The best soil for raising sheep's hoof beetle is the sandy soil with fertile soil and strong drainage ability. If it grows in such soil, its natural regeneration ability will be very strong, and it can be propagated by self sowing. In the south of our country, we can cultivate in the open air, but in other areas, we need to cultivate in pot, especially when we need to pay attention to the seedlings, we need to breed them in nutrition bags in time, so that we can greatly improve the survival rate of claw beetles.
Sheep's hoof beetles like warm climate, the best is sunny and a little bit humid environment, it can't bear the extremely low temperature environment, in winter, it's best to put it back into the house for breeding.
Sheep's hoof beetles like wet places. They must be watered frequently when they are raised. They are usually watered once or twice a day. They should be watered thoroughly every time. If it's potted culture, we must make sure that the bottom of the flowerpot has good drainage, no water, otherwise it will lead to root rot, mainly to ensure that the soil is moist enough.
It is necessary to apply fertilizer in the growth period of the sheep's hoof beetle. The liquid fertilizer is the most suitable one, which can be applied once or twice. When it comes to dormancy, its growth will become very slow. At this time, it doesn't need too much fertilizer. It's better not to use any fertilizer. Otherwise, it's easy to cause its roots to be burnt or even the whole plant to be burnt.
The main way of propagation is cutting, followed by grafting, so if you want to grow more and more vigorously, you can choose these two ways to achieve it. The cutting time is in March and April, and the grafting time can be in April and may in spring or August and September in autumn.
The most important thing is to pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. The main diseases are Fusarium wilt. The main pests are coir moth, green laced moth and aphid. The most important way to deal with the diseases and insect pests is to prevent them, find them in time and take the right medicine.
