Growth conditions of petrified cypress

1. Sunlight: If you want to grow petrified cypress, you need to give it plenty of sunlight. Generally, it is best to expose it to the morning sunlight. The morning sunlight is relatively soft and more suitable for the absorption of petrified cypress bonsai, allowing it to carry out photosynthesis.

2. Temperature: The temperature of petrified cypress needs to be controlled during the breeding period. Generally, in winter, it is necessary to ensure that it is kept indoors. It is best to control the temperature above 15 degrees to prevent the petrified cypress from frostbite.

3. Loosening the soil: Petrified cypress also needs to be loosened regularly, because after a long time, the soil will become very compacted. If the soil is too compacted, it will be detrimental to the root growth and absorption of water and nutrients of petrified cypress. Generally, it is better to loosen the soil once a quarter.

How to grow petrified cypress

Petrified cypress likes an environment with sufficient diffuse light. When caring for it, let it be exposed to more diffuse light so that the leaves will be greener and more beautiful. It is recommended to water it in the morning. Keep the soil slightly moist during the growing season, and do not allow water to accumulate. Fertilizer should be applied reasonably, and keep it away from the roots to avoid burning the roots. The temperature in winter should be above 15 degrees. In addition, pruning should be done in time to maintain a good plant shape.

Watering of petrified cypress

Petrified cypress consumes more water during its growth period, so it needs to be watered frequently. It is best to water it every morning, directly on the soil surface. It is best not to let the leaves get wet. The amount of water should be controlled well, and there should be no water accumulation. The temperature is too low in winter and the plant grows slowly, so the water should be controlled and not watered unless the soil is dry.

Fertilization of petrified cypress

Although petrified cypress has a certain ability to tolerate barrenness, it still needs reasonable fertilization if it wants to grow vigorously. It is best to loosen the soil before fertilizing, then apply fertilizer and water appropriately so that the plant can absorb it faster. Note that when applying fertilizer, do not apply it too close to the roots, just around the roots to avoid burning the roots.

How to grow petrified cypress at home

Petrified cypress bonsai likes a warm environment. The temperature in spring and autumn is most conducive to its growth. The temperature in summer is too high, so you need to ventilate more and water frequently to cool it down. The temperature in winter is too low, so you must control the temperature in time to ensure that the temperature is above 15 degrees to avoid frostbite.

Precautions for the maintenance of petrified cypress

During the maintenance period of petrified cypress, it is necessary to prune it in time, especially bonsai. If it is ignored for a long time, it will grow very tall and large, reducing its ornamental value. In addition, when yellow leaves or dead leaves are found, they should be cut off in time.
