Under the sufficient sunlight, the leaves will become plump and plump. The whole leaves are covered with fine fluff. They are plump and fluffy. They are very lovely. It has five petals in white. Now let's get to know the farming methods of Bonia!

How to breed Bonia

Cultivation method of Bonia: the breeding method of succulent plant ponia is also relatively simple. Ponia needs a sunny, cool and dry environment. It is resistant to half shade, afraid of water logging, and is not hot and humid. It has the habit of growing in cold season and dormancy in summer. Bonia is not strict with the soil requirements, peat soil and coarse sand to maintain water permeability.

The growth period of Bonia is from September to June of the next year (the environment of Huayou is different, and the growth period is also long and short). If the light is not enough, the plants are easy to grow too long, and the distance between leaves and leaves will be longer, which makes the plant loose, the stems become fragile, the leaves will also be elongated, and the color will be lighter. Plants grown in sunny places are short and strong, and the arrangement of leaves is relatively compact, and the length of Bonia is not too slow.

Cultivation in Bonia

During the growing period, the soil should be kept slightly wet to avoid ponding. When the basin soil is dry, it can withstand a low temperature of - 2 ℃, which is indoor temperature, not open air. The whole winter basically cut off water, below 5 degrees will start to slowly cut off water. When the temperature exceeds 35 ℃ in summer, the growth of the whole plant basically stops. At this time, the watering should be reduced to prevent the root rot caused by excessive moisture in the basin soil. It is worth noting that in summer, the water is not cut off in the whole season, but only a small amount of water is given. Otherwise, the old leaves are easy to dry up. Water is only supplied at the edge of the basin, about 2-4 times a month, and water is supplied around 7-9 p.m. at this time, the sun has gone down and will not affect the roots of plants Ring.

Ponia in the cultivation to avoid long-term rain, prevent root damage, branches yellow rot. Because of its relatively fast growth, it is almost enough to change the basin once every 1-2 years. In early spring, the basin should be changed before the first watering.

Bonia has branches and can be propagated by decapitation, cutting and rametting. Branch cutting is very simple, take down the healthy old branches and dry them in the slightly moist sandy soil. Cool ventilation more than 20 days will grow roots, cutting is not often water, otherwise it is easy to rot stem, cutting should choose spring and autumn.
