How to raise golden branches and jade leaves to quickly become old piles?
Golden leaf is a very common green plant, its leaves are thick, small and delicate, the trunk is reddish brown or purple, and it grows more spicy. Usually there is maintenance at home, and it is also a good material for potted bonsai. The bonsai branches of the golden branches and jade leaves are vigorous and powerful, simple and elegant, and they are all atmospheric and beautiful decorations indoors and outdoors. The golden branches and jade leaves can be cut into live, and a small branch will soon become an old pile, making a beautiful bonsai. How to make it grow faster and become older quickly? There are several aspects to follow
First, the soil should be well configured
No matter what flowers are raised, the soil is the basic condition. Golden branches and jade leaves its root system is more developed, if the pot is too small, easy to be limited by the small soil of the pot, the root system can not be fully stretched, so if you want it to grow fast, try to choose a larger pot or plant it on the ground, the ground planting will grow rapidly.
If the potted golden branches and jade leaves, the soil as far as possible to choose loose and breathable slightly acidic soil, you can use half of the nutrient soil plus half of the granular soil, this light fertilizer type of soil, you can add some dried sheep manure and other organic fertilizer at the bottom, such soil can make it grow rapidly.
Second, the planting environment
Although the golden branch jade leaf grows particularly solidly, it is afraid of cold and heat, and the temperature exceeds thirty-two or three degrees to enter a semi-dormant stagnant growth state, and the temperature is lower than 10 degrees to enter a hibernating state. Therefore, if you want it to grow too fast in its suitable growth range, you can let it grow to the peak state, the best growth temperature is 15 degrees to 25 degrees, that is, in the spring and autumn and early summer is its peak growing season.
Third, fertilize
In its peak season, if you want it to accelerate its growth, fertilization is not lacking, water twice a month with multi-element fertilizer or nitrogen and potassium fertilizer, so that it can quickly grow roots. If it is a ground-planted golden branch jade leaf, you can bury a little organic fertilizer or farm manure next to it every month, so that its root system can grow unrestrained, and it can achieve a state of rapid and spicy growth. And increase the supply of water, the potting soil is dried to about half of the timely watering and ventilation, basically in less than a year, a small branch can grow into a thick old pile.
Fourth, illumination
If you want to make the leaves of the golden branches and jade leaves grow compact and beautiful, light is indispensable, it is a plant that is more contradictory to the light, and it cannot be all such maintenance or excessive shade. The light is too strong, the branches are not long, the light is too weak, the branches are long, and the time for lignification to form is too long, and it cannot be quickly aged to do bonsai. You can use the shading method of half shade and half sun, pay attention to avoid strong light shading cover in summer, and can be fully sunburned in winter. This allows it to have a process of leaf growth, and it can also make its branches aging and old piles, forming a feeling of vicissitudes.
Fifth, pruning
In the process of growth, the golden branches and jade leaves will continue to branch on the meristic side, such as stuffy branches, adventitious buds, etc., which will not only destroy the plant type, but also consume a lot of nutrients, need to often repair and prune it, and manual intervention to let it grow towards its preferred plant type. The pruning of branches is mainly to reduce the consumption of nutrients, concentrate nutrients on the required branches, and expose the main trunk to light to increase the degree of aging.
In the daily maintenance, if you want to make its branches thicker, you can make the trunk have space up and down by picking and pruning, and the branches can be thickened to accelerate the wooding, and the branches can be shaped by bundling.
