1、 Breeding environment

1. Soil: Leucaena leucocephala is suitable for growing in loose and well drained soil. Do not use too viscous or alkaline soil

2. Light: light silk grass is very shade resistant, so it must not be directly exposed to the sun. It's best to put it indoors for breeding, but the light should not be too dark. In summer, it should be avoided from being exposed to the sun, so as not to cause the leaves to wither and yellow

3. Temperature: Leucaena leucocephala is not cold resistant. It is best to control the temperature above 5-8 ℃ in winter, and the temperature angle will stop its growth

2、 Breeding method

1. Sowing and reproduction: sow more between 3-4, sow it into the flowerpot, pour an appropriate amount of water, and put it in a place not exposed to the sun. It will germinate in about a month

2. Cutting propagation: cut off 12-15 cm long tender stems, apply plant ash on the incision and dry in the shade, and then insert them into the prepared sand bed to keep the soil moist. When the rhizomes grow to about 20 cm, they can be planted in the basin

3、 Common diseases

The common diseases of Leucaena leucocephala include leaf spot and anthrax, which should be sprayed with Bordeaux liquid in time after onset. If root rot is found, carbendazim should be sprayed in time
