Suitable soil: it is best to use soft, breathable, fertile, good drainage potting soil, and the prepared soil needs to be disinfected before it can be used.
Appropriate amount of watering: frequent watering during the growing season ensures that the soil is slightly wet, but it should not accumulate water, and water control in winter.
Suitable temperature: it is best to provide an environment of 25 ° C, not hardy, and the minimum insulation is above 5 ° C.
Sufficient light: Usually placed in the lighting place, it is best to bask in the light of the whole day.
Reasonable fertilization: Apply thin fertilizer frequently during the peak growing season to ensure adequate nutrition.
First, the soil is suitable
When potting and maintaining banana trees, we should pay attention to the substrate used, the soil is preferably soft, breathable, humus-rich, strong drainage ability, and preferably slightly acidic, so that the root system can breathe better in the soil environment, which is more conducive to later growth. When mixing soil, it is best to mix an appropriate amount of humus soil, pine needles, sandy loam soil, etc. in the garden soil, and the prepared nutrient soil needs to be disinfected before use to prevent bacteria and insect eggs.
Second, appropriate amount of watering
Banana trees like to grow in a humid soil environment, but not tolerant of waterlogging, so during breeding to control the number of watering and water, found that the soil dry need to be watered in time, watering through, it is strictly forbidden to accumulate water, otherwise the root system is easy to rot. Generally, the summer temperature is high, the water evaporates quickly, and the amount of water needs to be increased, and the water should be sprayed frequently to ensure a certain humidity. In winter, its growth has basically stopped, and it is necessary to strictly control the water and keep the soil dry as a whole to ensure safe overwintering.
Third, the temperature is suitable
Banana tree belongs to tropical plants, high temperature tolerance, like warm environment, suitable for its growth temperature of about 25 ° C, not hardy, potted maintenance of banana trees generally moved indoors in late autumn, winter is best to control the temperature above 10 ° C, the lowest also to keep warm above 5 ° C, to avoid freezing. Summer temperature is high, we must do a good job of ventilation, indoor maintenance need to often open windows for ventilation, to avoid breeding bacteria.
Fourth, there is enough light
Banana trees are very light-loving, potted maintenance need to put it in a well-lit environment, it is best to accept the whole day of light every day, so that you can better photosynthesis, can accumulate more nutrients, promote vigorous growth. It is recommended to put it on the balcony and bask in the sun, even if it is a strong light in summer, do not worry. If it is often placed in a shaded environment, it is prone to poor growth.
Fifth, reasonable fertilization
The plantain trees maintained by potted plants also need proper topdressing and sufficient nutrition to ensure vigorous growth. Fertilization should be carried out in accordance with the method of thin fertilizer application, it is best to water diluted fertilizer, compound fertilizer or organic fertilizer, so that it can be better absorbed, but also to avoid fertilizer damage.
