Is there anything I need to pay attention to when raising bonsai?

Maintenance of bonsai trees should be maintained for more than 5 to 6 hours of direct light every day, of course, this requirement will be slightly different depending on the type of bonsai tree, according to whether the bonsai tree likes light to direct light or scattered light, but must not be kept in excessive shade of the place. We see bonsai trees in indoor shade at many horticultural exhibitions, but after the exhibition, these bonsai trees are moving to a sunny place and can only be kept in the shade for a short time. If your bonsai tree is kept in a place with little sunlight, you need to increase the light a little, and maintain long-term sunlight to make the bonsai tree grow better.

However, you should not let the bonsai tree be exposed to the sun all at once, and if you move from a dark place to a strong direct light environment, you should do it gradually.

When you are ready to raise a plant, you must understand the habits of the flower, the light time it needs, the level of moisture, the fear of heat and cold, whether you have time to raise it, and then start after fully understanding the situation.

Spring and autumn are the seasons of the year when the temperature is more suitable, and they are also the seasons when most plants grow quickly. Plants grow rapidly in spring and autumn and require relatively more water, so they are watered in the morning when the weather is clear. Watering at night should be avoided to avoid the water not evaporating in time and causing pests and diseases.

Of course, the frequency of watering should be based on the speed of the soil dry and wet cycle, so as to "see dry and wet". In the hot summer months, the transpiration of most plants is accelerated, requiring a lot of water, and the drying and wetting cycle of the potting soil is greatly accelerated. For flowers that grow fast during the summer months, such as tropical flowers and indoor foliage plants, try to keep the potting soil as moist as possible.

To use specific potting soil for bonsai, you can buy bonsai soil directly from the flower shop, and each bonsai tree needs different soil cultivation. Good potting soil can maintain better water retention capacity and good drainage, avoid water accumulation in the soil, but also have a certain fertility to maintain a proper pH value, that is, the acidity and alkalinity of the soil, which is best suited in between. It is also necessary to change the pot regularly, this bonsai tree depends on the growth of its root system, from one pot to another pot to choose the right time, it is best to change the pot when it is dormant in winter, and it will not store a lot of energy during the dormancy, and it will be able to quickly resume growth after changing the pot.

To breed flowers and plants, we need to know that the seedlings we just bought need to be fertilized, and the flowers and plants that have grown taller should be fertilized with black fertilizer, so that the leaves of the flowers will grow more lushly, and secondly, when they bloom, they should be fertilized so that the flowers that grow will be big and grow well.

Indoor foliage plants, according to the different characteristics of the place of origin, also have great differences in water requirements. Araceae plants and ferns such as monstera, spring feather, calla lily, and umbrella grass belong to wet flowers, and watering should be mastered"Rather wet than dry", but don't accumulate water either. Succulents such as saxifera, aloe vera, and sedum, as well as cacti are xerophytic flowers, and watering should be mastered"Rather dry than wet"。

to prevent root rot due to excessive moisture. Most other plants, such as bamboo, iron tree, begonia, etc., belong to mesophytic flowers, and soil moisture is too dry or too wet to have adverse reactions, and watering can be controlled"Dry and wet"principles.

It needs to be watered regularly, generally waiting for the soil surface, 2 4 cm of soil is dry before watering, each watering should be done thoroughly, avoid watering only a little water, and do not let the soil dry completely. To maintain a certain temperature and humidity, watering is particularly skillful, such as in summer and winter is very different, when the sun is more exposed, it is necessary to increase the frequency of watering, the temperature is lower, the sun is less to reduce the frequency of watering, generally wait for the soil surface under 2 4 cm of soil are dry, on watering once. Check the soil regularly for wet and dry conditions, but to avoid damaging the root system, it is best to water in the morning, in the summer when the temperature is warmer, or even in the morning and evening.

First of all, we must distinguish whether they like yin or yang! Generally speaking, aloe vera is a plant that is very easy to raise, and it is an evergreen plant in all seasons, and it does not require any special care, just remember a few mantras. Dry and watered thoroughly, like dry and not like wet, timely watering is a special attention in the hot summer.

Aloe vera is light-loving and heat-tolerant, but it is also necessary to prevent drought during the summer when the temperature is high and precipitation is low, and proper watering can lead to higher yields. Watering caused by can not be excessive, generally 5 10 days can be watered once. During the vigorous growth period, the nutrients in the soil are continuously absorbed by the plants, and timely topdressing will affect the growth of aloe vera.

Organic fertilizer is generally slow to fertilize, and it is not possible to wait for the growth of aloe vera to be affected before fertilization, so it is too late. Fertilization should not be too much at a time, do not stain the leaves, and rinse with water if dirty.

