How to care for a freshly transplanted green jade fan

Newly planted plants do not need to be watered, and can be watered in moderation after a week.

1. Leaf cuttings: cut the robust fleshy leaves with a semi-lignified base during the growing season, dry them for 2 to 3 days, insert them into the sand or vermiculite, keep them slightly moist, and take root in 3 to 4 weeks under the condition of 20 to 25.

2. Root cuttings: After breaking off the strong roots from the base of the plant, they are still buried in the soil, exposing the soil surface for about 1 cm, and the top will sprout and grow into a new plant.

3. Green jade fans like warm, dry and abundant and soft sunlight. Resistant to drought and semi-shade, avoid dampness, not cold-tolerant, afraid of high temperature and strong direct light.

4. The plant is semi-dormant in high temperature in summer, and the growth is slow or completely stagnant at this time, so it can be placed in a ventilated and cool place for maintenance, proper shading, and reduced watering to prevent plant decay caused by hot and humid heat.

5. Winter requires sufficient sunlight, more than 10 can continue to water, so that the plant grows normally, if the watering is strictly controlled, it can also withstand the low temperature of 5.

6. Spring and autumn are the vigorous period of plant growth, keep the potting soil moist and not waterlogged, and apply a well-rotted thin liquid fertilizer in 10 to 15 days. Change the pot once a year in spring, and the potting soil should be loose and fertile, well-drained sandy soil.

7. Due to its deep root system, it should be planted in deep pots.

The basic principle is not dehydration, no flooding, and damp but not wet.

Do not bask in the sun and place in a cool place. Don't water a lot, and put the planting material directly on it without watering after it gets wet, which is called "wet dry seeding".

Succulent jade fan has a strong habit, the root system is relatively thick, the plant shape is like a fan, the leaves are thick, the top is transparent like a sheltered window, the pattern is changeable, delicate and elegant. So how to raise a lot of fleshy jade fans? Let's introduce to you the maintenance skills of the jade fan.

1. Illumination:

The jade fan is a plant that likes semi-shade and soft and sufficient sunlight, so when breeding, it is necessary to shine in spring and autumn, because the light in these two seasons is relatively soft and cannot be exposed to strong light. Give full sunlight in winter, and continue to water above 10 to make the plants grow normally.

2. Temperature:

The growth temperature of the jade fan is between 15 and 20. In winter, the temperature should be kept above 8, if the temperature is too high, it will cause the jade fan to die, because it is not resistant to high temperatures. When cultivating jade fans, they can be kept in an arid and semi-shady environment, and the humidity of the air should not be too humid.

3. Watering:

The jade fan is a drought-tolerant plant, and the demand for water is not very large, but in the growth period, due to the rapid growth of leaves, the evaporation of water is relatively large, so it is not suitable for more watering. Generally, when the summer temperature is high, the jade fan is in the dormant period, and it cannot be watered more.

4. Fertilization:

Jade fan fertilization should be based on the principle of plant growth, using a small amount of multiple methods, fertilization should pay attention to nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. combined. During the growing season, fertilization should be carried out every two weeks, and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium formula flower fertilizer should be used to facilitate the provision of long-term nutrients.

In winter, when the temperature is low, less or no fertilizer should be applied.

5. Pests and diseases

The pests and diseases of the jade fan include leaf rot and dry rot, etc., you need to pay more attention when breeding, once you find this disease and send it out, you need to spray insecticides, generally sprayed with 50% carbendazim wettable powder 1500 times. The main insect pests are whiteflies, which can be sprayed with 3000 times of 10% insecticidal essence emulsifiable concentrate.

The jade fan, also known as the truncated Haworthias, belongs to the succulents of the genus Haworthia of the lily family, also known as succulent plants, the plant has no stems, the fleshy leaves are arranged in two rows and are fan-shaped, the leaves are erect, slightly bent inward, and the top is slightly concave. The surface is rough, green to dark greenish-brown, with small wart-like protrusions, and the cross-section of the new leaves is partially transparent and grayish-white.

