How to maintain potted jade trees? What should I look out for?

The optimal growing temperature of the jade tree is between 20 and 30 degrees, and in winter the temperature is low enough to be moved out to bask in the sun, while in the summer the temperature is too high and can be kept indoors.

Yushu is not very strict on the requirements of potting soil, with the basic principle of preparing fertile and loose, breathable and permeable sandy loam, you can use humus, peat, vermiculite and other mixed substrates as potting soil, you can also use humus, garden soil, cinder and so on according to a certain proportion of preparation.

It has a certain influence with the original growing environment. Yushu prefers warm, dry and sunny environments. Not cold-tolerant, afraid of strong light, slightly shade-tolerant. Fertile soil, well-drained sandy loam soil is preferred. Winter temperatures are not lower than 7.

1. Potting soil requirements: the most suitable time for changing potting soil and planting time is early spring. The potting soil should be loose, fertile and well-drained.

You can choose 2 parts of humus or peat soil, 2 parts of garden soil, 3 parts of coarse sand, 1 part of limestone gravel, or 3 parts of humus soil, garden soil, and coarse sand, and 1 part of bone meal and plant ash to fully mix the culture soil as potting soil.

2. Temperature requirements: The temperature between 20-30 degrees is the most conducive to the growth of jade trees. Spring and autumn are the most suitable growth periods for Yushu.

Yushu is afraid of strong light. In summer, when the temperature is high, pay attention to keep the plants in a cool place and avoid direct sunlight. When the temperature of the jade tree grows above 38 degrees, the growth rate will start to slow down and even enter a short period of dormancy.

In winter, pay attention to the temperature and place the plants in a greenhouse, preferably in a sunny place. The room temperature should not be lower than 7 degrees. Temperatures below 0 can cause the plant to freeze to death.

The jade tree in the growing period needs shade in addition to the high temperature and heat in summer. Keep it in a sunny place.

3. Watering requirements: When the jade tree is in the growth period, the watering frequency needs to be controlled to water once every two to three days. There should be no stagnant water, and it is also necessary to avoid over-wetting of the potting soil.

In summer, the number of watering should be controlled, and ventilation should be strengthened to avoid the phenomenon of falling leaves. In winter, it is necessary to reduce the watering of jade trees. The specific principle depends on the wetness and dryness of the potting soil.

It is better to slightly dry the potting soil.

4. Fertilization requirements: Proper fertilization can be applied during the growth period of jade trees. Generally, apply 2 to 3 times a month to decompose thin cake liquid fertilizer.

Before changing the soil or planting, sufficient base fertilizer should be applied, and well-rotted organic fertilizer, such as chicken manure, pigeon manure, bone meal, large manure and urine, and various cake fertilizers can be added to the culture soil as base fertilizer. In order to keep the plant plump, the fertilizer water should not be too large, so as not to cause growth.

5. Note: Apply thin fertilizer water every 10 days and half a month, and water every 2 to 3 days to see dry and wet. In the middle of summer, when the temperature is high, the swallow's palm is in a semi-dormant state, and it is afraid that the leaves will be burned by strong light, so it is necessary to do a good job of shading and maintenance.

Stop fertilizing in summer and pay attention to ventilation to prevent the leaves from turning yellow and falling off. If it rains heavily, avoid the rainstorm to avoid water accumulation and rotten roots.

1. Choose a flower pot: To maintain the jade tree in a pot, you must first choose a suitable flower pot, the size should be consistent with the plant, under normal circumstances, the diameter can be kept at about 16 to 28 cm. The material should ensure good air permeability, and the bottom of the pot should have holes for drainage.

2. Preparation of soil: Yushu can withstand barrenness, does not pick the soil quality, provides loose, fertile, well-drained sandy loam soil, can be mixed with garden soil, humus soil, river sand and organic fertilizer.

3. Timely pruning: potted jade trees require aesthetics, so they should also be pruned in time, cut off dry branches and leaves, sick branches and leaves, and properly thin the branches and leaves that grow too densely.

4. Reasonable watering: Yushu is very drought-tolerant, and it should be watered in time to keep it moist during the growing season, and it must not be caused by water accumulation to cause the potting soil to be too wet. In summer, you can water a little more, and in winter, you need to control the amount of watering.

5. Timely topdressing: In addition to the bottom fertilizer in the previous potting soil, timely topdressing is also required in the later growth, and regular topdressing in the vigorous growth stage.

6. Regular repotting: The growth rate of the jade tree is fast, and with the continuous growth, the potting soil must be changed every spring.

1. Requirements for potting pots. Clay pots, plastic pots, porcelain pots, and clay pots can be used. In order to harmonize with the home décor, it can be cultivated in porcelain pots. Pot size: Jade trees are generally planted in pots with a diameter of 16-28 cm.

2. Yushu is not cold-tolerant and requires a dry and well-ventilated environment. The soil requirements are not strict, and it is advisable to use loose and well-drained sandy soil. The potting soil is prepared with 5 parts of humus, 2 parts of garden soil and 3 parts of river sand.

Extremely drought tolerant, avoid overly wet soil. Yushu prefers dry air and dry soil, avoid moist soil, and moist potting soil is easy to cause rhizome rot.

3. Keep the potting soil moderately moist during the growth period. If the potting soil is not well drained and overwatered, it will rot the roots due to stagnant water. The potting soil is too dry, the weather is hot, and the air is not circulating, which is easy to cause leaf fall.

The amount of water should be controlled according to the temperature, and the watering in summer can be appropriate, and at the same time, attention should be paid to indoor ventilation and cooling to promote growth; Watering should be controlled in the winter season, and watering once every 7-10 days can be done.

4. The jade tree grows quickly, in order to maintain the plump shape, the fertilizer can not be too much, and the indoor fertilizer can not be used. Apply nitrogen-based fertilizer 2 to 3 times throughout the year, and the fertilizer concentration can not be large, and it should be carried out in the vigorous growth season.

5. Yushu is more shade-tolerant, and home maintenance can be placed indoors all year round in a place without direct light, or in a place with bright scattered light. Keep at room temperature at 6-10. The temperature is too high to cause growth, leaf shedding or pests and diseases, and the low temperature in winter can promote the differentiation of flower buds, and the plant enters a dormant state below 5 degrees.
