Potted Spathiphyllum requires loose soil, good drainage and aeration, and the sticky soil can not be used. Generally, sapropel + peat soil + a small amount of perlite are used for basin replacement. In addition, when a small amount of organic fertilizer is added to the soil as the base fertilizer, the growth of Spathiphyllum is better.
Humidity includes environmental humidity and soil humidity. During the growing period of Spathiphyllum, keep the pot soil dry, but do not water too much, keep the pot soil dry but not dry, damp but not wet, otherwise it is easy to rot.
White palm is a heat-resistant plant, the temperature will grow well. It can grow and bloom normally in high temperature period in summer, and the flowering period is from May to August. In winter, the lowest temperature of leaf tip should be controlled at 14-16 ℃ and above 25 ℃ in the daytime.
Light is very important for the growth of Spathiphyllums, especially in winter and early spring, full light maintenance can promote the growth of Spathiphyllums, but with the increase of temperature, the light is getting stronger, so it is necessary to shade in time.
The maintenance of Spathiphyllum is nothing more than watering, fertilizing, basking in the sun. Sunshine may not be controlled by people, but at least watering and fertilizing are in your hands.
White palms grow rapidly and need a large amount of fertilizer. They can be applied once a month with mature liquid fertilizer. If xiuanze's solid fertilizer, please remember to water it once the next day. In the selection of fertilizer, concentrated fertilizer and raw fertilizer are forbidden.
In the process of fertilization, loosen the soil to promote the absorption of fertilizer, which is conducive to the growth of palms. In addition, pay attention to fertilization, do not sprinkle fertilizer on the leaves, so as not to sit on the leaves.
In summer and winter, the growth of Spathiphyllums is slow, and fertilization is stopped at this time.
The amount of watering varies slightly in different seasons. In summer or dry season, water is often sprayed on leaves and ground to increase air humidity and ensure leaves are fresh and tender.
In autumn and winter, water should be reduced properly. It is easy to cause rotten roots in low temperature and humid environment. In order to avoid low temperature and frostbite, pay attention to cold prevention and keep the basin soil slightly wet.
Every 1-2 years, the Spathiphyllums need to change the basin, when changing the basin, prune the root system of the plant. Cutting off the old root and the long root system, removing part of the old soil and replacing it with new soil are conducive to the flowering of Spathiphyllums.
In addition, when changing pots, divide the plants reasonably according to the size of the plants, and change one pot into two pots.
To hydroponically cultivate Spathiphyllums, first you need to have a large container, the size of a medium-sized fish tank, wide caliber, and enough growth space for roots and leaves.
The temperature of water culture Spathiphyllum is generally 10 ~ 30 ℃, the water temperature is about 15 ~ 20 ℃, sometimes it is the same as the room temperature, and it can not be too different.
In hydroponics, Spathiphyllum mainly scatters light, and does not need to be directly exposed to the sun. Especially in summer, avoid long-term sunlight, so as to avoid high water temperature, affecting growth.
Change water once every 7 days in summer and once every 10-15 days in winter. You can add water nutrient solution of shaolaina into water every time you change water.
Hydroponic plants are easy to grow moss on the glass bottle wall, so you should clean the bottle wall every time you change water. For the root also need to deal with, wash the root mucus, cut the old root.
Although the root of hydroponic palms is full of water, the leaves are easy to dry up. To spray leaves with water frequently, foliar fertilizer can be sprayed once a week, which can not only increase the nutrition of leaves, increase the glossiness of leaves, but also resist low temperature in winter.
The reproduction of Spathiphyllums can be seeded and divided, but it is often used in families.
There is no strict requirement for the time of branching. As long as the weather of high temperature and low temperature is avoided, it can be carried out in spring and autumn. Most people are used to plant in the combination of changing pots in March to May every year.
The Spathiphyllum plants growing for more than two years were selected. Before germination in early spring, the plants were taken out of the pot, the soil at the roots was removed, and the old roots at the roots were pruned.
After pruning the plant, divide it into n clusters according to the size of the plant. Each cluster has 3-4 leaves. Pay attention not to damage the root system. The seedlings were put in half shade for a period of time.
In early spring, check the bottom of the plant to see if there are any new buds sprouting. If there are many new buds, it is most suitable to divide the plants.
A larger flowerpot will be used after splitting, which is beneficial to the recovery of root system and the growth will be more robust. After splitting, loosen the soil frequently to ensure that the basin soil is loose. As long as the temperature is appropriate, it can grow well.