Jade fans should be planted in loose and fertile sandy loam soil, and should usually receive soft light and should not be exposed to strong light. Daily maintenance can not be watered too much, to avoid water accumulation, the growth period can be fertilized every 20 days, fertilizer is mostly used thin liquid fertilizer. Its propagation methods are mostly divided into three types: cuttings and sowing.

If the plant is diseased, carbendazim needs to be sprayed, and if whiteflies are present, insecticide essence emulsifiable concentrate should be sprayed.

Morphological characteristics of the jade fan.

The habit is strong and the root system is relatively strong. Some varieties also have gray-white transparent patterns on the leaf sections. Its horticultural variety, Jade Fan, has yellow or pink markings on its leaves, which is more beautiful.

The plant is low and stemless, the leaves are fleshy and erect, elongated straight to the sides, slightly bent inward, opposite, arranged in two sides, fan-shaped, slightly concave at the top, in a cross-sectional shape, as if someone had cut it with a knife. The surface is rough, green to dark greenish-brown, with small wart-like protrusions in the place of origin, the leaves will be buried in the soil, only the tip of the leaf will be exposed, and different varieties of leaf cross-sections will appear in a variety of transparent patterns. Most of the patterns are white, but the green patterns are very precious.

racemes, flower stems 20-25 cm long, cymbular shaped, white, midrib green, cm long.

The growth habit of the jade fan.

Native to southern Africa, it can now be cultivated in many parts of the world.

Prefer cool, abundant and soft sunshine. Resistant to drought and semi-shade, avoid dampness, not cold-tolerant, and afraid of high temperatures. Sufficient light is given during the growing period in spring and autumn, if the light is insufficient, the plant type will be loose, the leaves will be long, and the "window" surface will become smaller and turbid.

The ornamental value of the jade fan.

The leaves of the horticultural variety "Jade Fan Brocade" will have yellow or pink markings, which are even more rare and precious. The varieties of jade fans are very rich, mainly including Green Island, Yonggang, Mammoth, Butterfly, Dragon Palace, M-shaped, Wild Muscle, Shule and so on.

The jade fan plant is shaped like a fan, the leaves are thick, the top is transparent like a window, the pattern is changeable, delicate and elegant, like a living arts and crafts, many enthusiasts specially collect and cultivate.

The green jade fan likes semi-shade, if it is exposed to the sun, the leaves will turn light purple, which affects the ornamentation, but does not affect the growth.

Its root system is afraid of being airtight, so it is necessary to put a layer of tiles on the bottom of the pot or punch holes around the bottom of the pot, so that the root system is not easy to rot.

Watering must be dry and wet, that is, do not water until it is dry. Fertilizer is applied once every 20 days or so, and top dressing is stopped in early October to facilitate overwintering. For wintering, move into a room above 10 degrees.

Do you mean to remove leaf cuttings or divide small side buds?

There are four methods of jade fan propagation: branching, leaf cutting, root cutting, and sowing

1.Dividing method.

In the spring, the meristem is removed and left to dry for about a week, and then planted in a pot after the wound is dry, and then watered appropriately.

2.Leaf cuttings.

During the growing season, cut the robust fleshy leaves with a little lignification at the base, dry them for two or three days, insert them into a medium mixed with perlite and vermiculite, and maintain a certain humidity for 3 to 5 weeks to take root.

3.Root interpolation.

After breaking off the sturdy roots from the base of the plant, bury them in the soil, expose the soil surface about one centimeter, and the top will sprout into a new plant. The plants with vigorous growth and well-developed root system can be pulled out of the soil slightly, cut off all the centimeters below the rhizome, turn the plant over to dry the wound and plant it again, and the remaining roots will remain in the soil and will germinate.

4.Seeding method.

By artificial pollination, it produces seeds, sowing and propagating seedlings.

Jade fans are commonly propagated by ramifications and cuttings.

Divide the young plants that grow next to the mother plant in the spring, and carefully peel off the potted plants with roots. It is not advisable to water immediately after planting, because the potting soil itself has a certain amount of humidity. Water appropriately 1 week after planting.

Cuttings, using leaf cuttings, cut a fleshy leaflet, but must have a semi-lignified base, inserted into the sand bed, about 20 25 days can take root, should be operated with caution, can not cut the leaves, otherwise, it is easy to cause leaf rot.

