Soil: Slightly alkaline soil is most suitable for cultivating Myriophyllum algae, which is very beneficial to its development. Moisture: Normally, you can water three times a week. In summer, you need to water more, and in winter, you need to water less. Watering once a week is enough. Nutrients: Top dressing is required once a week during the growing season. When applying fertilizer, avoid the roots of the plant, otherwise it will burn its roots. Light: It is a light-loving plant, but avoid direct sunlight. Diffused light is the best choice.

1. Soil

Myriophyllum likes to grow in slightly alkaline soil. This kind of soil is moisturizing, water-conducive, fertile and has good air permeability, which is very helpful for its growth. It can make it grow stronger and stronger.

2. Moisture

It has poor drought tolerance, so the soil layer should be kept moist for a long time. In summer, you should water more frequently, because water will evaporate faster when the temperature is high. Watering three times a week is enough. In winter, watering should be reduced, because plants have poor cold tolerance when the temperature is low. Too much water can cause frostbite, so watering once a week is sufficient.

3. Nutrients

During its growth period, it has a large demand for fertilizer. Fertilizer should be applied once a week. Organic fertilizer can be used as the fertilizer. Because this kind of plant has no dormant period, the absorption of fertilizer helps the plant grow quickly. It is suitable to apply it in small amounts and frequently. Too much fertilizer will affect normal growth.

4. Light

Sufficient light absorption will make the plant grow stronger and can withstand long-term exposure. It is best to place it in a sunny place. Although it is a light-loving plant, it does not like strong direct sunlight. It should be provided with appropriate shade protection when there is strong light.
