Cultivation methods and precautions of rich grass

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Adult Pachysandra pachysandra can withstand high temperatures. However, its germination temperature should be controlled between 20-25 degrees, so as to ensure that it can develop quickly. It is not recommended to cultivate it in the open field in winter, because frost will freeze its branches and leaves. Although it will not cause the death of the plant, it will also affect the beauty of the plant.

2. Watering: Do not water too much during the seedling stage, and control the water to prevent the plant from growing too tall. During the period of vigorous growth, the soil needs to be kept moist for a long time. Generally, water it every other day. After winter, water should also be controlled.

3. Fertilization: Top dressing is needed once during the bud formation period. Phosphorus fertilizer and calcium fertilizer can be used to promote the development of flower buds. When winter comes, fertilization should be stopped. After winter, liquid fertilizer with relatively low concentration should be used.

4. Light: It likes darkness, so it should be raised in a place where strong light cannot reach, and diffuse light should be used as the main light. If the plant is grown outdoors, it needs shade in the summer.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: It can be reproduced throughout the year. It only takes about five months from sowing to growing into a mature plant. When using the sowing method for reproduction, you need to use soil containing leaf mold, and then sprinkle the seeds into the soil, keep the soil moist, and it will germinate in about two weeks. After two months, the seedlings can be potted.

2. Pruning: When the seedlings of the plant grow to ten centimeters in height, they need to be topped. This is conducive to the branching of the plant and can also promote more flowering. After the flowers fade, the dead flowers and leaves should be cut off in time to avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption. After small new shoots grow from the old roots, you need to cut off the tiny plants that have sprouted.

3. Problem Diagnosis

1. Yellowing of branches and leaves: Yellowing of branches and leaves may be caused by insufficient watering. You need to increase the amount of watering, but control the amount to avoid water accumulation in the potting soil.

2. Drooping branches and leaves: The plant is intolerant to strong light, not that it does not need light. Many people do not provide light to the plants when they grow them. This practice is wrong. The correct way is to give it three or four hours of diffuse light exposure every day.

IV. Other issues

1. Edibility: It cannot be eaten directly, but it can be used as medicine.

1. Other values: It has small white flowers on the top and its leaves will stick to the ground in winter, making it suitable as a forest ground cover.
