Fortune tree: water control and ventilation are indispensable

1. Water control at the root and moisturizing by spraying water on the leaves

Water control is to control watering. It is said that most fortune trees die of rotten roots, so don't water too much. In summer, the surface of the flowerpot evaporates quickly. Some flower friends quickly water it when they see that the soil on the surface is dry. They don't know that the water in the pot is still there. So it's best to put a chopstick in the basin, pull it up and have a look once in 2-3 days. When the chopsticks are dry, pour them thoroughly

In summer, the leaf surface evaporates greatly and is easy to dry. Sometimes, even if there is no water shortage in the basin, the leaves are drooping. At this time, it is necessary to spray water to moisturize. Spray water around the leaves of the fortune tree with a water spray pot, which can not only cool down, but also make the leaves refreshed quickly

2. Strengthen ventilation to avoid rotten roots

Fortune tree likes a ventilated environment best. The place near the balcony, windowsill and corridor at home is not only ventilated, but also has some astigmatism, which is very suitable for growing fortune tree. If there is no ventilation, the water in the basin can not evaporate in time, and it is easy to rot roots

3. Fertilize properly and jump to the roof in a summer

It is said that fortune trees grow slowly, so we can't miss the growth period in summer. We should quickly and appropriately add fertilizer, mainly nitrogen fertilizer: retting rice washing water, bean cake water, or mixing slow-release fertilizer and compound fertilizer into the soil. Add fertilizer every half a month, and you can make a big change in a summer

4. Treatment of yellow leaves and rotten roots

If the leaves of the fortune tree droop and turn yellow because of too much watering and lack of ventilation. At this time, quickly remove the yellow leaves, move the fortune tree to a ventilated place, suspend watering for 3-5 days, and then water normally when the situation improves

If the situation doesn't improve in 3-5 days and the yellow leaves continue, dig them out and have a look. The roots may be rotten. Cut off the rotten part with a knife and soak it in carbendazim solution or potassium permanganate solution for 20 minutes

After disinfection, it is directly inserted into the water for hydroponic culture. The water here is preferably dried tap water (dechlorination). During hydroponic culture, a little rooting powder or vitamin B and aspirin can be added to accelerate rooting

If you feel troublesome, you can also cut a thin branch for hydroponic culture. As long as it is a healthy annual strong branch, the success rate of hydroponic culture is very high

Longevity flower: your home is dormant, others' homes are blooming

1. Can longevity flowers bloom during dormancy

When the temperature exceeds 35 degrees, longevity begins to enter the dormancy period, but some flower friends' longevity is in full bloom. What's going on? The first choice is temperature. If longevity is moved into the air conditioning room or kept in a cool Beiyang terrace, the temperature is about 23-30 degrees, longevity will not enter the dormancy period and continue to grow normally

Then there is light. Shorten the light time. Just accept light sunlight for 4 hours during the day, and put the rest in the shade. In this way, the temperature difference between cold and hot is 8-10 degrees. Longevity is mistaken for flowering, so it blooms

Of course, if your longevity flower has entered the dormancy period, don't toss about like this, and quickly learn how to spend the summer safely~

2. How to judge whether longevity is dormant

Most longevity will dormant in July and August. If the growth rate of longevity slows down significantly, it shows that it is dormant when it looks that it is not long, does not blossom, and the leaves are either yellow or black rot

3. Dormant longevity how to spend summer

If your longevity is dormant, start watering less, move it to a cool and ventilated place, trim the yellow leaves and reduce nutritional consumption. Don't do any fertilization or basin change until September

4. Long life scissors, 1 basin to 10 basins

The longevity of dormancy period is easy to grow in vain. Flower friends must pay attention to this problem. If it grows in vain, trim it quickly, otherwise it will be late in autumn! The pruning shall follow the principle of "removing two leaves and leaving four", that is, for the branches with 6 pairs of leaves, the length of 2 pairs of leaves shall be cut off at the top, and the rods with 4 pairs of leaves shall be left. As shown in the figure below, it has been too long, which is very serious. It is suggested to remove 3 pairs of leaves

The pruned branches can also be cutted again. Now the operation is also OK. Insert the flower branches in the breathable sand, pour water, put them on the cool and ventilated North windowsill, spray water and moisturize every day, and they can take root in about 1-2 weeks
