The cultivation methods and precautions of Buddhist beads

1. Maintenance methods

1. Flower pot selection: The flower pot for growing Buddhist beads does not need to be too large, but it must have good air permeability. You can choose a clay pot, a tile pot, or a porcelain pot with holes in the bottom.

2. Substrate selection: When growing Buddhist beads, you need to choose soil with strong air permeability. The soil can be prepared by mixing leaf mold and coarse sand in a ratio of 1:3. When potting, you can put a layer of coal slag on the bottom to increase the air permeability of the soil.

3. Water management: The leaves of the Buddha beads are thick and juicy and have strong drought resistance. Water again after the soil is dry, about once a week. The weather is hot and dry in summer, and the roots are prone to rot. It is not suitable for frequent watering. You can use a spray bottle to spray water on the leaves or vines.

4. Nutrient management: When fertilizing Buddha beads, you must adhere to the principle of applying thin fertilizers frequently. During the peak growth period, apply thin liquid fertilizer mainly composed of nitrogen fertilizer approximately once every 15 days. At the same time, in order to make the leaves of the Buddhist beads bright in color, you can also spray a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer and potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Pruning: The new branches that grow out of it need to be pruned frequently. In order to make the Buddha beads grow out of the pot, you can use scissors to trim along the inside of the pot when pruning. After such pruning, the whole pot of Buddhist beads becomes more beautiful.

2. Cuttings: The soil for cuttings should be moist and breathable. Cut the healthy branches directly, place them in a cool and ventilated place for 1-3 days, and then insert them into the soil. They will basically survive in a ventilated place for about 20 days.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Mites: Buddhist beads are more likely to be infested with mites in summer, which can be killed with 1000 times the concentration of dicofol. In addition, you can maintain ventilation and increase leaf humidity to prevent diseases and pests.

2. Root rot: It is relatively drought-resistant. Frequent watering will inhibit the respiration of the roots. The amount of water should be controlled when watering. If the root rot problem has not been improved, you can consider changing the pot to a more breathable soil.

IV. Other issues

1. Can it be cultivated at home: Buddha beads are drought-resistant, green and lush all year round, very ornamental, and the maintenance process is simple and easy to operate. Basically, diseases and insect pests are rarely encountered, so it is more suitable for cultivation at home.

2. Whether it can be exposed to rain: Summer is the dormant season for Buddhist beads. At this time, its growth is relatively slow. In addition, rainwater may contain impurities, so try to avoid it from being exposed to rain. If the plant is accidentally exposed to rain, ventilation should be increased to prevent root and leaf rot.
