It's plain sailing. How to keep it? What do you need to pay attention to?

Smooth sailing is not only a blessing for the New Year, but also the title of a plant. Its leaves are long elliptic lanceolate, both ends are tapered, and the veins are obvious. It is one of the plants widely planted in the courtyard or indoor. How to raise smooth sailing? What should I pay attention to when farming?

1. Reproduction

Plant division propagation: May to June is the best; the whole plant from the pot out, from the base of the plant cluster will be cut open rhizomes, each cluster at least 3 to 4 leaves, after planting half shade restoration.

Sowing propagation: After flowering, seeds can be obtained by artificial pollination. Seed should be sown immediately after harvest, germination temperature is 30℃, germination 10~15 days after sowing.

Tissue culture propagation: young inflorescences and lateral buds were used as explants. After disinfection, they were inoculated on MS medium supplemented with 10 mg/L 6-benzylaminoadenine and 2 mg/L indoleacetic acid. Callus and adventitious buds grew after 40~45 days. Adventitious buds were transferred to MS medium supplemented with 2 mg/L indoleacetic acid and induced to root in about 30~40 days.

2. Light

Smooth sailing is more resistant to shade, so it is suitable for growing in a semi-shady environment and avoid direct sunlight. According to experiments, about 60% of scattered light can meet the growth needs of smooth sailing, so it can be cultured indoors with bright scattered light all year round. If it is exposed to bright light, it will cause yellowing of the leaves and even direct sunburn. Northern winter greenhouse cultivation can not shade or less shade, if the light is too dark for a long time, it is not easy to bloom.

3. Temperature

Smooth sailing likes high temperature, especially afraid of cold, the most suitable growth temperature is 20-28℃, once it is put indoors in winter, it can withstand the lowest temperature of 10 degrees, so in winter it should pay attention to, so relatively speaking, the northern breeding conditions are too poor, smooth sailing placed at low temperature for a long time, it will cause root rot, leaves fall off or scorched yellow, serious and even lead to death.

4. Soil

Soil is the basis of culture, smooth potted soil loose, drainage and good ventilation, can not use heavy clay soil, generally available rotting soil, peat soil mixed with a small amount of pearlite prepared into matrix, planting with a small amount of organic fertilizer as base fertilizer.

5, watering

Smooth sailing has a high demand for water and must always keep the basin soil moist. But can not accumulate water, once watering too much, a lot of water accumulated in the basin, it is easy to cause rotten roots and plant withered. In summer and drought, it is necessary to regularly spray water on the leaves and the ground to increase the humidity of the air, so as to facilitate its growth. In winter, watering should be controlled, and it is appropriate to use slightly wet pot soil.

6. Fertilization

Because smooth sailing grows fast, need fertilizer amount is bigger, reason grows season every 1-2 weeks must apply liquid fertilizer. Fertilization should be applied thinly, do not apply thick fertilizer or raw fertilizer, and irrigate with clear water after applying solid fertilizer. It is best to replace clear water with thin fertilizer water, which generally does not produce fertilizer damage, and the plants grow luxuriantly.

7. Pest

This is a common disease of domesticated plants, which can be avoided with proper care. If harmful mites harm, the leaves show wilting, luster fading, yellow withered and other adverse symptoms, can be sprayed acaricide control, such as dicofol, nisolon, pyridaben, etc.

Smooth farming precautions

1, white caltrop needs higher growth humidity, if the air is too dry will cause wilting leaves.

2, master the appropriate light level, in general, planting white crane needs at least 73% shade degree, in summer, 80% shade degree will be better, if the light level is too low, white crane leaves color will become pale, but also produce growth retardation phenomenon.

3, white crane is easy to grow, but the demand for magnesium is much higher than many other foliage plants, when the magnesium supply is insufficient, the edge of the old leaves of white crane will turn yellow.

4. Control of root rot is critical; if the plant is infected with root rot, its roots will turn black, and cause the old leaves to wither and wither, which will lead to plant death in severe cases.

5. Spraying gibberellic acid artificially induces flowering of plants. Different varieties have different flowering time. It should be noted that too high concentration of gibberellic acid will cause deformation of flowers.

6, according to the variety to choose the appropriate size of the container.
