How to grow Aglaia odorata? Detailed growing methods and precautions
Aglaia odorata is a flower with cultivation value; whether for purifying air or as an ornamental plant, it is a good choice and has a good market. So how should this kind of flower be planted? What should be noted?
1. Soil selection for the flower shed
First of all, of course, you need to choose high-quality soil for Aglaia odorata, so that it can be provided with a good growing environment. Decomposed soil or compost soil is a relatively ideal choice. If flower growers do not have large quantities of this kind of soil, they can choose to make it themselves by mixing rotted plants or fertilizer with soil for fermentation. The soil depth in each flower pot should be controlled at 10-15 cm, and the distance between each flower pot should be about 10 cm. In this way, the initial soil problem is basically solved.
2. Temperature control in the flower shed
Like many plants, Aglaia odorata is relatively afraid of low temperatures. Generally, when the temperature is below 5°C, Aglaia odorata will stop developing and may even be damaged. If the temperature is 25°C-30°C, its growth rate will be very fast. At such temperatures, its root system is very vigorous, and the speed of absorbing nutrients is basically at its peak. Therefore, the entire flower shed is best kept sealed to make it convenient to control its overall growing temperature and let it grow more luxuriantly.
3. Water control for flower pots
Water occupies an important proportion in the growth process of Aglaia odorata, so water control must be relatively meticulous. In winter, it is recommended that flower growers use drip irrigation for watering. In other seasons, it is recommended to use a combination of spraying and drip irrigation for watering, which can effectively maintain the moisture in the flower shed. In winter, control watering to about 2 times a month. In other seasons, control it to about 3 times a month. It is enough to keep most of the soil around the Aglaia odorata in the flower shed moist, and a small part can be supplemented with additional watering.
4. Fertilizer control for growth
Fertilizer is the lifeline of Aglaia odorata, but the fertilizer demand of Aglaia odorata is relatively not very high. In order to maintain its nutritional needs in all aspects, it is recommended that flower growers apply organic manure. First, the cost is relatively low; second, the nutrients are sufficient. The fertilization time can be controlled to once a month, evenly sprinkled in the flower pot, not piled up at the roots, and then covered and buried with soil. If the growth is relatively good, pay attention to controlling the fertilizer concentration, which can be diluted by watering.
Overall, Aglaia odorata is still relatively easy to grow, and flower growers just need to pay more attention when cultivating it. For some with poor growth, give them extra attention, and they can basically grow well. Before selling, trim them a little, and they can basically fetch a good price.
