Breeding method of velvet bamboo taro: watering

Velvet bamboo taro is commonly used in flowerpots with a diameter of 15 ~ 20 cm. Sufficient moisture and high air humidity should be maintained in the growing season. Water should be sprayed on the leaf surface and around the plant frequently to increase air humidity and keep the basin soil moist. When the temperature is low in winter, the basin soil can be slightly dry

Cultivation method of velvet bamboo taro: light

Direct sun exposure is the most taboo. Short-term sun exposure may cause serious sunburn. If the light is stronger, the leaves will shrink and turn yellow, affecting the growth

Fertilization and basin change

Apply liquid fertilizer every 15 days during the growth period. After fertilization, wash the leaves with a small amount of water immediately to avoid fertilizer damage. At the end of autumn, pay attention to spraying 0.2% ~ 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate to facilitate plant growth and improve the cold resistance in winter. When changing pots in spring every year, some or most of the old leaves can be appropriately cut to let them grow new leaves again to improve their ornamental value

Breeding method of velvet bamboo taro: pest control

Common diseases and insect pests include leaf ban disease and leaf blight. Appropriate amount of Bordeaux liquid can be sprayed for control. The insect pest is harmful to whitefly and can be sprayed with imithion emulsion. Sometimes scale insects are harmful and sprayed with Omethoate emulsion

Breeding method of velvet bamboo taro: temperature

The optimum growth temperature is 18 ℃ ~ 30 ℃. For fear of cold and frost, the overwintering temperature needs to be kept above 10 ℃. When the temperature drops below 4 ℃ in winter, it will enter the dormant state. If the ambient temperature is close to 0 ℃, it will die due to frostbite

In summer:

1. Strengthen air circulation so that the temperature in the body can be distributed

2. Put it in half shade, or cover it with half shade

3, spray it properly, 2~3 times a day. p>

In winter:

1. Move to a place with bright indoor light for maintenance

2. Outdoors, you can wrap it in plastic film for winter, but you should uncover the film every two days when the temperature is high at noon to let it breathe

Breeding method of velvet bamboo taro: fertilizer and water

There are many requirements for fertilizer and water, but they are most afraid of random fertilization, concentrated fertilizer and partial application of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. They are required to follow the fertilization (water) principle of "light fertilizer and frequent application, less amount and more times, and complete nutrition"

Spring, summer and Autumn: water once every 1 ~ 4 days for outdoor maintenance and once every 2 ~ 6 days for indoor maintenance. The watering interval in sunny days or high temperature period is shorter, and the interval in rainy days or low temperature period is longer or not. The watering time shall be arranged as far as possible when the temperature is low in the morning. Water is irrigated in summer or at low temperatures in the summer. Spray plants frequently. p>

Winter: during the winter dormancy period, it is mainly to control fertilizer and water. The interval period is about 7 ~ 10 days. The interval period is shorter in sunny days or high temperature, and longer or no watering in rainy days or low temperature. The watering time shall be arranged in sunny days with high temperature at noon as far as possible