Soil is the basis for the growth of flowers and trees, which is not only the support for the growth and development of fixed plant roots, but also provides necessary nutrients, water and air for plant growth. Fertilizer is the nutrient needed for the growth of flowers**, which directly affects the growth and development of flowers.

For different plants, at different growth stages, timely and appropriate application of the required nutrients, in order to make the flowers grow luxuriant, flowers are flourishing. Watering is the main management work of raising flowers in the home. Water is an important component of plants and an indispensable substance for physiological activities.

Generally speaking, most evergreen trees, shrubs, etc. can be used to make bonsai plants. But herbaceous plants are not suitable for bonsai at all. When we choose bonsai plants, we can first go to the gardening store carefully**, when choosing not only to see the health of the plant, but also to see whether its shape is suitable for shaping in the future.

At the same time, when selecting leaves, see if there are any pests and diseases. However, more people choose to propagate by cuttings, striping or grafting, so that it is easier to get a small tree that meets their own requirements, which is easy to shape later. Most bonsai are single-stem, so we try to choose some plants with a single trunk when selecting them, so that they can be pruned and shaped in the future.

You need to take care of different conditions according to the type of plant you raise, and you can't just water it.

All potted plants should not be watered every day, they should be watered in moderation, and they should not be repotted frequently.

When buying a potted plant, it is best to know what its name is, in order to facilitate the inquiry of its growth habits, living environment, origin and origin climate, management points, and cultivation techniques, so as to better breed.

Indoor potted plants should pay attention to the following issues:

1. Usually watering should not be too wet to prevent moisture from causing root rot, so that watering after drying is conducive to root growth.

2. 1-2 months of proper loose pot soil is conducive to loose pot soil, breathable and drainage, and the root system will not dry up and die due to the hard pot soil board.

3. Place it in the indoor ventilation place so as not to cause disease and insects due to poor ventilation.

4. From April to May and from August to September, an appropriate amount of compound fertilizer and mineral additives should be buried on the edge of the pot to supplement the lack of nutrients in the pot to reduce the nutrient deficiency and affect the normal growth of potted plants.

Fifth, appropriately remove the potted plants to the outdoor sun for 1-2 hours in the morning and evening, enhance photosynthesis and reduce the phenomenon of growth, and it is better to put it indoors and outdoors.

6. When there are yellow leaves or dead branches, they can be pruned to reduce the pests and diseases caused by dead branches and yellow leaves.

Seventh, every year in winter or before the Qingming Festival to change the pot once a year, conducive to the normal growth of potted plants, if the flowering can be postponed to the flowering after the pot will not affect its normal flowering.

1. First of all, pay attention to the choice of potted plants. Let's not talk about the choice of the appearance of the pot, just the choice of plants. Since it is a potted plant, there are only three kinds of flowers, leaves, and fruits, and my suggestion is to watch flowers, there are many perennial flowers and plants, which are very cute, and it is not a very joyful thing to see it bloom during the planting process The small potted plants I am planting now have mini sunflowers, blue flowers, flax, and stars.

Foliage plants include reticulated grass and gyokuro. There are also beautiful and practical options, such as mint and vanilla. As for the fruiting and potted plants, bell peppers, mini radishes and strawberries are recommended.

2. Then pay attention to the planting time. Whether it is spring and autumn, spring and summer, or four seasons, it can be sown. Succulents can no longer be at high temperatures, and treasure gourds cannot be at low temperatures.

3. Pay attention to the choice of soil. If there are conditions, of course, you can match a lot of things, what plant ash, light stone, river mud, ......But in general, it is good to buy ready-made, convenient and cheap, general cultivation soil, succulent deer swamp soil, and crystal clay of hydroponic plants, clay ......These are readily available and are well documented on the packaging. Be careful with the soil, though.

4. The most important thing is to pay attention to the planting process. For example, hyacinths, we must pay attention to soaking sterilizers, daffodils, we must pay attention to cutting, and general daily small plants, we must pay attention to germination. It's simple, find a plate – put a tissue – put the seeds – sprinkle it – cover it with plastic wrap – and it will germinate in a week, and then plant it after germination, which will almost guarantee a 100% survival rate.

If you sow seeds directly, they are likely to rot or become dormant and die. Another point is that when planting small shoots, it should be covered with very thin and light soil.

5. Pay attention to follow-up maintenance. The key to watering is to "water when it is dry, and water it thoroughly at one time", watering only when the soil surface is dry, and watering until the water seeps out. Fertilization can be determined according to the plant, some like fertilizer, some don't, there are many options for fertilization, you can buy it in **, for example, there is a pack of coffee, you can soak it in water and then water it, and some are already prepared drops, which are also very convenient.

1. PlantingFor potted red maple, you can choose to mix humus, garden soil and a small amount of river sand to prepare the culture soil, and add a small amount of bone meal as base fertilizer. Due to its strong root extension ability, it is advisable to use deep tube pots as containers.