The jade fan is native to the arid regions of southern Africa. Prefers warm, dry and sunny environments. It is not cold-tolerant, semi-shade-resistant, and is afraid of high temperatures and strong light. Fertile, loose and well-drained sandy loam soils are preferred. Winter temperatures are not lower than 10.

It is repotted every spring, with the addition of fertile, loose sandy loam soil. During the growing season, a temperature of 15 to 20 is required, and the leaves grow rapidly. However, the amount of evaporation of the leaves is large, so the watering should not be too much.

In the summer high temperature season, it enters a semi-dormant state, and it should be placed in a semi-shaded place to reduce watering. When the leaves return to growth in autumn, increase watering slightly. In winter, there should be plenty of sunlight, and if the light is too strong, the leaves will turn red.

It is best to maintain room temperature at 10 to 12. Sometimes dry rot and leaf rot damage occur, sprayed with 50% carbendazim wettable powder 1500 times. The insect pest is harmed by whiteflies, and it is sprayed with 3000 times of 10% insecticidal essence emulsifiable concentrate.

When the jade fan is cultivated at home, it is usually placed in a place with astigmatism for maintenance, and the temperature is best controlled between 12-32. The jade fan is drought-tolerant but not moisture-resistant, watering should be watered after the soil is dry, watering once a day in spring and autumn, watering once a day in midsummer 2 3 days, watering once a month in winter, fertilization should be appropriate, fertilizer can be applied once every two weeks, and flower fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is generally used.

Jade fan growing conditions.

The jade fan likes a humid growth environment, so its growth environment requires sufficient water, the soil is best moist and not waterlogged, if the winter temperature is above 10, you can continue to water, when the temperature is about 5, you need to control the watering.

How to raise a jade fan.

If we want to make our jade fan full and transparent, the temperature of breeding is better between 18 and 25 degrees, not less than 10 degrees in winter, can not be exposed to the sun during maintenance, astigmatism is the most advantageous, generally watering once or twice a week, can not accumulate water in the pot, fertilization once or twice a month can be, it is best to use liquid fertilizer, and change the pot once in the spring every year.

Jade fan watering. The jade fan is drought tolerant, does not require much water, usually can be watered once a week, the temperature is higher in summer, you can water once every three days, watering do not start from the top of the plant, be sure to water in the surrounding potting soil.

Jade fan fertilization. Jade fan fertilization should be suitable for the elderly, can be fertilized once every two weeks, generally using flower fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, long-term to provide the nutrients needed by the plant, when the temperature is low in winter, less fertilization or no fertilization.

Jade fan pest control.

The common diseases of jade fan are leaf rot and dry rot, once the disease appears, it can be sprayed with carbendazim, and there is whitefly damage in terms of insect pests, and it can be sprayed with insecticide essence emulsifiable oil.

Jade Fan Family Raising Method.

1. Watering the oak stool liters:The jade fan is drought-tolerant but not moisture-tolerant, watering to the soil after drying, the temperature is high in spring and autumn, generally watering once a day, the temperature is hot in midsummer 2 3 days watering once, the temperature is low in winter, generally watering once a month, so that the soil is dry.

2. Lighting:The growth of the jade fan does not need too much sunlight, usually put it in a place with astigmatism, and generally accept 3 to 5 hours a day in winter, insufficient light will lead to excessive growth of plants, affecting the appearance.

3. Temperature:The temperature of the jade fan maintenance environment is best controlled between 12-32, more than 32 into the dormant period, not long to stop, below 12 also into the dormant period.

4. Fertilizer:The demand for fertilizer is small, and if you want to fertilize, you can apply thin fertilizer, 2 times a month, don't apply it indiscriminately, and don't apply too much.

Precautions for the maintenance of jade fans.

When the jade fan is maintained, it is necessary to change the pot during the coarse remainder period, and prune the roots when changing the pot, and cut off the rotten roots and dead roots.

The green jade fan prefers a warm and humid growth climate, so it will generally grow in a semi-shady place, and it is more resistant to drought, but it is more afraid of hot climates, so it only needs some scattered light to grow in summer, and the temperature is kept between 10-25 degrees, so it can grow normally.
