Cultivation methods and precautions of Bergenia

Cultivation methods and precautions of Bergenia

1. Maintenance methods

1. Substrate selection: The growing environment of rock cabbage is very special. It generally grows in mountainous areas. It is not very demanding on the soil, but loose and breathable soil is more suitable for its growth.

2. Temperature management: Rock cabbage has weak cold resistance. In autumn and winter, the temperature cannot be lower than 10 degrees Celsius.

3. Water management: It needs a lot of water during the growth period, and should be watered in time after fertilization. In summer, watering is needed once a day to promote root growth.

4. Light management: Rock cabbage is a shade-loving plant, and it is healthier when grown in shade than in the sun. Especially in summer, avoid direct sunlight.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Sowing: The germination rate of seeds is highest in spring. Seedlings sown in spring grow faster and reach the five-leaf stage 10-20 days faster than in summer and autumn. This is due to the stronger vitality of spring seeds. Once the seeds are prepared, just sow them in the soil.

2. Cutting: After processing the rhizomes, cut and plant them in the seedbed. The rhizome cuttings of rock cabbage are easy to survive. The survival rate of cuttings in spring, summer and autumn is an average of 97.2%.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Root rot: Root rot is very likely to occur in thick soil with little oxygen, so during the breeding process, the soil must be kept loose and breathable.

2. Pests: Brown spots and aphids are common hazards, so during the breeding process, careful care should be taken to avoid pests. Aphids can be killed by spraying 1000 times diluted 2.5% dernet espresso emulsion.

IV. Other issues

1. Is it toxic: Rock cabbage is a non-toxic plant and is beneficial to changing the indoor air environment.

2. Can it be grown at home? The leaves of rock cabbage are emerald green and its flowers are beautiful, making it very suitable for home cultivation, and it would be best to make it into a potted plant.
