Elderberry cultivation methods and precautions

Elderberry cultivation methods and precautions

1. Potting soil

Elderberry has very low requirements for the soil for cultivation, as long as the soil is not too sticky and has a certain degree of drainage and air permeability. However, you should control the size of the flower pot well and try not to choose a pot that is too large or too small. You should also put a layer of small tiles in the flowerpot to help the soil drain better.

2. Sunlight

Relatively speaking, it likes sunlight, and the plant should be given a long period of sunlight bathing during cultivation. If there is insufficient light, its growth will be affected and it will also prevent it from flowering normally.

3. Water

It is important to provide it with water while it is growing, because it requires a relatively large amount of water during its growth period. It is necessary to water it in time when the soil is slightly dry. During the rainy season, attention must be paid to drainage work. Avoid excess water accumulation in the flowerpot. If the soil in the pot is too moist, it will damage its root system.

4. Fertilization

When the plant is in a period of vigorous growth, it needs to be fertilized appropriately. Nitrogen fertilizer should be used mainly when it is not blooming, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be used after it has bloomed. No matter what fertilizer you use, the concentration cannot be too high, otherwise it will easily burn the roots.

5. Notes

This type of plant has a very strong growth ability, so it needs to be pruned from time to time, mainly to prune away unhealthy branches, such as diseased branches, weak branches, and dead branches.
