Flowerpot: the flowerpot of Buddha bead need not be too big, but its air permeability is good. Soil: it is suitable for the soil with strong air permeability. It is better to mix the rotten leaf soil and coarse sand in the proportion of 1:3, and add some coal slag. Water content: it needs sufficient water during the growth period. When watering, it needs to be fully dry and can be watered once a week. Nutrient: adhere to thin fertilizer and apply frequently, and spray some diluted nitrogen fertilizer regularly.

I. maintenance method

1. Flowerpot selection: the flowerpot for cultivating Buddha beads does not need to be too large, but it should have good air permeability. You can choose clay basin, tile basin, or porcelain basin with hole at the bottom.

2. Selection of substrate: the soil with strong air permeability should be selected for cultivating Buddha beads, and the rotten leaf soil and coarse sand can be mixed in the proportion of 1:3 when the soil is configured. When loading the basin, a layer of cinder can be spread on the bottom to increase the permeability of the soil.

3. Water management: the leaves of Fozhu are thick and juicy, with strong drought resistance. After the soil is dry, water it again, about once a week. Summer weather is hot and dry, the root is easy to rot, not suitable for frequent watering, you can spray water to the leaves or vines.

4. Nutrient management: the principle of thin fertilizer and frequent application shall be adhered to when applying fertilizer to Buddha beads. During the peak growth period, thin liquid fertilizer mainly composed of nitrogen fertilizer shall be applied once every 15 days. At the same time, in order to make the leaves colorful, you can also spray a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer and potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Mites: in summer, mites are easy to appear in Fozhu, which can be killed 1000 times by dicofol. In addition, usually can maintain ventilation, increase leaf humidity to prevent pests.

2. Rotten root: it is more drought resistant, frequent watering will inhibit the respiration of the root, and the water quantity should be controlled when watering. If the problem of rotten roots has not been improved, we can consider changing a basin of soil with strong air permeability.

4. Other issues

1. Can it be cultured at home? The Buddha beads are drought resistant, green all year round, highly ornamental, easy to operate in the maintenance process, and rarely suffer from diseases and insect pests, so they are more suitable for cultivation at home.

2. Whether it can rain: summer is the dormancy season of Buddha beads. At this time, it grows slowly. In addition, there may be impurities in the rain water, so try to avoid it from raining. If you accidentally drench with rain, you should strengthen ventilation to prevent roots and leaves from rotting.
