1. Selection of substrate: palm needs good drainage, moist and fertile soil, which can withstand alkali, drought and water. It will grow well in acid or slightly alkaline soil.
2. Temperature management: palm likes a warm and humid climate, and the normal breeding temperature can be 22-30 ℃. If it is lower than 15 ℃, it will go into dormancy state, and if it is higher than 35 ℃, it is not conducive to growth.
3. Water management: like humid environment, but not too much water, no water accumulation, otherwise it will rot. Generally watering once a week, high temperature in summer, can increase the number of watering, slow growth in winter, watering every 10 days or so.
4. Light management: it likes sunshine very much, but it also needs to avoid the hot sun. It can be raised in the half shade.
1. Pruning: in order to reduce transpiration and improve survival rate, the leaves should be cut, leaving 3-5 leaves and 1-2 heart leaves. However, it will take a long time to restore it to its full crown. It will take 2-3 years
2. Basin change: basin change should be carried out every 2-3 years, which can be carried out in spring. When changing the basin, some organic fertilizer should be applied to the soil as the base fertilizer, and the newly filled soil should be compacted. And to water a permeable basin in a cool place, a week later transferred to a sunny place for maintenance.
1. Rotten root: after finding that its root system is rotten, we should pay attention to water control, and carry out careful root repair. The root system should also be properly disinfected, and the soil should be replaced, so that replanting will avoid rotting the root again
2. Coconut leaf beetle: for the palm plants seriously infected with insects, the method of pulling out the plants should be used for treatment, and the chemical control method based on coconut leaf beetle powder hanging bag method should be used for treatment.
1. Whether it can be raised at home: it can be planted at home, but it must meet the temperature, soil, water, light and other adaptability conditions suitable for palm
2. Can it be planted: because it is native to the tropical rainforest area, it can be planted in the indoor greenhouse, and outdoor conditions are not very suitable for palm needs, so it is not easy to survive.
