The golden diamond, also known as the spring carp, is a perennial evergreen leather plant of the genus Xinglin. The stems are extremely short and clumped. The leaves extend from the top of the stem to the square, the leaves are broadly heart-shaped, the whole leaves are pinnately split, leathery, green, smooth and shiny. The petiole is 30 to 80 cm long. The golden diamond plant is short and dense, with a neat plant shape, peculiar leaf shape and thick green all year round. It is one of the excellent indoor potted foliage flowers imported from abroad in recent years, which can be displayed in the hall. It can also be placed in the general home interior, which is very popular among people. Here is a detailed introduction to how to raise the golden diamond:
1. Soil selection for gold drilling
Gold diamonds prefer fertile, loose and well-drained slightly acidic soils. Potted plants can be mixed with humus soil (or peat soil), garden soil and river sand as the cultivation substrate. When the basin is filled or the basin is replaced, some horns are placed on the bottom of the basin. Or oil residue as a base fertilizer. From the beginning of cultivating seedlings, attention should be paid to plastic surgery, and the branches and leaves of the scattered exhibitions should be tied, and the branches and leaves should be long and then loosened. Using the characteristics of the new leaf phototaxis, the flower pot is often rotated.
2. Fertilization method for gold drilling
Potted plants can be cultured with humus or peat soil and a small amount of river sand. Fertilization should not be too much. Generally, 1 or 2 times of thin fertilizer water is applied every month or a long-acting flower fertilizer is applied every 1 month. Too much fertilizer will cause the petiole to be long and soft, bending and drooping, affecting the ornamental effect. Stop fertilizing in winter.
During the growing season, some thin liquid can be applied or long-acting flower fertilizer can be applied every 2 months; too much fertilizer will cause the petiole to be soft, curved and drooping, and reduce the ornamental value. Less fertilization or no fertilization in winter.
3. Watering method for gold diamond farming
The golden diamond should be watered during the growing season, and the leaves should be sprayed with water to keep the air moist. The long-acting flower fertilizer is applied every two months from May to September. Usually apply some thin liquid fertilizer. In the winter, to control the watering, and stop the fertilization and cultivation of small l, in order to prevent the leaves from being scattered, the pillars can be placed on the leaf stalks for shaping, and the leaves are gradually loosened after the leaves are long.
Strong growth in summer requires large air humidity and sufficient water. Always spray water on the leaves to keep the soil moist, but not water. In the winter, the gold diamond is in a dormant state. It should be watered less, so that it should be “wet dry and not wetâ€. If too much water is poured, it will rot, causing slow growth or stop growing, which will cause the leaves to turn yellow. The temperature in winter is gradually decreasing, and the number of watering should be reduced. Although gold diamonds like high temperature and high humidity, they have strong adaptability to the indoor dry environment in the north.
4. Temperature requirements for gold drilling
The golden diamond enjoys a high temperature and high humidity climate, and the optimum growth temperature is 20 to 25 ° C. It is more resistant to cold and can be wintered at around 20 ° C. The wintering temperature is preferably greater than 8 ° C, and the lowest temperature is 5 ° C.
5. Lighting requirements for gold diamond farming
Gold diamonds do not require strict light, and generally grow well except for the extremely weak light environment. It is especially suitable for indoor cultivation; however, it should avoid direct sunlight in summer and autumn to avoid burning the leaves. When the gold drill is used for indoor maintenance, it should be placed in a place with bright scattered light, and the lighting should be uniform, and the pot orientation should be changed regularly to avoid the occurrence of a plant-shaped partial crown.
6. Gold drilling culture modeling method
The golden diamond grows fast, adjusts the water, fertilizer, light and humidity, and can grow 3 to 5 leaves a year. During the growth process, the brackets are respectively drawn according to the length of the petiole. Generally, the petiole is short and the petiole is long, and the petiole is long and can be arranged at any time, that is, the short stem and the short stem, and the long stem and the long handle are connected in series to form a string. More than one horizontal plane depends, each layer is like an umbrella, and the whole is like the crown of the tower. After simply tying the petiole and leaf combination, the ornamental effect can be added to the icing on the cake. Or use the principle of new leaf phototaxis, whenever a new leaf grows, turn the flower pot, let the new leaf palm face the light source, and let the petiole develop toward the center, so as not to grow loosely around, so that a pot is compact. A dazzling gold diamond.
7. Precautions for gold diamond farming
(1) It is advisable to keep the temperature at room temperature above 10 °C in winter, and the minimum temperature should not be lower than 5 °C. Otherwise, the leaves are prone to plaque, yellowing and falling off, and the ornamental value is lowered. When the room temperature is low in winter, watering should be controlled to stop fertilization.
(2) The summer season is a period of vigorous growth of gold diamonds, which requires large air humidity and sufficient water, which is very beneficial to promote growth. The principle of watering at this time is to keep the soil moist and not to accumulate water. Usually, the leaf surface is sprayed with water; the principle of watering in winter is that it is not wet. At this time, the gold diamond is in a dormant period. If too much water is poured, it is easy to rot, causing slow growth or stopping growth.
(3) After the autumn air turns cool, the gold diamond can be placed in a place with bright light and high temperature to control and watering. For example, long-term water wetness and low temperature, the leaves are easy to yellow. Serious rotten roots cause plant death.
(4) Golden diamonds like enough scattered light to avoid summer glare. In the summer and autumn, when the sun is strong, it needs to be properly shaded. If it is kept in the shelter for a long time, you need to get a place with sufficient light on a regular basis. Otherwise, the leaves will not grow well and will be yellow. Gold diamonds are moist, keep the soil moist during the growing season, need to replenish water every day, and often spray on the leaves to clean the leaves and create a good microclimate.
8. Breeding methods for gold diamond farming
Gold diamonds are mainly propagated by cutting. In spring, the strong branches are cut and cut to a length of about 12 to 15 cm. Insert them into pots containing vermiculite or river sand. The depth is 4-6 cm. Water is poured at one time, and water flows out to the bottom hole of the flower pot. Water is sprayed to the leaf surface and its surroundings twice or three times a day to keep the air moist. The ambient temperature is controlled at about 22 ° C, and rooting can be germinated after about 4 weeks.
Gold diamonds can also be propagated by ramets. Generally, they are carried out from May to July. The small plants from the plant base are cut off with a knife, planted in pots with new soil, and attention should be paid to plastic surgery. , tie the leaves of the scattered exhibition, and gradually loosen the leaves after the leaves are long, so as not to spread too much and occupy more space, but also enhance the ornamental value.
