Seabuckthorn has a strong adaptability and does not have high requirements for soil. It can grow as long as the soil is not too salinized.However, for better plant development, it is generally necessary to use loose and fertile sandy loam.If you make your own, you can add a proper amount of river sand to the rotten leaf soil, which not only has certain nutrients, but also is very loose and breathable, which is very helpful for root breathing.
Hippophae rhamnoides is a light-loving plant, its growth can not be separated from adequate light.Generally, the daily illumination time can not be less than 4 hours, the longer the illumination time, the more helpful for flower bud differentiation.And long-term exposure to light can also make it better photosynthetic, so that it can accumulate more nutrients.It should be noted that strong light exposure will make the leaves yellow and withered, so proper shade is needed in summer.
Seabuckthorn itself has a good drought tolerance, even in a relatively dry environment can grow.However, in its growth period, it needs to be watered properly, every three to four days, so as to ensure adequate water.In summer, with the increase of temperature, the speed of water loss will be accelerated, so we need to water every day, and also need to spray water properly to moisturize.In winter, when the temperature drops, watering should be reduced.
Seabuckthorn can grow in very poor areas, and its demand for fertilizer is not very high.Usually, when planting, it is necessary to apply enough fertilizer so that there is no need for topdressing during the growing period.The base fertilizer is mostly decomposed organic fertilizer, which can provide nutrients continuously.
