1. Maintenance methods1. Temperature: It likes a cool environment, specifically between 13 and 20 degrees. It does not like too high temperatures, generally not exceeding twenty-four degrees, which is the extreme high temperature it can tolerate. However, it has a certain degree of cold resistance and can withstand temperatures as low as minus eight degrees Celsius, but try not to let it be too low. 2. Light: It likes light and has relatively high requirements for sunlight. Especially during periods of vigorous growth, a certain amount of sunshine must be guaranteed every day. However, too strong light is not good. It is best to keep it in a semi-shaded environment in summer. 3. Watering: Metasequoia likes moisture and has good resistance to waterlogging. Wild Metasequoia is generally found in humid or waterlogged areas. Therefore, sufficient water should be provided at normal times. Long-term drought is extremely detrimental to its growth. 4. Fertilization: It has strong adaptability to soil and can generally grow in barren areas. But try to choose a place with more nutrients, and you can also apply some fertilizer. 2. Breeding techniques1. Reproduction: You can use the cutting method. Hardwood cuttings can be used. Branches can be collected in January and then planted in March. The length should be between ten and fifteen centimeters, and it is best to soak it in rooting powder before insertion. If this step is followed, new roots will begin to grow in about fifteen to twenty days. 2. Pruning: Proper pruning of branches will help its growth, because there will usually be some messy branches, which seriously affect the light transmittance and ventilation. Concentrated pruning can be carried out before the beginning of spring, and the specific intensity can be between one quarter and one third of the total length of the crown. 3. Problem diagnosis and treatment1. Disease: "Rust" occurs frequently and can spread in large quantities. It can be controlled with oxycarboxin, and auxiliary measures such as pruning should be combined, and excess water should be drained out in time. 2. Pests: There are many types, such as "leafhoppers", "rose armyworms", etc. Different types of pests can be controlled by different types of pesticides. IV. Other issues1. Toxicity: It is non-toxic. Moreover, its purification performance is quite good. 2. Can it be grown at home? Generally speaking, no, because it is a tree and is relatively tall, but it can be planted in the courtyard. |
