1. How to spend the winter safely1. Appropriate temperature control: Podocarpus will enter a dormant period in winter. Therefore, in winter, the temperature should be controlled at around 5℃, which is a suitable temperature for its dormancy. After its second year of dormancy, it will grow better. 2. Increase light: Light can help plants synthesize more nutrients. In winter, let it receive more sunlight, which will help it accumulate nutrients and is also beneficial for its wintering. 3. Appropriate water control: In winter, its water demand will decrease, so you also need to pay attention to water control during breeding. If the soil in which it is planted has not yet dried out, do not water it. This will prevent excess water from accumulating in the soil and causing it to freeze or become waterlogged. 4. Stop fertilizing: Winter is not a suitable season for fertilizing. Because it is in a dormant period at this time, its demand for nutrients is very low, and the nutrients contained in the soil can meet its needs. If you apply fertilizer at this time, it may cause root burn. 2. Can you survive the winter at 10 degrees below zero?Podocarpus has poor cold resistance. When the temperature is below 5℃, its growth rate will slow down and it will slowly enter a dormant state. When the temperature drops below 0℃, problems will arise with its roots and branches and leaves. When the temperature drops to -10℃, it will suffer severe frostbite and may even be frozen to death, so it cannot survive the winter safely. |
