Is it appropriate to mix Ligustrum lucidum stump with nutrient soil?

Ligustrum lucidum is a good plant, but the influence of loam on it can not be ignored. Therefore, you still need to be careful when choosing. As far as normal old piles are concerned, from the perspective of maintenance, they are actually divided into two stages, that is, what we usually do. In these two different stages, it is better to distinguish the choice of soil. Personally, I think it can be as follows.

1, blank rising stage

At this time, the old pile has just been transplanted and the root system has not been restored. In order to make it survive quickly, the key work is to make the root system recover and grow quickly. During this period, the choice of loam is particularly important. In terms of function, it is loose, breathable and well drained, which can make the roots breathe better and help them recover. Therefore, it is more appropriate to choose clean pure river sand, but it does not have to be matched with nutrient soil. Because nutrient soil contains humus. There will be pure bacteria, a poorly maintained, easy to infect the injured root system, causing rot, which is not conducive to its recovery. Usually this is for the old pile that has just come down the mountain, which is enough in the process of raising embryos for it. Time is about 1-2 years.

2. Stocking stage

When the down-hill piles survive, the roots have resumed to grow, and the river sand shows its own disadvantages. Because there is no humus and there are few nutrients, it is necessary to fertilize regularly to provide nutrients for hemorrhoids. But excessive fertilization may cause fat damage. It is more appropriate to add a proper amount of nutrient soil. At this time, when changing pots, it is best to mix with humus soil, vegetable garden soil, humus soil and other nutrient soil. However, we must pay attention to the proportion. Looseness and ventilation are the basic requirements of bonsai, which must be resolutely maintained.

3. Normal maintenance stage

For the old bonsai piles, the normal maintenance management is not only watering and fertilizing, but also the necessary maintenance measures. For Ligustrum lucidum, because of its rapid growth, its germination ability is very strong. According to the size of pile materials, the basin changing time can be once every 1-2 years. Therefore, it is also an important work to match reasonable planting materials in the process of changing pots. Ordinary loam can be changed when changing pots at ordinary times. The newly added loam can meet the requirements of stocking stage. Fill in a proper amount of nutrient soil with good fertility.

Summary: different stages of maintenance have different purposes. Recovery should be considered in the blank rising stage, and growth should be considered when it is normal. Especially for the green piles that have just come down the mountain. Reasonable collocation of loam can effectively improve the growth environment of roots and avoid some unnecessary risks.
