The cultivation method and precautions of water pinellia

1. Maintenance methods

1. Soil: The water pinellia has low requirements for soil. Generally, moist, water-retaining sandy soil is used for cultivation, which is more conducive to the growth of water pinellia.

2. Water: It has a large demand for water. After planting, water it appropriately to make the soil moist and strong. When watering, you can water it more so that it can retain water and retain moisture.

3. Nutrients: When applying fertilizer, chicken, duck, pig manure and human manure are generally used. Only sufficient nutrient absorption can make the water pinellia grow vigorously and the plant will be stronger.

4. Light: It likes a mild and humid environment and can be grown in full sun. However, it cannot tolerate strong light, as it will cause sunburn to its stems and leaves.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Pruning: After planting water pinellia, it is necessary to weed and prune it properly. The weeds in the soil will absorb the nutrients in the soil. Withered and wilted leaves will affect its growth, and timely pruning can solve these problems.

2. Reproduction: Water pinellia is generally propagated by seedling cultivation. Select strong tubers, dry them in the sun, mix them with fine sand and place them in a ventilated place. When sowing in spring, plant it in soil with sufficient nutrients and control the temperature at around 20 degrees Celsius. Seedlings will grow in about a week.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Sticky insects: The most common insect pests of water pinellia are sticky insects. At this time, you only need to dilute dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane with water, and then spray it on the branches and leaves to get rid of the pests.

2. Yellow leaves: When you see the leaves of water pinellia turn yellow and wilt, it is because it lacks fertilizer. At this time, you need to trim off the yellow leaves, then use organic fertilizer to dissolve in water, and then pour it into the soil. This will be more conducive to the absorption of nutrients.

IV. Other issues

1. Is it toxic? Water pinellia is non-toxic and can be cultivated with confidence. Water pinellia is a monocotyledonous herb with strong adaptability and is easy to cultivate.

2. Whether it can be exposed to rain: Yes, it can be exposed to rain, as it likes moist soil. A large amount of water is required during breeding, and a small amount of water can be stored during watering. Therefore, it is even more popular on rainy days. After being washed by the rain, its stems and leaves will absorb moisture, which can promote the rapid growth of the root stems.
