1. Breeding methods

2. Precautions

You must use loose and fertile soil to raise Milan. Generally, peat soil and river sand are used to prepare pot soil. The ratio of the two is 2:1. Sufficient light should be provided at ordinary times. Home planting can be placed in a sunny place to allow it to fully receive light. In daily maintenance, water appropriately to keep the soil moist, but not too wet. During the growth period, a little cake fertilizer should be added, but it needs to be fully diluted.

1. Breeding methods

1. Soil: Milan prefers loose and fertile soil. Rich humus can provide nutrients for the growth of plants, and good drainage can prevent the roots from being flooded. Usually it is prepared with peat soil and river sand, and the ratio is 2:1. If peat soil is not available, you can use garden soil and compost soil instead, two parts each and one part river sand.

2. Light: Milan needs appropriate shade during the seedling stage. , when it grows up, it needs to fully receive light. It is usually planted in a sunny place. If it is domesticated, it can be placed on the balcony, so that it can fully receive light. Insufficient light will cause the plant to grow leggy, which will also affect its flowering. However, avoid exposure to the sun in summer to prevent the leaves from losing water and drying up, which is not conducive to plant development.

3. Watering: Milan is a plant that prefers moisture. During its growth period, water it appropriately to keep the soil moist, but not too wet. If there is any technology in the pot soil, it will affect the breathing of the roots and may cause it to rot. If the climate is relatively dry, you need to spray water appropriately, once every morning and evening to increase the humidity of the environment.

4. Fertilization: The growth of Milan requires certain nutrients. Without proper fertilization, the flowering quality of the plant will be reduced and the flowering period will be shortened. Generally, appropriate top dressing is required during the growth period. The fertilizer is mostly decomposed cake fertilizer or sesame paste residue water. It should be fully diluted before fertilization to avoid fertilizer damage. It is usually applied every 7-10 days, and superphosphate can be supplemented before flowering.

2. Notes

1 . Keep warm in winter: Milan’s cold resistance is not strong, so you must pay attention to heat preservation in winter. You can put it in a warm place indoors, but it must be able to see sunlight and not be too shaded. If the temperature in the house is not high enough, you need to put a plastic bag on the top of the plant to keep it warm.

2. Pest and disease control: Common diseases in Milan include stem rot, anthracnose and sooty disease. Stem rot causes stem rot and needs to be controlled with Bordeaux mixture. Anthracnose will cause the diseased branches and leaves to fall off, so they need to be pruned in time and prevented by using Toxin solution. Sooty disease often occurs together with scale insects and can be controlled with carbendazim. The main pests that threaten it include scale insects, aphids, spider mites, leaf rollers, etc., which usually need to be sprayed with different chemicals.
