Reticulum prefers semi shade environment rather than direct sunlight. In summer, we need to shade the netted grass to cover most of the sun. In winter, the netted grass can be moved indoors where it can be exposed to the sun for maintenance.
The suitable temperature for the growth of reticulum is 18-24 ℃, which is not cold resistant. The best temperature for overwintering in winter is above 10 ℃, not below 8 ℃.
When planting, the soil rich in humus can be selected, which requires strong air permeability, water retention capacity and peat soil.
It needs to master certain skills to water the reticulate grass. Because the root system of the reticulate grass is relatively shallow, the influence is not good whether the water is more or less when watering. Basically, keep the basin soil slightly wet, not too dry or too wet, too dry will make the leaves lack of water, too wet will make the roots of the reticulum rotting.
The requirement of fertilizer is high, but fertilization should follow the rule of thin fertilizer application. In the period of vigorous growth, we can apply fertilizer once every half a month. In order to make the leaves green, we can spray some manganese sulfate solution to the leaves.
The propagation of reticulum is usually by means of branch propagation, Cuttage Propagation and tissue culture.
In the process of growth, diseases and insect pests often appear in patella, but there are also diseases such as leaf rot, root rot, scale insects, snails and spiders.
In order to make it more branched and to control the height of plant, it is necessary to pick the heart frequently during the growth period of Aegilops, which is conducive to the vigorous growth of Aegilops.
