Pot planting methods of Ginseng fruit involve many aspects, including pot soil selection, seedling pot planting, light and temperature management, fertilizer and water management, and pest control. The following are detailed planting steps and precautions: 1. Selection of potting soil
Requirements: The basin soil should be permeable, well drained, and rich in nutrients to ensure the normal growth of Ginseng fruit.
Preparation: It is recommended to mix decomposed leaf soil, yellow sand (or river sand), and cake fertilizer (or fully decomposed manure) in a certain ratio, such as 6:2:2 or 3:2:1 (garden soil: river sand: decomposed fertilizer), to ensure that the substrate is soft and nutrient rich.
Flower pot selection: The diameter and depth of the flower pot should be above 35cm, and there should be drainage holes at the bottom to ensure that water can be drained normally and avoid water accumulation. 2、 Planting seedlings in potted plants
Seedling selection: select robust, short and beautiful Ginseng fruit seedlings to ensure that the root system is developed and free from diseases and pests.
Pouring: Place tiles or crushed stones at the bottom of the flowerpot to increase drainage, and then fill it with prepared nutrient soil. Plant the seedlings in the center of the pot, straighten them, fill them with nutrient soil around, and gently compact them. Pay attention to stretching the root system and avoid root pits.
Watering: Water the roots thoroughly and leave them in a cool place for 3-5 days to improve survival rate. 3、 Lighting and Temperature Management
Illumination: Ginseng fruit is sunny, but not sun resistant. Normal exposure to sunlight is possible in spring and autumn. In summer, shade is needed to prevent direct sunlight, while in winter, the duration of sunlight should be increased to promote growth and increase temperature.
Temperature: The suitable growth temperature is 20-30 ℃. In summer, if the temperature is too high, it needs to be cooled down (such as shading, ventilation, and water spraying). In winter, it needs to be kept warm and moved indoors for maintenance to ensure that the nighttime temperature is not lower than 10 ℃. 4、 Fertilizer and water management
Watering: During the vigorous growth period, it is necessary to replenish water in a timely manner to keep the soil moist but not too wet. Watering should be done daily during hot summer weather, and water should be controlled appropriately during winter.
Fertilization: Apply fertilizer in a timely manner during the growing season, mainly using organic fertilizers such as decomposed animal manure or plant residues. The application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers needs to be increased during the flowering and fruiting periods. In addition to fertilizing the roots, regular application of foliar fertilizer is also necessary. 5、 Disease and pest control
Prevention: Keep the soil and plants clean and dry to reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases.
Treatment: Once pests and diseases are detected, timely spraying and treatment should be carried out, using a combination of biological and chemical control methods, and paying attention to the use of low toxicity and low residue pesticides. 6、 Other precautions
Changing pots: As the plant grows, it may be necessary to change to a larger pot to meet its growth needs. Generally, change the pot once a year and trim the roots and branches.
Pruning: Regularly prune weak branches, diseased branches, and crossed branches to maintain a beautiful and well ventilated tree shape.
Scaffolding: The stems of Ginseng fruit are relatively soft, so it is necessary to build a scaffold to support the fruit to prevent the fruit from crushing the branches.
Pot planting of Ginseng fruit requires careful management and patient care to achieve fruitful results. Ginseng fruit fruit can thrive in potted environment through reasonable selection of pot soil, light and temperature management, fertilizer and water management, pest control and other measures.
