1. Maintenance methods1. Soil: It does not have high requirements for soil, as long as fertile and loose sandy soil is sufficient. Just be careful not to use saline-alkali soil. 2. Light: It is suitable for growing in places with soft light, so avoid long-term light exposure and control the daily light amount. If it is placed on the balcony, pay attention to shade. 3. Temperature: It likes warm and humid climate and is very cold-resistant. However, although it is cold-resistant, it will grow very slowly when the temperature is below 19℃. Try to keep it in an environment above 20℃. 4. Flower pot: It likes flower pots with high air permeability and good drainage, so porcelain pots are the best choice for Perilla. Be sure to place some broken tiles on the holes at the bottom of the pot to facilitate air circulation and water seepage. 2. Breeding techniques1. Cultivation: Perilla is usually cultivated using rhizomes and is planted from November to April of the following year. Choose thicker rhizomes, cut them into 5-10 cm lengths, bury them in the soil, and seedlings will emerge in half a month. 2. Summer: It is very afraid of direct sunlight. In summer, be sure to put it in a cool place and keep the soil moist, because it is very afraid of drought. 3. Problem diagnosis and treatment1. Root rot: If drainage is not timely, it will easily get root rot, which will cause great damage to its rhizomes. The treatment method is also very simple. Pay attention to timely drainage and water the roots with 5% lime water. 2. Red spider mites: This is a common pest and disease. Red spider mites will damage its leaves and reproduce very quickly. They need to be controlled in time. Just spray them with three-way miticide. IV. Other issues1. Is it poisonous? Perilla is not poisonous and there is no problem during maintenance, but try not to eat it. 2. Can it be given as a gift: It is fragrant when it blooms and has a certain ornamental value. It is also one of the famous seven autumn herbs and is very meaningful as a gift to others. |
