The suitable temperature for its growth is around 20 degrees. If it is below 10 degrees, it needs to be heated. The growing environment should be kept dry. If the humidity is too high, ventilation is required. Fertilize once every two weeks during the growing season, and choose fertilizers with mild effects. The amount of light per day should not exceed six hours, and can be increased appropriately in autumn and winter.

1. Maintenance methods

1. Maintenance method

1. Temperature: The suitable temperature for its growth is around 20 degrees. When the temperature exceeds 25 degrees, cooling measures are required, usually using a fan or high-pressure water mist system. Cool it down. If the temperature is below 10 degrees, it needs to be heated and moisturized to prevent the plant from freezing.

2. Watering: The environment in which it grows should be kept dry. , the humidity is 50%. If the humidity is too high, the plants are easily infected by germs. If the humidity exceeds 70%, ventilation is required to prevent the plants from being infected by germs.

3. Fertilization: It requires very few nutrients. Fertilizer consumption will increase during the growth period, so fertilization needs to be done every two weeks, and no fertilization is required at other times. Fertilizer seeds should be selected with relatively mild fertilizer effects, such as animal manure, farmyard manure, etc.

4. Lighting: It does not require strong light, astigmatism Lighting can meet its needs. The amount of light per day should not exceed six hours. The lighting time can be appropriately increased in autumn and winter, because the lighting in these two seasons is relatively mild and can extend the duration of sun exposure.

2. Breeding skills

1 , Propagation: To propagate it, you can use the sowing method. It self-pollinates, but the seeds scatter more easily, so seeds need to be collected. Its seeds are very small and can be grown in a flat tray. There is no need to cover the seeds with soil. The seedlings can grow in a month. After the seedlings emerge, there is no need to water them. You only need to keep the soil slightly moist. The purpose of this is to help the plants develop. When the seedlings grow to ten centimeters, they can be transplanted and planted.

2. Pruning: Under normal circumstances, no pruning is required. Just cut off the incomplete and rotten leaves. If you change the pot, you also need to clean up the rotten roots.

3. Problem diagnosis

1 Root rot: Plants infected with root rot are mostly caused by the soil being too moist and air-impermeable. The plants need to be dug out, the rotten roots cleaned, then the incisions disinfected, and then replanted into a well-ventilated soil. In the soil.

2. Anthrax: The onset time of this disease is During the rainy season, reddish-brown round spots will appear on the branches and leaves. First, the infected branches need to be cut off, and then sprayed with anthrax emulsion.

IV. Other questions

1 . Toxicity: It is not toxic, but its floral fragrance is relatively strong. If it is cultured in a closed space for a long time, if the floral fragrance is too strong, it will cause people to feel dizzy, so it needs frequent ventilation to disperse the smell.

2. Edible: It is inedible.
