Cactus like dry environment, how to transplant cactus smoothly?

With the development of the Internet, we all have to work on computers and other electrical appliances. As we all know, cactus has a long life and is easy to grow. More importantly, cactus has a certain role in radiation protection, so it has become a plant that many office workers like to plant. Cactus likes dry or not. How can we transplant cactus smoothly Get up and have a look.

We often see in TV plays, many office workers or white-collar computers are always placed next to a small pot of cactus, this is because cactus has the role of radiation protection, so we must protect our healthy partners, learn how to successfully transplant immortal cactus.

Cactus are mostly shallow root plants, some of which have long root tubers should use a deeper basin. Otherwise, shallow and wide mouth basins should not be too large. The one larger than the original basin should be selected. Only when the size of the basin and cactus is not in harmony or the root has grown out of the basin, it is necessary to replace the large basin. When changing the soil, it is appropriate to use loose, breathable and fertile sandy loam Clayey soil.

When changing soil and basin, part of the old soil should be removed and new soil should be added. When half of the soil is filled, the basin body should be patted a few times to reduce the space between the soil and the basin. When the soil is filled with water, it should be pressed a little by hand, and then it can be maintained normally after pouring water. If the root will be broken or damaged when changing the pot, do not water it for the time being. It is not too late to pour again after 3-5 days. If there is no damage to the root system at that time, just replace a larger basin; fill with culture soil, you can water in time, which is conducive to the root "taking basin". But try not to fertilize for the time being, only use water.

Cactus full of thorns, can be wrapped with towel, cloth or newspaper, so as not to be stabbed; pull as close as possible to the bottom of the cactus, if the thorn is broken, it will not be too obvious.

If the original planting soil is sand and gravel soil, the sand and stone will fall automatically when it is pulled up. If the mud has more ingredients, it may be necessary to tap the basin body to remove the basin successfully. Detailed methods: ~ first stop the water until the soil is completely dry ~ carefully shake off most of the soil, and then carefully remove the soil left on the root by hand ~ dry the root with tissue paper ~ place it in a ventilated place but can not be exposed to sunlight ~ only leave the thick root - if the thick root has reached the bottom of the pot, leave the thick root about half the depth of the pot, and then cut off the rest~ After cutting, the wound should be placed in a ventilated place, and the wound should be dried in the shade. After the wound is dried, it should be placed at the scattered light place to recover slowly. The treatment of succulent plants is slightly different for cactus. Cutting propagation of cactus can be carried out all the year round, but cutting from May to June is the most suitable.

Cactus is resistant to drought, barren and water. Therefore, the soil must be well ventilated and well drained. However, the soil for protecting the seed plant is slightly moist, and it is not easy to take root if it is too dry. It can be made up of 4 parts of coarse river sand, 3 parts of loam, vermiculite and perlite.

First of all, it is necessary to make sure that the mother plant is free from disease and insect pests. The cutter should be free from rust, disinfected with alcohol, and healthy and mature progenies should be selected from healthy mother plants for cuttings. Before and after each cutting, the knife should be repeatedly wiped and disinfected.

The cuttings should not be cut immediately. They should be placed in a dry indoor place for 5-7 days. The cuttings should not be cut until the cut is dry and the stem begins to shrink. ~If the base of cuttings is shallow buried in the soil, if it is too deep, it will rot; if it is too shallow, it will not be easy to stand firmly (because the stem meat begins to shrink), the sand soil can be pulled up slightly to fix the position of cuttings.

The soil should be kept moist, but not directly on the cuttings. In order to reduce water evaporation, plastic bags can be used to cover the basin. The cuttings can take root in about a month. At this time, the plastic bag should be removed immediately. In addition, before rooting, it needs to be protected from sunlight exposure, and should be placed in half shade for maintenance. After rooting, water and light can also be maintained according to normal methods.

  • Put on the plastic net first.
  • Add the volcanic stone to about one third of the height of the cup.
  • Put in a little more fertilizer.
  • Put in the cactus mud.
  • It's portable.

Through the above introduction, I believe that we all know how to transplant cactus, because cactus can not have too much water, so we need to add a small amount of water after planting, cactus can prevent radiation, skin care and eyesight, so if you often face the computer, you might as well put a small pot of cactus beside the computer.
