1. Six planting steps of Myrica rubra 1. fertile/rich/fecund soil
When planting Myrica rubra, the soil needs to contain very fertile nutrients, and its roots also need to absorb a lot of oxygen, so the soil for cultivating it should have very good air permeability. Generally speaking, garden soil, humus soil and slag are more suitable.
Step 2 water properly
In the growing period, Myrica rubra needs rich water to nourish it. In order to keep its soil moist at all times, water it often, sprinkle some water on its branches often, and try to keep its growing environment in a relatively humid state. It is not necessary to water it often when the weather is cold, as long as the soil does not crack.
Step 3: Proper lighting
Myrica rubra is a plant that likes sunshine. The growth environment it needs is sufficient light source, but it can't be exposed to direct sunlight, which can easily make its branches and leaves get sunburned. Therefore, it is generally enough to put it in a place with sufficient ventilation and light source, but when the temperature is high and the sun is strong, it is necessary to take protective measures to cover it.
Step 4 trim regularly
The most important thing to pay attention to in the planting method of Myrica rubra is to prune and prune frequently. Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to choose spring as the time period. Pruning its sprawling branches and leaves and some drooping dead branches makes its branches and leaves more balanced and arranged in a tangible way, which is not only conducive to viewing, but also conducive to more flowers because of good ventilation and light transmission.
5. Fertilize regularly
Myrica rubra should be fertilized frequently during the growing period, generally once a month, but it should be avoided in summer, because the temperature is too high in summer, and it is likely to burn its roots after fertilization, and it is not conducive to its one-time absorption of nutrients after dilution. It is more suitable to choose liquid fertilizer or compound fertilizer as fertilizer.
6. Disease control
Myrica rubra is often attacked by chlorosis and sooty blotch. The way to control these two diseases is to dissolve them in ferrous sulfate or thiophanate-methyl wettable powder and spray their branches and leaves frequently. Myrica rubra is also prone to scale insects and aphids, which need to be eliminated with oil emulsion when they occur.
Second, the propagation method of Myrica rubra 1, cutting propagation
The best time for cutting propagation of Myrica rubra is above 20℃. At this time, the temperature is mild and the survival rate of cutting propagation is high. Select branches larger than 10cm and cut them with scissors, then soak the cut branches with carbendazim and rooting agent, and then carry out cutting, and keep the depth within 2cm. Then water it, and it will take root and sprout in almost 20 days.
2, sowing and breeding
The way to sow and propagate Myrica rubra is to keep its seeds growing, that is, to select better seeds first, then soak them in clear water to get sufficient nutrition, and then when sowing, the soil only needs to be kept in a moist and soft state, so as not to pour a lot of water, which will drown the ungerminated seeds. When there are signs of germination, some sunlight can be given appropriately, which is beneficial to their better growth.
Conclusion: Through the above introduction, I believe everyone knows the planting method of Myrica rubra and how to breed it. I hope everyone can raise a basin of beautiful bayberry!
