Miracle fruit potting method

Miracle fruit potting method

Matrix selection

Miracle fruit requires a fertile, loose, air-permeable and well-drained substrate, and the pH value should be between 4.5-5.5. When planting miracle fruit in a pot, it is appropriate to choose mountain mud or garden soil, and then add about 1/3 of peat, compost, sawdust, etc., and at the same time add 5% fermented cake fertilizer and mix evenly.

Basin

The best time to plant miracle fruit is between April and August, after its leaves have aged. The size of the flowerpot is determined by the actual size of the seedlings. The density of placement should be appropriately wider, and the distance between them needs to be adjusted as the plants grow. In addition, it is best to place hay in the gaps between pots to help reduce water evaporation in the pots and prevent weed growth.

Management and maintenance

After potting, apply fertilizer thinly and frequently for a period of time, such as 0.3% compound fertilizer once every 15-20 days. As the plant continues to grow, you can apply a thin layer of cake fertilizer water every half a month and add 0.1% potassium hydrogen phosphate to help promote more flowering and fruiting. When the ambient temperature is lower than 15℃ or higher than 32℃, fertilization should be stopped.
