1, suitable basin soil
To cultivate boxwood bonsai, it is necessary to ensure that the soil is suitable and choose the appropriate flowerpot according to the plant size. There must be holes in the bottom of the flowerpot. In addition, to use loose, breathable and nutrient-rich slightly acidic soil for maintenance, humus soil, river sand soil, pastoral soil and a small amount of organic fertilizer can be mixed and prepared.
2. The light is suitable. Boxwood has a strong adaptability to light. It is suggested to maintain in a well-lit place to ensure about 6 hours of light every day, which is more conducive to plant growth. In addition, the light is strong in summer, so corresponding shading measures should be taken to avoid the damage of strong light to plants.
Step 3 Water method
Buxus macrophylla likes humid environment, and the growth of plants cannot be separated from sufficient water. Watering should be based on the principle of seeing dry and wet. Keep the soil moist in spring, summer and autumn, but there can be no water. In winter, plants need less water. At this time, it is necessary to reduce watering plants and keep the soil dry.
4. Fertilization methods The growth of boxwood bonsai is inseparable from suitable nutrients. Fertilization should be based on the principle of thin application and more fertilizer. Apply dilute liquid fertilizer every 20 days during the growing period, and then apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer before winter to promote the growth of plant roots, which is more conducive to the overwintering of plants.
5. Change the soil in the basin
During the maintenance of Euonymus japonicus bonsai, the soil should be changed every 1~2 years, and the new soil should be replaced for maintenance, so as to provide a better growth environment for plants. When changing soil, the roots of plants should be trimmed and disinfected.
