Temperature: the requirement for temperature of Rhodiola fovea is not high, and it can be maintained at 20-30 ℃; watering: it is not resistant to waterlogging, and it can be watered once every seven days; fertilization: it needs to be fertilized twice a month when it is in the growing season and its nutrient consumption is relatively fast, and it does not need to be fertilized in the non growing period; lighting: it is not a light loving plant, and the daily sun exposure time is guaranteed to be four More than hours.

I. maintenance method

1. Temperature: it is relatively cold resistant and likes to grow in a semi overcast environment. The temperature of the soil should be kept between 20 ℃ and 23 ℃, which is conducive to the rooting of the plant. The maintenance temperature should be controlled below 30 ℃, so that the plant will grow better.

2. Watering: before the plant grows its roots, it needs to be watered more, because the growth process consumes a lot of water. Generally, it needs to be watered once every other day. After growing its roots, its growth is relatively stable, and it needs to be watered properly, generally once or twice a week.

3. Fertilization: the consumption of nutrients in the growing period is relatively large. It needs to be fertilized once every two weeks. It does not need to be fertilized in the non growing period. It needs to be fertilized once before winter to ensure a safe winter.

4. Light: it can't be exposed to the sun, so the way of light should be mainly astigmatism, and the daily light time should not be less than six hours. During the non growth period, the light time can be reduced properly. It's only four hours a day.

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Reproduction: it can be propagated by stem insertion. First of all, cut the stem about 10 cm from the healthy mother plant, remove the lower leaves, wait until the incision is slightly dry, and then insert it into the prepared culture medium, generally half a month to 20 days can take root.

2. Clean the garden: usually clean up its growing environment, which can greatly reduce the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.

3. Problem diagnosis

1. Insect pest: it is easy to infect scale insects. If it is found, it needs to be sprayed with 50 to 100 times the existing emulsion.

2. Disease: in case of yellow rot of branches and leaves, it is mostly caused by improper watering. It is necessary to dig out the roots, clean up the rotten parts of the roots, disinfect the incision, dry them slightly, and then replant them in the soil, and put them in a cool place for maintenance. After it slows down, it can be cultured normally..

4. Other issues

1. Whether it can be cultured indoors or not: it does not have high requirements for the maintenance environment, no matter for the soil or the maintenance temperature, the requirements are very low, which is more in line with the conditions of family cultivation, so it can be cultured indoors.

2. Edible: it can't be eaten directly, but the whole plant can be used as medicine, which can detoxify and treat the injury caused by falling.
