cypress?

Temperature

The suitable growth temperature of bamboo and cypress is between 18 ℃ and 26 ℃, and the cold resistance is poor, and the lowest low temperature is 7 ℃ below zero.

Light

Bamboo and cypress are more shady, avoid hot sun exposure, and pay attention to shading from May to September. You can build a sunshade net or put the flowerpot in a place where there is no direct sunlight for maintenance, so as not to burn the rhizome with strong direct light, causing the plant to die.

Watering

Bamboo and cypress like the moist growth environment, but in the usual maintenance, we must avoid stagnant water, we must pay attention to grasp the appropriate amount of water and watering times, and so on when the soil is dry, we can spray more water on the leaves to increase air humidity and make the leaves bright and green.

Soil

Bamboo and cypress have strict requirements on soil and prefer deep, fertile and loose acid sandy loam.

Fertilizer application

Potted bamboo and cypress generally do not need to be fertilized, but in order to ensure that their leaves are dark green, alum fertilizer can be applied 2-3 times in the peak growing season.

Pruning

Bamboo and cypress will enter dormant or semi-dormant state in winter, at this time, thin branches, disease and insect branches, over-dense branches and withered branches can be cut off, which can not only maintain the beautiful plant type, but also prevent the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.

Matters needing attention

The basin of bamboo and cypress can be changed every spring, and the basin soil is suitable to be made of rotten leaf soil or peat soil, garden soil and sandy soil at the ratio of 3:2:1. In winter, bamboo and cypress are placed in a bright place indoors, and watering is controlled at the same time, keeping the temperature not lower than 0 ℃ to survive the winter safely.

Once the occurrence of diseases and insect pests, timely prevention and control.

Second, how to cut it?

1. Cuttage pruning and treatment of bamboo and cypress.

After cutting off the branches, select the strong part of the growth, cut into a section of about 5-15 cm in length, each section with more than 3 leaf nodes. When cutting cuttings, cut flat at the uppermost leaf node about 1 cm upward, while the lower cut is located at the bottom leaf node downward about 0.5 cm for oblique shearing, the upper and lower cuts should be flat, and a leaf can be retained. Hardwood cuttings are carried out after the temperature rises in early spring, and the cuttings are suitable for the selection of first-year strong-growing branches. Each cuttage usually needs to retain 3 and 4 nodes, and the cutting method is basically the same as that of softwood cuttings.

Soak the cuttings in potassium permanganate solution for about 3 minutes, and then soak the base of cuttings in LBA solution for about 4-5 hours.

2. Cutting methods of bamboo and cypress.

Before cutting, use bamboo sticks to punch holes about 3-5 cm deep in the substrate, then insert the treated cuttings into the holes, pay attention to keep the direction of the leaves of the cuttings consistent, avoid covering the leaves of the adjacent cuttings, and finally compact the base with your hands, watering the cuttings in time after cutting, so that the cuttings and the substrate can be in close contact.

3. Management of bamboo and cypress after planting.

Sunshade needs to be done after insertion, shading should reach 50%, 80% or so. Wait until the roots of bamboo and cypress grow, then gradually remove the shading net, remove the shading net at 4 pm every sunny day, and cover it before 9 o'clock the next morning. Wait until the seedling height is about 25-30 cm, you can come out of the nursery for afforestation.

Third, can it be hydroponically cultivated?

Bamboo and cypress can be cultured in aquaculture.

Maintenance of bamboo and cypress hydroponics and matters needing attention:

The choice of containers for hydroponic culture of bamboo and cypress requires a slightly larger container so that the roots can better stretch out in the water.

It is suitable for water to choose aseptic cold boiled water. If tap water is used, because the bleach contained in tap water will adversely affect the roots of the plant, it needs to be precipitated for a day before use. Water does not need too much, generally with the depth as the root of 3-stroke-4 or 2-stroke-3, other parts can breathe better even if exposed to the air.
