How to plant masson pine (explain the key points of masson pine cultivation technology in detail)

Pinus massoniana is the dominant tree species in our mountain forest. Because the needles are shaped like ponytails, they are called masson pine. Twenty years ago, I successfully planted a living tree in my yard. When the house was high, the old man who listened to Feng Shui said that it was wrong for a family to plant a big pine tree. Just make a bonsai, so I cut down that big pine tree. Later, I regretted cutting down that pine tree when I made bonsai. This is not a good material for bonsai. At that time, the reason why pine trees were successfully planted alive was to understand the old farmer's sentence, "pine trees can't go down the mountain when they are dry, and willow trees can't go up the mountain when they are waterlogged." In order to feed Pinus massoniana better, we should fully understand its characteristics.

Evergreen trees with needles12-20cm long. Yellow or purple flowers bloom after heading in early April. After flowering, the fruit ripened at 5438+00 on June, about 5 cm long and shaped like a pig's heart. It belongs to strong positive tree species and is suitable for acidic soil. Root depth grows fast. Therefore, it can't be the main material of bonsai, and the survival rate of digging and transplanting is very low because of its long root system.

The best time for the excavation of Pinus massoniana is before the germination of new buds in spring, so that the time from excavation to cultivation can be shortened. Prune the roots of stems and branches properly before starting the pot, and then use a slightly wider deep pot, which is conducive to survival. Pinus massoniana likes to be dry, but it is best to be slightly wet in the first year.

Masson pine can provide modeling materials, and the heart must be potted for a certain year and flourish. If you lack patience, you will start modeling as soon as you see survival, and there is a great possibility of death. Modeling from dormancy to spring bud germination. Modeling adopts branch storage and trunk cutting method and hanging pruning method. The soil is mainly mountain sand, with proper amount of humus, and fertilizer can be applied once a year in autumn.
