Planting method of succulent plants
1. Illumination of planting methods of succulents
Succulent plants are used to the sun, and they will grow better with light. However, pay attention to the strong sunshine in summer, and do not expose succulents to the sun, so as to avoid the page withering due to the rapid evaporation of water.
Second, the succulent plants planting method of watering
When watering succulents, you should pay attention to seeing them dry and wet, that is, water them when they are dry, and water them thoroughly, and then water them again after they are dry again. Too frequent watering will lead to diseases and pests caused by rotten roots and dampness. If you don't water all the time, it will lead to withering due to lack of water and serious death.
3. Soil for planting succulents
The soil should be loose, breathable, well drained, neutral or slightly acidic, and must be sterile, otherwise succulents are likely to rot and die due to fungal infection.
4. Temperature of planting methods for succulents
The breeding temperature of succulents is preferably between 15-28℃, and 5-35℃ is the limit, and lower than 5℃ or higher than 35℃ may lead to the death of succulents.
Key points of planting succulents
The growth of any plant needs sunshine, soil and water, so do succulents. To cultivate succulents, we must first choose suitable soil.
The soil should be loose, breathable, well drained and have certain water retention capacity. It is best not to use the soil in the vegetable garden or flower bed, which is delicate and easy to agglomerate, resulting in the roots of succulents unable to breathe and rot. Better quality soil is river sand, cinder, red jade soil, pumice, diatomite and so on.
In fact, there is not much emphasis on the choice of flowerpots. Plastic, iron, wood and ceramics are all possible. But the most important thing is that there must be drainage holes at the bottom of the flowerpot. Without drainage holes, it is difficult to control the water poured. With the drainage hole, excess water can be discharged through the drainage hole.
When watering, be sure to keep the water as clean as possible to reduce the introduction of bacteria. You can choose carbendazim water or pure water if possible. When watering, you should first water a circle around the basin to let the water slowly penetrate into the roots of succulents. Don't water too much to prevent root rot.
Fertilizer supply for succulents is not suitable for succulents who have just arrived in the basin and have not served it too much, because the roots have not yet grown well. Fertilization must wait until the plant grows stably, and not too much fertilizer should be given, so as not to affect the acidity and alkalinity of the soil and lead to rot of the fleshy roots.
When basking in the sun, you should also pay attention to the succulents that have just been placed in the basin. Don't be exposed to too strong sunlight, which may easily cause plants to shrivel up. When the plants are stable, they begin to gradually receive sunlight. At noon in summer, it is necessary to avoid direct sunlight, keep plenty of meat shaded, ventilated and short of water.
Morphological characteristics of fleshy meat
⑴ Flowers: Every cactus can blossom. Many species can blossom quickly as long as they are cultivated properly. For example, it takes only three years for the species of future players to blossom from sowing to flowering. In cultivation, grafting can also blossom in advance.
Flowers are usually planted on thorns. However, the flower and thorn base of mastoid globule are not in the same position. The species of cactus usually bloom on mature flaky stems that have been fully exposed to sunlight. Tall cactus columns can bloom from the middle of the stems to the near top, and strangely, flowers often spread out on one or several edges, while there are no flowers on the adjacent edges.
Many kinds can bloom a large number of flowers at a time. County flower, snake whip column, celestial ruler and cactus (commonly known as grass ball) also have such characteristics when they bloom, that is, when they don't bloom, they can bloom dozens or more at the same time, but strangely, the time when the buds appear and the size of the buds are obviously uneven, but they can bloom at the same time.
However, there are also many species that don't bloom much in cultivation. Although they bloom every year, they only bloom one or two. Such as Huangshan, Guanglin Ball, etc. There are some species that have never seen flowers for decades, which is because some species mature late, and there are insufficient cultivation conditions or problems in methods. For example, Weng Jin, a genus of cornus Cervi, said in the literature that flowers are beautiful and long, but they can't be seen even after decades of planting. It turns out that it must meet two conditions for flowering: first, the old plant can blossom; Second, it requires high temperature and sufficient ultraviolet rays in winter.
Flowers are usually radiation symmetric. Shapes are funnel-shaped, trumpet-shaped, high-legged dish-shaped, cup-shaped and so on. The flowers of a few genera and species are bilaterally symmetrical, such as crab claw orchid, corolla column and snow blowing column. Petals usually only have? With two or three layers, the species of Stylosanthes with double flowers has been produced by hybridization, but it is still introduced in China. Petals are usually entire, and only a few kinds of petals, such as ridged waves, have eyelash-like edges.
In addition to the real blue and black, there are all kinds of colors, and they are ever-changing It is also a red flower, and its color is different with different kinds. Many kinds of petals have metallic luster and are very eye-catching. Many kinds of pistil stigma and stamen filaments have bright colors, especially some species of cornucopia and southern jade. The stigma is green and purple, with velvet luster, which is very beautiful in contrast to the petals.
The flowering period is 3? May is the most concentrated, and there are not many kinds of flowers in autumn, but many kinds can be grafted in spring to make them bloom in autumn. Crab claw orchid, fairy finger, phoenix-winged peacock, jade swan, white star, white amber, snow moon flower and the ball out of the sun bloom in the middle of winter, bringing a lot of vitality to the cold and boring winter.
⑵ Fruits: Fruits are usually fleshy berries, and a few are dried fruits. Shapes are pear-shaped, round and stick-shaped. There are prickles or scales on the peel. Many kinds of fruits are beautiful, such as ridgepole and new bridge; The fruit of the measuring ruler is big and red, and the fruit of the beautiful Wolong column and the single thorn measuring ruler is lemon yellow. The fruit of the silver-decorated dragon is dark blue, shaped like a jar, and the flower-like lid with a handle (figure 1) is really vivid and breathtaking.
Some large fruits are edible, and the fruits of Tianzhi, Lingjian Lotus, Wolong Column and many cactus species are not only edible, but also diuretic.
⑶ Seeds: There are many shapes, usually round, oval and oblate. The seeds of the genus Astra are helmet-shaped, also called bowl-shaped. The seeds of Stylosanthes are hollow cylinders, also called sleeping bags. The seeds of other columnar species are mostly kidney-shaped. Seeds of the genus Pterocarpus have corky wings. Very strange.
