The requirement of Clivia on soil is strict, and the soil has a great influence on its growth. Specifically speaking, it requires fertility, looseness, plus air permeability, water permeability, etc. nutrition should also be rich and comprehensive.
(1) saprophytic soil: in principle, all leaves of broad-leaved trees are OK. However, the actual test proved that the effect of oak leaves is better
(2) river sand: choose the size of rice grains and washed river sand. It can effectively increase the permeability of the soil, but also can reduce the temperature of the soil.
(3) slag: it is the best fired at high temperature. Corn grain size, also need to clean before using. It can increase the water retention of soil.
(4) horse manure: after fermentation. Generally, it can be used as basic fertilizer.
(5) Larch needle: it can be used alone, but it is generally used together with other materials. It's slightly acidic
Generally, 20% Larch needles, 20% garden soil, 20% compost, 20% cake dregs and 20% river sand will be selected. It's just one way to make it.
(1) leaf cultivation: use half of rotten leaf soil, add 30% Larch needles, add 10% bone meal, slag, etc.
(2) root cultivation: 30% rotten leaf soil, 40% pine needles, 20% river sand and 10% bone meal.