2. FertilizationFrom May to August every year, thin cake fertilizer water is generally applied once a month, and liquid fertilizer based on potassium fertilizer is changed from September, such as 1% potassium sulfate solution or plant ash leaching solution, so as to facilitate the red color of the leaves. <>

3. WateringRed maple likes to be moist during the growth process, but in addition to sufficient watering in summer, it is better not to water too much at ordinary times, and it is better to keep the potting soil moist frequently, which is conducive to maintaining the beautiful posture of the tree.

Fourth, temperature, lightDuring the growth period, it should be cultivated outdoors in a leeward and sunny place, and moved to a semi-shaded place in summer to avoid strong light exposure. <>

1. Light and temperature. The most important thing to maintain potted plants indoors is to maintain a suitable temperature and a certain amount of light, avoid raising them in places with excessive shade, and of course, avoid raising them in an environment that is overly exposed to the sun. There are some shade-tolerant plants that grow well in bright places, while some that can bloom need proper light to promote flowering.

These plants should be placed in a ventilated and light-permeable place, avoid placing them in the air outlet of air conditioning or heating, and do not place them next to large electrical appliances, and should not be attached to the glass of the window in summer and winter, otherwise they are easy to get sunburned.

2. Pay attention to watering. 80% of the plants kept indoors will hang up because of overwatering, excessive water will cause the root system of the plant to rot, if the soil is waterlogged for a long time, the soil will not be breathable, and eventually lead to the rot of the plant root system, and the whole plant will rot in serious cases. When planting plants, choose some flower pots with particularly good drainage, and the location of the drainage holes can be elastic to place some granular stones or broken tiles before planting plants.

In the peak season of plant growth, the soil can be properly kept moist, but in autumn and winter, when the temperature drops, it is necessary to control watering, and then teach water thoroughly after the soil is dry.

3. Fertilizer. Plants will lack fertilizer for a long time, especially for plants maintained by pots, especially for plants that have not been repotted for a year or two, and can be fertilized regularly in the peak season of plant growth, generally need 3 or 4 weeks to give a thin organic liquid fertilizer. Before the flowering period of the plant, you can regularly supplement some potassium dihydrogen phosphate to promote the development of flowers, if it is a plant that prefers slightly acidic soil, you should regularly supplement the ferrous sulfate solution.

Avoid fertilizing in autumn and winter after the temperature drops, otherwise it will affect plant growth. After fertilization, it is necessary to teach water permeability to avoid fertilizer residues on leaves or branches.

4. Pay attention to changing pots. If it is a slow-growing plant, it can be maintained for two or three years without changing the pot, and after a long time, it needs to be repotted regularly, which is generally changed in the growing season of the plant.

1. Potted plants should not be watered too much, because the indoor potted plants are in a cool or slightly sunny position, too much watering of potted plants will make the potting soil wet and waterlogged, causing the roots of potted plants to suffocate and rot, and the leaves will fall off and yellow. Therefore, the watering of indoor potted plants should adhere to the principle of "seeing dry and wet, watering thoroughly", and do not water sporadically or overwater.

2. Potted plants should not be fertilized too much or insufficiently. Potted plants that are not fertilized for a long time or do not fertilize enough will cause the phenomenon of leaf yellowing. If you apply too much fertilizer, the potted plants will not be able to absorb the root system and burn the root system, and the inability to absorb water will also cause the leaves to fall off.

Usually, indoor potted plants are fertilized once in the end of spring, and every other week in summer and autumn, and do not apply more thick fertilizer. If you apply too much fertilizer, you can dilute it with more water and wash away some of the fertilizer from the soil. When the lack of fertilizer can lead to the hardening of the potting soil, the leaves of potted plants are yellow, and the branches are slender and yellow.

At this time, fertilizer should be applied immediately, and the effect can be seen within a week.

3. Potted plants should not have too much or insufficient light, depending on the growth characteristics of potted plants, the light should not be too much or insufficient. Some sun-loving potted plants, such as pomegranates, rhododendrons, yueji, etc., are placed in places with too little light for a long time, which will cause the plants to gradually weaken, and the leaves are thin and yellow, and there are no or less flowers. Plants that also like shade, such as hosta, bamboo, evergreen, etc., should not be exposed to excessive sunlight, which is easy to cause the leaves to wilt and yellow, or even die.

4. Prevention and control of potted plant pests and diseases, the usual pests and diseases of indoor potted plants mainly include aphids, red spiders and leaf spot caused by viruses such as fungi. Its harm lies in the fact that it is easy to make the leaves of potted plants partially necrotic or foliar wilting, and even the whole plant is yellow. Therefore, indoor potted plants should only be kept in terms of water, fertilizer maintenance, and light management, and should be kept indoor ventilation and timely spraying prevention.
