Soil: Honeysuckle does not have high requirements for soil. It can be maintained with sand river soil, pastoral soil, leaf humus soil and other soils; watering: it needs to grow in a slightly humid soil environment. Watering once or twice a week is enough. Fertilizer: Apply thin fertilizer to it. Before each fertilization, the fertilizer needs to be diluted before use. During the growth period, fertilize once every half month. Light: It can receive full-day sunlight.

1. Maintenance methods

1. Soil: It is suitable for growing in any soil quality. It has only one requirement for the soil, which is that the soil must have good drainage. If you use relatively clay soil to grow it, you can add ceramsite to the soil to increase drainage.

2. Watering: For plants maintained in the open field, as long as it is not a drought, watering is generally not required. If the plant is in a drought state for a long time, it is best to replenish it with water once a week. If it is a potted plant, it needs to be watered every two to three days. The amount of watering each time should not be too much, just water until the soil surface is moist.

3. Fertilization: Except during the growth period, there is no need to fertilize at other times. During the growth period, nutrients are consumed quickly, so it needs to be top-dressed to increase nutrients. The frequency of fertilization is twice a month. When fertilizing, choose a suitable fertilizer with rich ingredients. After fertilizing, you need to water it immediately. , one is to avoid fertilizer damage; the other is to allow the fertilizer to blend with the soil for easy absorption by the plants.

4. Light: Its growth is inseparable from light. The lighting time is at least five hours a day. If possible, it is best to receive full-day sunshine. The plants need to be repotted every time they are maintained for a period of time to prevent the sunny side from growing too much.

2. Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: It can be reproduced by sowing. After the fruits mature in October, peel them, dry them and store them. The sowing time is in March. Take out the seeds and soak them in warm water for half a day before sowing. When the seedlings grow to ten centimeters high, you can spray them with Bordeaux liquid to prevent blight.

2. Pruning: When pruning, keep some branches appropriately to increase yield. In order to make the branches evenly distributed, you can cut off excess branches in spring, cut from the inside out to separate the layers, which can also increase the yield.

3. Problem diagnosis

1. Pest pests: Aphids are pests that plants are more susceptible to. Aphids can damage young leaves, causing them to curl and stop growing. Once a plant is found to be infected with aphids, aphids can be used to eliminate them.

2. Disease: Brown spot disease is common on plant leaves, which will weaken the growth of the plant. August and September are the peak periods of the disease because it rains more and is more humid at this time. After the disease occurs, cut off the diseased leaves, and then spray the plants with thiophanate for treatment.

IV. Other issues

1. Edible: It is edible. In addition to being eaten, it can also be used as medicine.

2. Toxicity: non-toxic.
