1, choose a flowerpot.
Choose flowerpots with holes in the bottom, or replace them with wooden boxes or foam boxes, but they need to be ventilated and cleaned frequently.
2. Soil requirements
Pitaya doesn't like high pH soil. You can go to the flower market to buy some good ones. Before planting, put two small tiles at the bottom of the pot to block it, then lay a layer of pebbles and pour in the seeds.
3. Temperature
Because pitaya is a tropical plant, it likes an environment of about 30 degrees. If the temperature is too high or too low, it will fall into the "dormant period" of short-term growth.
Prepare for planting
After inserting the pitaya string into the flowerpot, pour a lot of water and put it in a sunny place. Before planting pitaya seedlings, you can lay tiles and stones under the flower box to remove excess water, prepare to plant seedlings, and then tie the seedlings in a pot with wooden sticks to help the seedlings grow normally.
fertilize the soil or land
Fertilizing pitaya is very important. Usually choose organic fertilizer. When fertilizing pitaya, it is necessary to pay attention to the correct dosage. Don't apply too much fertilizer. Excessive fertilization is not conducive to the absorption of pitaya, resulting in excess nutrition, which is not conducive to its growth. And before watering, be sure to dissolve the fertilizer in the spray tank with clear water, because it can't absorb too much fertilizer.
water
Because pitaya is a tropical fruit, it has certain drought resistance, so it doesn't need to be watered often. When the soil is dry, you can water it. When watering, be sure to water it. Water is completely poured into the soil, and frequent watering will lead to root rot and harm. Pitaya is rich in nutrition and unique in function.
To sum up, potted pitaya has temperature and humidity requirements. It is a tropical fruit and likes warm places. Water and fertilizer management and pest control should be done well after cutting.
