What are the cultivation methods for the kumquat tree?
The suitable temperature is between 22-28°C. In winter, attention must be paid to keeping it warm, but the temperature must not be too high. It needs acidic soil, and it must also be soft, sandy soil. During the growing period, it is necessary to ensure sufficient water; the soil must not be too dry, and the soil must be kept moist. Use fermented fertilizer, and apply fertilizer once a week.
I. Cultivation Methods
1. Temperature: It relatively prefers a warm environment, and the best temperature is between 22-28°C. In winter, it needs to be kept warm, but the temperature should not be too high either; if it is too high, it cannot enter its dormant period, and this will affect its flowering the following year.
2. Potting soil: When choosing soil, choose acidic soil, and it must also be soft, sandy soil. It can be made by mixing leaf mold and sand.
3. Watering: It relatively likes water. During its growing period, it is necessary to ensure sufficient water; the soil must not be too dry, and it must be kept moist. However, waterlogging problems must not occur either.
4. Fertilizing: It has a relatively large demand for fertilizer and strict requirements as well. Use fermented fertilizer. In summer, special attention must be paid to fertilizing regularly; otherwise, it will affect the flower buds. Apply once a week.
II. Points to Note
Alkaline soil must absolutely not be used; alkaline soil is unfavorable for plant growth.
