All the flower planting friends know that the soil needed for plant growth should be well drained, well ventilated, loose and fertile, and rich in humus.
The water demand of Coleoptera is relatively strict. During the growth period, the basin soil and environment should be kept moist, and drought and waterlogging should be avoided. Its biggest ornamental value lies in the colorful leaves. Once watered too much, the leaves are easy to dehydrate and lose color, and the roots are easy to be infected and rotten.
The light has a great influence on the color of leaves. When the sun is abundant, the leaf color will obviously be much more gorgeous, but avoid the hot summer sun, too strong sunlight will lead to the loss of glossiness of leaf roughness. Of course, the color leaf grass is not bright in the shade environment for a long time.
Colorful leaf grass likes warm and humid environment, and requires fresh air. In winter, the room temperature should be controlled at 20-25 ℃, the lowest winter temperature should not be lower than 10 ℃. When the temperature is too low, the leaves will turn yellow and fall off, and the plants below 5 ℃ will gradually die. When maintaining in other seasons, try to keep the temperature within a certain range and do not change suddenly.
The requirement of colorful leaf grass for fertilizer is not high, so enough basal fertilizer should be applied when planting. During the growth period, the thin fertilizer mainly composed of nitrogen fertilizer was applied once or twice a month.
It should be noted that the soil should be disinfected during planting. In the growing period, leaf spot may occur, and 50% tobramycin solution can be used for spraying sterilization. It is easy to cause damage to scale insects, spider mite and Whitefly in indoor cultivation of colored leaf grass, and 1000 times solution of Omethoate can be selected.
