Yew is a common home potted plant with high ornamental value and health benefits. However, for yew to thrive, certain farming skills need to be mastered. This article will detail the six steps of yew home potted plants to help you easily maintain healthy and beautiful potted plants.
1. Choose the right potting.
First of all, choose a basin with good breathability and good drainage. It is recommended to use clay pots or clay pots and avoid plastic pots. According to the size of the yew, choose the appropriate size pot, which is generally 15-20 cm larger than the diameter of the plant.
2. Prepare suitable potting soil.
Yew grows well in loose, breathable, well-drained soils. You can mix humus, garden soil and fine sand according to the ratio of 3:1:1, and then add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer as potting soil. Note that the potting soil should not be too sticky or too fertilized, so as not to affect the growth of plants.
3. Potting and repotting.
Load the prepared potting soil into the potting pot, and then put the yew plants into the pot** to ensure that the root system is naturally stretched. Fill the potting pot with potting soil, gently compact the soil, and water thoroughly. Every 2-3 years, repot yew trees to provide more nutrients and space to grow.
4. Watering and moisturizing.
Yew prefers a moist environment, so keep the potting soil moist. During the growing period, water once a day, in the morning and once in the evening. In summer and dry season, increase the frequency of watering and spray the leaves frequently to maintain air humidity. In winter, watering should be controlled to avoid freezing the plants.
5. Light and temperature.
Yew prefers a warm, semi-shady environment and is suitable for growing at a temperature of 15-25. In summer, avoid direct sunlight and place in a ventilated and cool place. In winter, it should be kept indoors in a warm and sunny place, and the room temperature should be kept above 5. Avoid temperatures that are too high or too low to affect the growth of yew.
6. Fertilization and pruning.
In the growing season, apply well-rotted organic fertilizer to yew every 10-15 days, and pay attention to thin fertilizer and frequent application. In order to maintain the beautiful shape of the plant, it is necessary to prune the withered yellow branches and leaves and long branches in time. When pruning, it is necessary to pay attention to maintaining the beautiful shape of the tree, and it is also conducive to the ventilation and light transmission and growth of the plant.
