Cultivation methods and precautions of star wood

1. Maintenance methods

1. Soil: Star tree is quite picky about the soil. It is best to have fertile soil with good permeability and rich in nutrients. When preparing it, you can mix sandy loam and leaf mold thoroughly.

2. Water: The star tree has a relatively strong drought resistance. When watering, you should pay attention to wait until the soil surface is completely dry before watering. Just water it thoroughly. However, water cannot accumulate, as this may cause root rot.

3. Sunlight: It has strong shade tolerance and grows better in diffuse light or semi-shaded environment. Remember not to expose it to sunlight for a long time. However, it cannot be kept in a location with poor light, otherwise it will grow slowly.

4. Temperature: It grows better in an environment of 20-30℃ and prefers a higher temperature growth ring. Similarly, its resistance to low temperatures is relatively poor. In winter, it is best to maintain a maintenance temperature above 13°C.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Pinching: During its vigorous growth period, if the side branches of the plant grow sparsely, you can promote the growth of its side branches by pinching them. It can achieve better plant growth and improve the ornamental value.

2. Pruning: Appropriate pruning can be carried out during the growth process. If diseased or dead branches appear, they need to be cut off in time. To avoid infection of other branches and loss of nutrients, you can also perform appropriate pruning and shaping to maintain perfect plant rows.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Pests and diseases: There are relatively few pests and diseases in the cultivation of star wood, but anthrax is prone to occur in an environment of high temperature, humidity and poor ventilation. When discovered, it is necessary to spray it with carbendazim solution in time.

2. Dry leaves: When growing, try to avoid prolonged exposure to the sun. If the leaves dry up, in most cases it is caused by excessive light. Move them to a semi-shaded position in time to allow them to recover slowly.

IV. Other issues

1. Can it be grown indoors? Starwood can be grown indoors, but when growing it indoors, you must pay attention to frequent ventilation to avoid the breeding of bacteria and pests in a closed environment.

2. Overwintering: It is best to move it indoors during the winter. It has poor cold resistance and can safely survive the winter as long as the indoor temperature is above 13℃.
