1. Soil: Ginger lotus has strong adaptability to soil and can be grown as long as the soil is not heavy. However, sandy soil with deep soil and good drainage is more conducive to its growth. You can also add a little organic matter as base fertilizer to provide sufficient nutrients.

2. Light: Ginger Lotus should not be exposed to strong light irradiation. Especially during the budding period and before the flower stems grow, proper shade is needed. But when the plants grow densely in August, they can receive direct sunlight.

3. Watering: Ginger lotus needs sufficient water before germination, and the soil must be moist for a long time, otherwise it will affect germination and delay the flowering period. In the middle stage of growth, the water should be sufficient, but there should be no stagnant water, otherwise it is easy to be infected by bacteria.
