The fortune tree is a home plant that many people like to grow, but if you want to grow it vigorously, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and lush greenery, you need to master the techniques. How to grow the Fortune Tree to make it more vigorous? Let’s learn more about it below. 1. Loosen the soil To grow the fortune tree, you need loose, breathable, nutrient-rich, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. It grows well and vigorously in suitable soil. When preparing the soil for the lucky tree, you can mix it with leaf mold, river sand, and base fertilizer. As it grows, you need to replace the soil regularly to avoid soil compaction and nutrient loss. 2. Lighting conditions Maintain sufficient diffuse light. The rich tree potted plant is relatively shade-tolerant, but it cannot lack light for a long time, otherwise the plant will easily become malnourished. However, it is also necessary to avoid direct sunlight in summer to avoid burning the leaves. 3. Suitable temperature When growing the Chinese rich tree, you need to avoid long-term high temperatures. This is a relatively cold-resistant tree species that can survive the winter outdoors in an environment of -33℃, but it is not resistant to high temperatures. High temperatures can easily cause plant diseases and insect pests. 4. Sufficient water In order for the fortune tree to grow vigorously, it needs to be given sufficient water during maintenance. Observe the dryness and wetness of the soil, and water the soil regularly to ensure that the soil is slightly moist and meets the moisture required for root growth. It is best to water the soil thoroughly each time. Not only do you need to water the roots of the rich tree, you also need to maintain the humidity of the air and spray water on the leaves or around them when it is dry. 5. Reasonable fertilization When repotting the fortune tree, apply base fertilizer. No excessive topdressing is needed during the growth period. During the period of vigorous growth, compound fertilizer can be applied once a month to ensure that the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium elements in the compound fertilizer are balanced and comprehensive. 6. Proper pruning The fortune tree needs to be properly pruned to remove the withered and yellowed branches and leaves, as well as the overly dense branches and leaves, to reduce nutrient consumption and promote vigorous growth in the later stage. 7. Pest and disease control The fortune tree is not a very pest-resistant plant. It is easily infected by powdery mildew, scale insects and other pests if the environment is not suitable. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a ventilated and cool environment to avoid the influence of high temperature and high humidity. This will reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests. At the same time, if the disease occurs, it must be pruned and sprayed in time. That’s it |
