Precautions

Temperature: Keep the temperature at about 8-10 degrees Celsius in winter, room temperature is enough in spring and autumn, and pay attention to shade and cooling in summer. Moisture: Spring and autumn are the peak growth seasons, so water can be provided once a day; in summer, in addition to watering, spraying is also needed to increase humidification and cooling; in winter, watering is stopped during dormancy. Fertilization: Nutrient solution can be used as foliar fertilizer to facilitate rooting and germination. Pruning: Prune every spring to remove weak and diseased branches to promote spring growth and optimize the shape.

Habits

The first is temperature. It likes a warm environment. Generally, no special attention is needed in spring, summer, and autumn. In winter, you need to pay attention to the temperature for safe overwintering. In addition, it also requires more moisture, and the air humidity must also be ensured. There is also the need for fertilization at certain times. There are also operations such as pot selection and pruning.

Specific method

Temperature: first Let’s talk about winter temperatures. Generally speaking, a temperature of eight to ten degrees Celsius is enough. In other periods, if the temperature is not too low, there is basically no need to pay attention.

Moisture: First, don’t water it when you plant it. When growing and developing rapidly, because the water demand is relatively large at this time, it can be watered more often, once a day. In winter, this plant will enter a dormant period, so there is no need to continue watering at this time. In addition, if evaporation is very strong, we can also spray water around to ensure that the air humidity is around 70 to 80%.

Fertilization: You can use some nutrient solution as foliar fertilizer, which will help it take root and sprout.

Choose a basin: This is also very particular. You can choose a basin with porous surroundings and made of plastic or ceramic. The size should also be considered.

Pruning: Around spring every year, we need to remove diseased branches, weak branches, and branches that affect its overall shape.

Notes

Humidity is not The higher the better. If the temperature is very high in summer and the humidity is high, it will easily cause soft rot, so you have to pay attention.
