As a kind of ornamental plant, the banana has beautiful plants, tall and straight flower branches, especially its inflorescence like the tail of a scorpion. But it will be difficult to plant the banana. Let's learn how to cultivate the banana and the precautions.

I. cultivation method of scorpion banana

1. Light. The sunny environment is the ideal environment for the growth of banana. In the sunny environment, the leaves of banana will grow faster, which is also conducive to the development of its flower stem.

2. Moisture. Scorpion banana is a plant that likes humid environment, and because of its large leaves and dense plants, its water evaporation will be faster, so its growth needs high humidity soil and air environment.

3. Soil. The root system of banana is very developed, and it has exuberant clumped leaves. This requires that the planted soil should have good matching properties to avoid hardening. Generally speaking, loose and fertile clayey sand is the best choice.

4. Fertilization. In terms of fertilization, there is no special demand for scorpion banana, but because of its characteristics of more flowers and stems, rapid growth of clustered leaves, the nutrient consumption will be relatively large, so scorpion banana will have a greater demand for fertilizer.

2. Precautions for cultivation of scorpion banana

1. Light. Although scorpion banana likes the environment with sufficient light, but because the summer sun is too hot, so we should pay attention to not be able to expose to strong sunlight at this time. We should pay attention to water management and appropriate shade, so as not to burn the leaves under strong light.

2. Growth environment. In the process of growing, scorpion banana should keep moist soil and air environment, so the soil can be kept moist for a long time by frequent watering, and the air humidity can also be kept by spraying water.

3. Moisture. The cultivation soil of banana requires good air permeability, so we need to pay more attention to prevent water accumulation. Especially in winter, because it is in dormancy period, the growth of banana will be slow, so it only needs to keep the soil moist. Too much watering will easily lead to water accumulation, which will lead to rotten roots.

4. Fertilization. In the period of 20 to 25 days after planting, it is the time for the root system to recover. At this time, fertilization should not be applied, which is not conducive to the recovery and growth of the root system. In serious cases, rotten roots will appear.
