At present, the wild Anoectochilus roxburghii resources have become increasingly endangered. Due to the strict requirements of growth conditions, slow growth, difficult germination of seeds, as well as a large number of people's collection and animal invasion and other reasons, Anoectochilus roxburghii on the market is now artificially planted. Anoectochilus roxburghii is not only a precious Chinese herbal medicine, but also a good indoor plant, can be placed in the living room, study and other places. How about planting Anoectochilus roxburghii? This paper introduces the planting method of Anoectochilus roxburghii.
1. Planting method
The planting of Anoectochilus roxburghii should be shallow rather than deep. After planting, it is best to cover with clean and dry moss, and the spacing between plants and rows is 5 ~ 10cm × 5 ~ 10cm. After planting, root water should be poured immediately to ensure the survival rate. It is suitable to plant in spring from April to may in high altitude mountainous area, which can accelerate the growth and harvest in the same year. In order to avoid the high temperature in summer and the peak period of disease and insect pest spread, the survival rate and yield can be improved.
2. Choose loose and breathable soil
It is better to select the humus soil, which has high nutrient content, loose air permeability and strong fertilizer holding capacity, followed by humus soil, which is slightly inferior to the humus soil. If the soil is not good, you can add some base fertilizer when planting.
3. Keep enough water
Anoectochilus roxburghii likes humid environment. Water is very important for the growth of Anoectochilus roxburghii. It is difficult to survive in dry and water shortage conditions. During the cultivation process, the basin soil should be kept moist. In addition, attention should be paid to the relative humidity of the house. When it is too dry, humidifier can be used to humidify or spray water around the plants. Usually, more water should be sprayed on the leaves. Anoectochilus roxburghii needs water, but not water, so the amount of watering depends on the development of seedlings and the growth environment.
4. Avoid direct sunlight
Anoectochilus roxburghii likes humid and cool environment. If placed in the sun, it should be given some shelter, preferably more than 50%. It can be placed indoors in a humid place, put in the sun for an hour or two every day, but do not direct the sun.
5. Keep the temperature moderate
When it is higher than 35 degrees, the leaves are easy to curl, so it is better to move to a cool place indoors. When the temperature is below zero, some anti freezing measures should be taken.
6. Selection and replacement of basin
Relatively speaking, porcelain pots are more beautiful, but their air permeability and water permeability are poor, which is not conducive to the respiration of plant roots. Ceramic pots are better, not only cheap, but also good at air permeability. If it is a relatively dry area, it is better to choose combined potted plants to increase air humidity. If the plant is too small, it is not suitable to use too large basin. When the plant grows up, it is necessary to replace the inappropriate pot, so as not to affect the growth of the plant.
7. Environmental requirements
Do not directly put on the ground, Anoectochilus planting basin should be set up, which is conducive to increase the ventilation of the bottom of the pot, conducive to drainage. The Anoectochilus roxburghii planting basin should not be close to other plants to avoid the infection of pathogens.
8. Fertilization
After planting Anoectochilus roxburghii, the main type of fertilization should be slow effect organic fertilizer, such as the diluted liquid of soybean cake after fermentation, pig manure, cow manure and other farm manure. If it can be combined with foliar fertilizer, it is better to add a small amount of ferrous sulfate per 100kg fertilizer solution to promote the green and glossy leaves. In the growing season, 0.3% urea and 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution can be sprayed once every half a month for four times. Do not pollute the leaves when fertilizing. If it is polluted, spray water immediately. Most of the harmful factors and diseases and insect pests are caused by high temperature, poor ventilation, exposure to light and unclean cultivation land. Therefore, we should try to overcome these bad factors and remove weeds.
9. Harvesting
After 4-5 months of planting, Anoectochilus roxburghii has a height of more than 10 cm, 5-6 leaves and 1-2g fresh weight. When harvesting, pull up the roots (or cut the stems to leave the roots for regeneration), shake off the soil, and then put them in the sun to explode in the sun or dry them with fire.
