Curing method of duck foot wood

Duck foot wood leaves are very similar to duck feet, very image and personality, so it is also a relatively easy to identify flowers and plants. Because the duck foot wood keeps the four seasons evergreen, strong ornamental, and can play a good role in embellishing and beautifying the environment, so many potted friends use it as a potted plant for appreciation.

However, if we want to make the duck foot wood fully reflect its application value, the first thing we need to do is to raise it well and develop its own characteristics. Therefore, the daily maintenance and management work is particularly important. So, how to maintain potted duck feet? The following editor will share with you the conservation methods of duck foot wood. In the process of conservation of duck foot wood potted plants, we mainly need to pay attention to the following aspects:

The first aspect: soil

Duck foot wood prefers loose and breathable sandy loam, and weak acidity is suitable for basin soil. Of course, this is also the most basic requirement of many potted flowers and plants for potted soil, so duck foot wood is not very picky about potted soil. As long as the basin soil is not too barren, not sticky, not alkaline to ensure that it can maintain normal growth.

The third aspect: lighting

Duck foot wood is a kind of light-loving plant, as long as the light intensity is not very large, the original can grow normally in the full sunshine environment. But at the same time, it is also resistant to semi-overcast, afraid of lack of light environment. If we keep it under insufficient light for a long time, or expose it to the hot sun in summer, it will also cause poor plant growth. Usually put it in a brightly lit place for maintenance.

The second aspect: temperature

The ambient temperature must be suitable for the maintenance of duck foot wood. Usually, duck foot wood can maintain normal growth at the temperature between 5 °C and 35 °C, but if it is lower than 5 °C or higher than 35 °C, the growth of the plant will be affected by low temperature or high temperature. Therefore, we should provide it with a suitable temperature environment to ensure that it can maintain normal growth.

The fourth aspect: moisture

Duck foot wood prefer the wet basin soil environment, but at the same time afraid of waterlogging, water resistance is relatively poor, so usually need to pay special attention to water management. Generally adopt the way of spraying more water and less watering to maintain the humidity environment needed for its growth. Because watering is often due to temporary failure to control the amount of water, it is easy to cause stagnant water in the basin, and the duck foot wood is not resistant to water, so this is disadvantageous to its growth.

The fifth aspect: fertilizer

Duck foot wood is not highly dependent on fertilizer, the amount of fertilizer is not large, but if you want it to grow more robust, there can be no lack of fertilizer. Especially in the growing season, it is better to apply total element liquid fertilizer for about a month, but in the dormant period under low temperature in winter, the fertilizer should be stopped in time.

The sixth aspect: diseases and insects

If the planting method is not scientific or the growth conditions are not suitable, it will affect the growth of duck foot wood to a great extent, usually resulting in weak growth. In the case of weak growth, the resistance of the plant is naturally very poor, so it is very easy to be infected with diseases and insect pests, so we usually have to take preventive measures in advance. Once there are signs of infection of diseases and insect pests, it is necessary to spray them in time.
