1. Maintenance methods

1. Light: Kelp is a plant that likes light, so it should be given sufficient sunlight. In summer, it should be shielded from strong light to prevent it from being exposed to the sun. But don't be too shaded, otherwise the leaves will become droopy.

2. Temperature: It is a plant that likes high temperatures and is suitable for growing in an environment of 20 to 28°C. It has some cold tolerance and can continue to grow above 10℃, and can tolerate short-term low temperatures of around 0℃.

3. Soil: It has no requirements on soil. It is best to use acidic soil with soft and strong drainage ability for maintenance. Also, the soil must be disinfected before use.

4. Water: Water it once or twice a week when growing in spring and summer, and once every 3-4 days in autumn. After it enters the dormant period in winter, it can be watered once a week.

2. Breeding skills

1 2. Repotting: Repotting should be done after two to three years of maintenance. Because if the time is too long, the soil's air permeability will become poor. When repotting, you need to replace the soil again, take it out of the pot without damaging the roots, and repot it.

2. Propagation: Mountain kelp can be propagated by sowing, and the temperature should be kept at about 20 to 25°C during sowing. Buy better quality seeds and sow them evenly. They will germinate in 15 days.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1 . Leaf spot disease: At first, the leaves will have black spots, and the spots will continue to expand, causing the leaves to dry up. While pruning the diseased leaves, you must also spray pesticides. You can use chlorothalonil or carbendazim to control it.

2. The leaves are soft: This phenomenon usually occurs because it does not receive sufficient light or the amount of fertilizer is insufficient. It should be given adequate sunlight and properly fertilized.
