Water control: enough water is needed, and watering can be done properly.

I. basin soil selection

The basin soil with strong air permeability should be used for breeding. The soil should meet the requirements of loose and good drainage. Generally, it is mixed with peat soil, vermiculite and part of perlite. It is better to use acid soil than alkaline soil.

2. Light intensity

It doesn't like to grow in the environment with high light intensity. It is usually shaded in spring, summer and autumn. In winter, it can see sunshine all day. It is suitable for growing in the place of ventilation and astigmatism, so the light should not be too strong. But before it blooms, it can gradually increase the light intensity.

3. Water control

In addition to the cold winter, the water in other seasons should be sufficient. You can also use a watering can to spray it daily, but do not let the water splash on the leaves of plants. When entering the severe winter, you need less water, too much water will increase the possibility of rotten roots

4. Proper fertilization

During plant growth, it needs to be fertilized every 7-15 days. The concentration of fertilizer should not be too high. Before fast flowering, it can increase the content of P and K fertilizer, which is helpful for more flowering. However, it is better not to apply fertilizer in the flowering period.
