Yushu is a common green potted plant . Many people like to keep it at home. Its reproductive power is very strong. Even if it is just a leaf picked, it can be cut into new seedlings. So this also leads to its overflow. You can survive if you lose a leaf, and one can reproduce dozens of pots. Therefore, the Yushu seedlings are simply free to be picked up for free and are not worth anything at all.
Yushu's leaves are thick, and in many places it is called "shameless". In fact, this also indirectly reflects that this plant is relatively easy to feed, but its life span is very long. If it is raised for decades, it can be cultivated into a "old bonsai" in Yushu, which is particularly valuable.
Many people even raised the jade tree for decades and finally grew into a mighty old stake. The jade tree that grows into old stakes grows very domineering, and its branches will become vigorous and simple, very beautiful, not to mention that it can bloom a large number of flowers. Such a plant is simply too beautiful with a beautiful flower pot. Therefore, Yushu is also a rare plant for making bonsai. Speaking of this, are you already moved? So how should we cultivate Yushu into an old stump?
Yushu old stakes on the market are very popular. Especially for those who prefer bonsai plants, they even consult and purchase through various channels. The branches of some old Yushu stakes are even thicker than their waists, and the overall shape of the tree is very graceful and elegant. However, the flower pots used for such thick old piles are not very large and are very suitable for placing indoors. Such bonsai plants can be called the best.
If we want to cultivate Yushu into an old stump, it is actually very simple. As long as we take care of it according to its growth habits, that's fine. Although many people can raise the branches of Yushu very thick when maintaining Yushu, the overall plant looks very messy, which not only does not look beautiful, but also does not grow fast. After raising it for several years, I haven't developed a good-looking shape. In fact, if you want to quickly cultivate a beautiful old Yushu tree, some places are still very particular.
1. The soil for growing jade trees should be breathable
This plant is native to tropical desert areas, so sandy soil should be used when planting. At the same time, it prefers warm and dry places because it is the origin. Although ordinary pastoral soil can also be cultivated into old stakes. But if we choose the right soil, it will undoubtedly achieve twice the result with half the effort. In addition, pastoral soil will be prone to plate jointing problems, and the breathability is not as good as sandy soil, which can easily lead to water accumulation at the roots.
2, control the moisture
This plant is very drought-tolerant. Its leaves are thick and can store a lot of water itself. It has many branches and leaves, which can perform photosynthesis well. So even if it is very little watered and fertilized, it can grow very well. Its root system is not very developed, so it can also be maintained with small flower pots.
In the maintenance process, it is best to control the moisture and wait until the soil in the pot is dry before watering. But during the planting process, we should closely observe the humidity of the pot soil. If the pot soil is too dry, it will consume its own water and nutrients to maintain growth, and in this way, its growth rate will begin to slow down.
3, supplement nutrient
Although Yushu does not have a large demand for fertilizer, if it grows faster, fertilizer is also indispensable. If the Yushu lacks nutrients, its growth rate will slow down and its leaves will become smaller. In this case, it is difficult to develop old stubs, so we must give it regular nutrients. It is enough to supplement fertilizer once a month, either organic fertilizer or compound fertilizer.
If it is placed in the yard for maintenance, it has better ventilation and is not worried about the odor, you can also use sheep manure or chicken manure as fertilizer.
4. It requires sufficient sunlight to raise jade trees
The branches and leaves of jade trees are dense and can promote growth to a great extent through photosynthesis, so it must be given sufficient light during the maintenance process. If there is too little light, the branches it grows will become thin and long, the leaves will become undynamic, and it will easily be folded and bent for a long time. In this way, its ornamentality will also be affected and it will be difficult to grow into old piles. So except in summer, we should try to place it in a place with better sunshine.
5, how to prune Yushu
0 Whether the Yushu we maintain can grow into beautiful old piles is also a very critical step. If its branches grow too messy, it will consume a lot of nutrients, and in this way, its trunk growth will slow down. If you want it to grow into a thick, magnificent and beautiful old pile, you must trim it in time. When pruning, you don’t have to worry too much about the branches. You can prune according to your preferences to keep the overall round and compact plant, so that nutrients can be concentrated in key places. In this way, the branches of the jade tree can always be straight and not bend.
There are flower friends who can cultivate the jade tree into a large old pile for 30 years in a washbasin. A small flower pot can support such a huge body. It has to be said that the jade tree is really easy to raise. All it takes is our patience and experience of time. The jade tree that cultivates the big old pile has thick branches, the jade tree is in the wind, vigorous and simple, which means auspiciousness, and is also very worthy of collection.
