Maintenance of the Fortune Tree PotThe money tree prefers a high temperature and high humidity environment and is not resistant to low temperatures. An adult tree can only tolerate temperatures of 5-6°C. It can overwinter outdoors in southern my country, but must be moved into a greenhouse to protect it from the cold winter in the north. It is suitable for planting in fertile, loose, breathable and water-retaining acidic sandy loam. It cannot be planted in alkaline soil or heavy clay soil. How to cultivate fortune tree in potted plantsThe money tree potted plant is suitable for planting in a ceramic pot and soil with good drainage. It should be repotted every 2 to 3 years to ensure that it has more than 3 to 4 hours of sunlight and a warm environment of 16 to 30 degrees. It should be watered once every 3 to 4 days in summer and fertilized monthly during the growing season. Its branches and leaves should also be pruned in time to maintain a good plant shape, and pest and disease control should be done to keep it vigorous. How to keep a fortune tree in a potFirst of all, the money tree in a small pot is planted through sowing or cuttings, so its root system is not well developed. The soil should be loosened and drained frequently to facilitate the growth of the root system. In the early stages of growth, it is best to place it in a place with weaker light, and then move it to a place with stronger light. Regularly changing its position can enable it to grow better. When fertilizing the money tree, apply thin fertilizer frequently, and do not use too much each time. Try to apply as little fertilizer as possible except during the growing season and when repotting. It is recommended to dig a small hole 3 cm away from the roots and put a few grains of high-efficiency compound fertilizer. This way the fertilizer effect will be released slowly without damaging the roots. How often should I water my fortune tree potted plant?When caring for the money tree in a potted plant, water it in moderation and avoid water accumulation. In spring and autumn, water it every 5 days or so. In summer, when the temperature is higher, water it once in the evening. In winter, water as little as possible and keep the topsoil moist. Pruning and shaping of the fortune tree potted plantThe money tree is usually pruned in spring in April and May. All branches and leaves are cut off, leaving the small buds on the branches and leaves. New leaves will grow after about 30 days. Fertilize once a month before pruning to ensure sufficient nutrients. Precautions for the maintenance of the fortune tree potted plantThe suitable growth temperature of the money tree is between 20-30 degrees. Summer is its vigorous growth period, so it needs timely watering and fertilization to make it grow healthily. The maintenance of the money tree potted plant is simple. You can add loose and fertile garden soil or peat soil, leaf mold, coarse sand, and a small amount of compound fertilizer to mix it into nutrient soil. |
