Many flower friends don't know much about the cultivation of banyan trees. Unlike many flowers and plants, banyan trees like a warm, sunny, humid and ventilated environment, so the maintenance site should meet these requirements, otherwise it will easily lead to the death of banyan trees. Some flower friends put it on a sunny but airless balcony or indoor, causing a large area of fallen leaves, until it finally becomes a bare trunk.
If the potted banyan tree is not watered for a long time, the plant will wilt because of water shortage. Therefore, the growth of the plant should be observed in time and watered according to the soil. When watering, there is water flowing out from the drain hole at the bottom of the basin until the surface of the soil turns white.
At ordinary times, when the humidity of the environment is low, a small slot can be padded on the lower part of the flowerpot, and a little water can be properly installed, which is conducive to increasing the humidity. We should also spray water regularly, especially in the hot disaster season.
Because the soil of potted banyan is limited and the nutrients to meet the growth of banyan are limited, timely supplement of nutrients can ensure the growth of banyan. In summer and autumn, apply fertilizer and water once a month. In winter, apply less or no fertilizer. In a word, it depends on the growth of the plant.
Banyan trees are very resistant to pruning and grow fast. They can be reshaped in early spring. The branches should be cut properly to enhance the ventilation and light transmittance and reduce the occurrence of diseases and insect pests. According to their own preferences, reshape, enhance the viewing.
The pruning of banyan trees is mostly carried out in dormancy period, when pruning in growth period, white viscous juice will flow out, which is very harmful to the growth of plants. In the early pruning process, the knife must be sharpened to avoid too many wounds.
For any potted plant, the nutrients in the potted soil will be exhausted on that day. Therefore, it is necessary to change the pot every two years. When changing the pot, a small amount of base fertilizer should be added. The best time to change the pot is early spring or late autumn.
