It doesn't need a lot of words to know a plant. Simple and rough pictures are the most intuitive. Check if you have Dishui Guanyin? (it's a little guilty to be asked like this!)
From the above picture, we can see the origin of the name. In the morning, dripping Guanyin leaves will drop water. The flower is white and looks like Guanyin, so it is named dripping Guanyin.
Dishui Guanyin has been used to the free environment and has strong adaptability to the soil. Generally, Dishui Guanyin just bought back changes the soil once a year or two. You can choose general garden soil or mixed leaf rot soil. If the soil is relatively thick, you can add some fine sand and neutralize it.
General family or office buy back plant Guanyin, will be placed in a corner of the room, light but not strong. Because dripping Guanyin is a shade loving plant, it can grow well in bright light. If the light is too strong, the leaves will wilt. But the flowering period should ensure sufficient sunshine, otherwise the bud with light green, affect the quality.
Therefore, the dripping Guanyin at home or in the office should guarantee about 3 hours of light every day.
Temperature has a great influence on Dishui Guanyin. The most suitable growth temperature is 20 ~ 25 ℃. If the temperature is lower than 18 ℃, it will enter into dormancy state and stop growing, which means that it should be moved to the room in time in winter to ensure the proper temperature. But if the temperature is higher than 30 ℃ in summer, the growth will be abnormal.
The growth of Dishui Guanyin needs sufficient water, especially in summer. The environment is sultry. Spray water on the leaves at noon every day to increase the air humidity, so that the leaves of Dishui Guanyin will be large and thick. In winter, as long as the indoor temperature is high, it can be watered normally.
When watering, we need to pay attention to ensure sufficient light. Do not water in cloudy days. Only when light and water cooperate with each other, can dripping Guanyin grow well.
Dishui Guanyin is extremely fond of fertilizer. Once there is a lack of fertilizer, the stem of leaves will be shriveled. So fertilize once every two weeks and water properly. The choice of fertilizer is mainly nitrogen fertilizer, assisted by phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. When topdressing, pay attention not to drench the fat water to the edge of the leaves, which is easy to cause the leaves to rot.
Many flower friends hope to ensure that the leaves of dripping Guanyin are large and green through fertilization, which is indeed a good way. A small amount of ferrous sulfate is added to the fertilizer solution during each fertilization.
The water drop of hydroponic culture is equal to that of soil culture in light and temperature, but different in watering and fertilization.
Hydroponics consists of changing water and adding water, changing water once in 7 days in summer, 10-15 days in winter, and adding a certain amount of nutrient solution each time. In addition, when changing water, clean the bottle wall of the hydroponics container to avoid water moss.
The other is to apply fertilizer. The dripping Guanyin of hydroponics generally applies foliar fertilizer. In addition to cleaning leaves with clean water, it is necessary to spray foliar fertilizer once a week. It can not only provide nutrients for the growth of plants, but also increase the glossiness of the leaves. In winter, it can also enhance the cold resistance of plants.
The seeds of Dishui Guanyin are rare, hard to find and grow for a long time. No one will wait patiently and quietly for Dishui Guanyin to grow up. Of course, if you have enough time and can find seeds, you can try. In spring, when the temperature is 25-28 ℃, the seeds will be sown in the flowerpot, covered with plastic film, to ensure a certain humidity, about 1 month will slowly germinate, and well conserve and wait for it to grow up.
The ramets shall be determined according to the display of Dishui Guanyin. In summer and autumn, the stem of Dishui Guanyin will grow new plants. At this time, the whole young plants can be dug out and replanted in the new basin.
Cuttage is one of the most widely used propagation methods, with high survival rate and rapid propagation. Cut 15 cm of robust branches, and insert them into the soft sand. They can take root in a week or so, and grow robust new plants in two months.
We need to remind Huayou that there is white poisonous juice in the stem of dripping Guanyin, and the water dripping from the leaves is also poisonous. If you touch or eat by mistake, you will have adverse reactions, but there is no risk of cancer.
It's cold and can keep warm, but it's hot and cooling is not so easy. Therefore, in summer, the flowerpot should be placed in a ventilated position without direct sunlight. The flowerpot should often spray water on the leaves to increase the air humidity and reduce the temperature. Under the condition of temperature no more than 30 ℃, apply nitrogen fertilizer and water every half month.
Dishui Guanyin is big and small. Many families don't want Dishui Guanyin to grow up because of the restrictions of placing and seeing. A good way is to spray the seedlings of Dishui Guanyin with Paclobutrazol solution. In this way, the plant height is generally no more than 40 cm. Generally, spray it once every half a year, and the effect is good.
Smiling Yan asked in low temperature: in summer, those who don't know Guanyin will wilt. What if they are rotten roots?
Answer: Dishui Guanyin is very easy to rot in summer. It is mainly caused by improper watering. Take the plant out of the basin in time, check the rotten root, throw it away if it is too serious, cut off the eight rotten parts of the slightly rotten root and replant it. (wear gloves during operation)
After planting, put it in a cool and ventilated place, and pay more attention to watering, do not dry or not.
Lost sheep's question: some time ago, neighbors were poisoned by dripping Guanyin, and there was an adverse reaction on their skin. What if this happens?
A: it is recommended to use vinegar, first wash the contact skin with plenty of water, and then apply vinegar. Or boil with ginger and vinegar, take orally or gargle. If the poisoning symptoms are obvious, it is recommended to go to the hospital.
Zhengyang farmer's question: when I bought Dishui Guanyin, I said that there would be water drops in the morning, but after a long time of observation, I didn't find out. Is it true that the water drops in the morning?
A: Yes, but a certain amount of air humidity is needed. When the environmental humidity and soil moisture are sufficient, there will be water drops on the edge of the leaves. After a night of low temperature and no light environment, the air humidity is large enough, and the phenomenon of water spitting in the morning will be very obvious.
