What do you need to pay attention to when raising duck palm wood?

Precautions. 1.Fertilize. Duck palm wood needs to be applied liquid fertilizer every two weeks, and from May to September, 20% cake fertilizer water needs to be applied twice a month.

2.Watering. Duck palm wood is drought tolerant and moisture-tolerant, and it is necessary to observe the moisture of the soil to determine how much water to water, generally watering thoroughly at one time.

3.Trim. Duck palm wood does not need to be pruned, and if the leaves are more severe, the leaves can be pruned off to promote the germination of new branches.

The requirements of potting soil, you need to use a relatively deep pot soil can be used humus, duck palm wood has a certain cold resistance and moisture resistance, watering is more appropriate. Illumination requirements, duck palm wood likes a warm growth environment, fertilization requirements are generally carried out twice a month, change the potting soil, potting soil must be changed every 1 2 years.

Light: Raising duck palm wood should receive 4 5 hours of light every day, and indoor maintenance can be placed in a place with scattered light or semi-shade. In winter, it can be maintained with full sunshine.

Do not stay in an environment with too much sunlight for a long time, and there will be burn spots on the leaves, or even all the leaves will turn yellow. If it grows in too much shade, the plant tends to grow and the leaves will turn yellow.

Soil: duck palm wood can not grow in the clay and heavy alkaline soil, like loose and breathable, fertile slightly acidic sandy soil, soil mixing method can be mixed with 5 parts of peat soil + 3 parts of humus soil + 2 parts of river sand, and then add a small amount of cake fertilizer at the bottom of the pot as the base fertilizer.

Watering: Duck palm wood likes a moist environment and is drought tolerant, so it is still relatively easy to raise. When you find that the soil is dry, you need to water it thoroughly, and be careful not to water it too much.

In spring and autumn, water 1 2 times a week. In the hot summer, water is generally watered once a day to keep the soil slightly moist. In winter, it grows slowly, and it is watered once every 5 to 7 days.

Spray water mist on the leaves regularly to increase the humidity of the air and make the leaves green and shiny.

Fertilization: Duck palm wood fertilization is mainly in the growth period of April and September, about 1 time a month to apply thin fertilizer, fertilizer selection of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer or cake fertilizer water. Duck palm wood is a foliage plant, can be applied nitrogen fertilizer-based fertilizer, but nitrogen fertilizer should not be overused, which will cause the markings of the flowering leaf duck palm wood to disappear and turn green.

During the dormant period, the fertilizer must be stopped, otherwise the root system will not be able to absorb the fertilizer, which will cause damage and affect the healthy development of the plant.

Pruning: The sub-account of the seedling stage only needs to prune off the overly dense branches and leaves and the branches and leaves with messy growth. In spring, Duanzhen pruned during the germination period, mainly by topping and combing, cutting off the upper and bottom tips of the main trunk, inhibiting the height of plant type, and promoting the germination of new shoots of side branches.

According to the growth status of the plant, the overgrown and messy branches and leaves should be thinned in time to avoid affecting photosynthesis and respiratory growth.

It is best to choose loose and fertile soil when breeding duck palm wood, try to choose suitable cultivation soil, you can add an appropriate amount of cake fertilizer to the soil, duck palm wood is suitable for growing in a semi-shady environment, and it is about 4 hours in the sun every day.

Duck palm wood is easy to germinate long branches, and it is necessary to pay attention to plastic pruning to promote the germination of side branches and maintain a good tree shape. The young plants are thinned and lightly pruned, and the modeling is the main thing. When the size of the old plant is too large, it can be re-pruned in combination with repotting.

Most of the shoots should be cut off, and some of the roots must be cut off and re-potted to allow new leaves to germinate. Its branches and leaves are easy to grow, and it usually needs to be pruned more often, and the excessively long branches are cut off in time. During the seedling period, as long as there is proper thinning, the main thing is to prune the shape.

Duck palm wood breeding skills

The growth of plants is inseparable from nutrients, and the duck palm wood itself prefers fertilizer, so if you want it to grow more vigorously, nutrients must not be missing, generally with nutritionally balanced compound fertilizer or nitrogen-rich fertilizer, or you can apply a few slow-release fertilizers on the edge of the pot, and the water will slowly seep into the pot soil.

However, when fertilizing, flower friends must follow the principle of thin fertilizer diligently, a small amount of many times, and do not apply thick fertilizer and raw fertilizer to avoid burdening the root system of duck palm wood, and even fertilizer damage.

Breeding duck palm wood to use loose and fertile potting soil, watering requirements are not high, as long as it is not too dry or too much water, generally placed in the position of sufficient scattered light maintenance, avoid strong direct light, nitrogen fertilizer twice a month during the growth period, yellow leaves and dead branches to prune off to save nutrients, every 1 2 years in the spring to change the potting soil.

1. Potting soil requirements

Breeding duck palm wood to use a deeper pot, the bottom of the pot to have drainage holes, the soil can be used humus soil, garden soil, river sand each a mixture, which is not only conducive to drainage and ventilation, but also has a certain fertility, very suitable for breeding duck palm wood.

2. Watering requirements

Duck palm wood has a certain cold tolerance and moisture resistance, so watering does not need to be too particular, as long as it is not watered all year round, the potting soil has been dry and cracked, or the watering is too much, so that the roots are soaked in water for a long time, there will not be much problem, proper watering on the line.

3. Lighting requirements

Duck palm wood likes a warm growth environment, and more shade tolerant, generally placed in the position of sufficient scattered light to maintain, in the duck palm wood breeding methods and precautions, it can not accept too strong light, so it should not be placed in direct sunlight.

4. Fertilization requirements

Breeding duck palm wood only needs to apply some nitrogen fertilizer or cake fertilizer in the growing season, generally twice a month can be fertilized, each fertilizer should be watered immediately after watering, if it is applied cake fertilizer liquid can be carried out together with watering.

1. Pruning branches and leaves

Under normal circumstances, duck palm wood does not need to be pruned, but in the growth process it is inevitable that there will be some yellow leaves and dead branches, etc., which may be the reason for maintenance, or it may be normal metabolism, at this time you can cut off the dead branches and yellow leaves, which can not only save nutrients, but also promote the germination of new branches.

2. Replace the potting soil

When breeding duck palm wood, it is generally necessary to replace the potting soil every 1 2 years, and the potting soil is limited, and the nutrients in the soil will be lost in two years, and it is also easy to appear the phenomenon of soil compaction, so the potting soil should be changed every 1 2 years.
