How deep is the potted Cycas buried?

Potted Cycas are generally planted in pottery pots or porcelain pots (shallow pots) with a diameter of 20 cm, and the planting depth is 8- 10 cm.

Extended data:

Cycas, also known as Cycas, is simple and elegant with evergreen seasons. It is a famous ornamental flower in living rooms, venues, hotels and families. Cycas has slow growth, beautiful tree shape, long life and easy management, and its leaves are good materials for flower arrangement. The planting period of cycads can generally be planted all year round. However, when planting in summer, the leaves are easy to turn yellow, turn white and die, so be careful not to be exposed to the sun after planting, and it is best to put them in the shade. Winter planting should prevent leaves from freezing to death, and it is best to move indoors after planting. If the leaves freeze to death, the accumulated nutrients will be reduced and the stems will be thinner, which will affect the number of leaves that germinate in the next year. The best planting time should be on the eve of germination. The first half of the year is generally from June to May of 65438+ 10. In the second half of the year, the stem tip of Cycas showed signs of germination, and the planting survival rate was relatively high!

1, illumination: Cycas is a light-loving plant. Spring and autumn should be placed in sunny places, but direct sunlight should be avoided. Proper shade should be provided in summer to prevent plants from getting sunburned. Because of the low temperature in winter, long-term sun exposure is also very helpful to raise the temperature, which can make plants overwinter better.

2. Soil: For domestic cycads, flowerpots with a diameter of 20-30 cm are generally used. The basin bottom should be paved with coarse sand or gravel to improve its drainage, with a thickness of about 2 cm. The special culture soil for planting preparation is generally mixed with humus soil, garden soil, bone meal and river sand, with the ratio of 4:3: 1:2.

3. Watering: Cycas is suitable for growing in a humid environment, so it must be watered frequently to ensure that there is enough water in the soil. But don't water too much, too much water will also affect the development of roots and even lead to rot. Water is usually watered once every two days in spring, once every day in summer, and water can be stopped in rainy days.

4. Fertilization: When planting Cycas, apply sufficient base fertilizer to it. Usually, the fertilizer is bean cake fertilizer, which should be fully decomposed before use to avoid fertilizer damage. In its growing period, topdressing is usually done once every 15-20 days, but fertilization should be stopped after autumn, and plants enter dormancy in winter, so the demand for nutrients is very low.
