Kumquat tree potted plant breeding methods and precautions are as follows:

Preparation materials: containers, sand, kumquat saplings, fertilizer.

One, choose the container

Planting kumquat use pots should be large, space is too small, it will limit its growth, you can choose the permeable tile pot, it is permeable, conducive to the respiration of the root system, but also can be used to use the wooden boards to order a size suitable for the box.

Soil should be loose, fertile, available loam, sandy loam, you can choose to make their own soil, garden soil, fine sand, charcoal soil in accordance with the ratio of 2:2:1 preparation, no charcoal soil can also be replaced with vermiculite, planting before the bottom of the application of fertilizer, organic fertilizer mixed in the soil as a bottom fertilizer.

Two, young trees on the pot

In the planting of the pot, we must first water the soil, so that it is in a semi-humid state, first in the bottom of the pot into 1/3 of the soil, and then the purchase of saplings placed upright in the center of the pot, the hand will be fixed, and the other hand to fill in the soil, when filling the soil in half, gently lifting up the plant, so that the young tree's roots can be better stretched, and then continue to fill in the soil, do not fill the soil, so that the young tree can better spread the roots. Then continue to fill the soil, do not fill the soil, the soil level from the edge of the pot about 10cm on the line, according to the solid soil should be watered thoroughly, move the pot to a cool place to slow down the seedlings can be.

Three, appropriate light

Kumquat is like sunshine, but in the absence of a good seedling, do not put into the sun to raise, slowing down the seedling to gradually see the light, you can be placed on the balcony or outdoor light location to raise. In the summer outdoor sunlight will be very strong, in order to avoid the branches and leaves sunburn, can be moved to the semi-shade, or with the sunshade net for shade, but can not be a long time without sunlight, or kumquat will be futile, but also affect the flowering and fruiting.

Four, fertilization methods

Kumquat fertilization, as far as possible in its flowering and fruiting time to choose a high content of phosphorus fertilizers, can promote the flower, the results should go to the choice of high-potassium fertilizer supplements, potash fertilizer can strengthen the roots, can let the fruit quickly expand and mature, but also can play a role in preventing fruit drop. Fertilizer frequency to ensure that 2~3 times a month can be, in the growth of branches without flowering no results, then you can use multi-element fertilizer.

Fifth, proper pruning

Kumquat is vigorous, in the maintenance of kumquat should pay attention to its timely pruning, can be in the spring of each year on the kumquat pruning treatment, cut off the futile, too dense branches, not only is conducive to the improvement of kumquat ornamental value, but also promote the growth of the kumquat side buds, so that the kumquat growth is more luxuriant.

Six, pay attention to the pot

Kumquat every time you change the pot, you can bury some bottom fertilizer, and pots to choose a big one, do not limit to the growth of the root system, in the growth period, you can add some slow-release fertilizer in the pot, into the bud budding period, add some phosphorus and potassium-containing fertilizers, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate and so on.

Note

Kumquats should be supplemented with water during the growth period, the potting soil can not be too dry, the leaves will dry up if the lack of water is serious, when the potting soil becomes dry, we should give water as soon as possible.

Generally, spring and summer can be appropriate more watering, the fall and winter seasons should be less watering, as long as the soil is not dry on the line, in the kumquat flowering period, you should control the watering, because the soil is too wet, the flowers are prone to fall, the fruit growth status is also not good.
