The five-needle pine bonsai is liked by many flower lovers. It can not only be viewed at home, but also can beautify the environment to a certain extent. The five-needle pine bonsai is also a relatively common species in bonsai, but do you know that the five-needle pine bonsai has "three fears and four needs" in breeding?
The "three fears" are: one is afraid of getting fat. The requirement of five-needle pine for fertilizer is to apply thin fertilizer and less fertilizer, and only apply thin liquid fertilizer once a year from August to October. If the spring grows vigorously, apply a little less and do not fertilize at ordinary times. Beginners who grow pine often think it grows slowly and want to fertilize it to make it grow faster. The result is counterproductive. Second, be afraid of water in the basin. If you water too much, the air circulation in the pot will be blocked, causing the roots to rot and the branches and leaves wither. As the saying goes: "dry pine and wet cypress" is for this reason. Three are afraid of inverting the pot frequently. Potted plants only need to be changed once every 3 to 4 years, and the time should be from late September to early October, or from February to March. However, some pine growers choose pots for shape, but they change pots randomly at untimely time. As a result, they die because of too frequently changing pots.
The "four essentials" are: as long as there is more sunlight, it is best to place it in a sunny and ventilated place. When the air is dry, spray water on the leaves twice in the morning and evening. Second, pruning should be carried out during the dormant period to prevent excessive loss of sap and damage its vitality. Third, it must be maintained in a ventilated, sunny, warm, humid, and smoke-free room in winter. Fourth, we must observe frequently and prevent and control pests and diseases in time.
