Moreover, because of its name, it carries the meaning of keeping safe and sound, so its current market demand is still relatively large. So how should the Ping'an tree be cultivated? And what precautions are there? Below, the editor will give everyone a brief introduction. Let's take a look together!

1. Soil selection

To plant the Ping'an tree, you must first choose a good planting plot. It should be planted on soil with convenient transportation, shelter from the wind, sufficient sunlight, normal drainage and irrigation, and sufficient fertility. The soil pH should be controlled at around 5.5-6.5. Then the land preparation work should be done well. After land preparation, sufficient decomposed farmyard manure should be applied per mu. Then half a month before sowing, carry out plowing and soil breaking on the soil. Apply slaked lime and an appropriate amount of trichlorfon and other agents for sterilization and insect control, to prevent the seeds from being disturbed by diseases and insect pests after sowing, reducing the germination rate and affecting planting benefits.

2. Timely sowing

Before sowing, we need to carry out germination promotion and disinfection work on the seeds. First, soak the seeds with formalin and other agents for about half an hour, then pour out the liquid medicine and seal the seeds for about 2h. After that, take out the seeds and clean them, then soak the seeds in clean water for a whole day to improve the seed germination rate. Then before sowing, wet the soil and dig furrows for spot sowing. When sowing, the row spacing should be controlled at about 22 cm, and the plant spacing at 6 cm. After sowing, cover with soil, water once again, and then cover the soil with a layer of rice straw for moisture retention. The watering method should mainly be spraying. About one month after sowing, the seeds can germinate.

The topdressing of the Ping'an tree should follow the principle of frequent applications in small amounts. About half a month after planting, topdressing should be applied once, mainly with compound fertilizer. Then when the temperature reaches about 20 degrees, topdressing can be applied once a month. At around 30 degrees, the topdressing frequency should be changed to once every half a month. Then before winter, the amount of fertilization should be controlled well. Every 5 days, some foliar fertilizer can be sprayed, and spraying about 3 times is enough. Within one week after planting, we need to water about twice a day to keep the substrate moist, and then the soil only needs to be kept alternating between dry and wet. In the high-temperature environment of summer, the soil must be watered thoroughly every day. But if there is too much water, such as during the rainy season, drainage work should be done well.

4. Precautions

During its growth process, the Ping'an tree has a very large demand for light. Only with sufficient light can the Ping'an tree be guaranteed to grow better. Therefore, when planting, we must pay attention to providing sufficient light for the Ping'an tree. However, in summer, direct sunlight should be avoided, otherwise it will burn the leaves of the Ping'an tree. Then attention should be paid to doing the pruning work of the Ping'an tree well, generally carried out in spring and autumn. These two seasons are in the growth period of the Ping'an tree, and pruning can promote the sprouting of new branches.

The above is a brief introduction to the cultivation methods and precautions for the Ping'an tree. Cultivating the Ping'an tree is actually not difficult. The main thing is to do the management work well and pay more attention to some precautions. That is all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only, and I hope it can help everyone!
