1. Temperature: crystal candle prefers to be warm. It can grow normally under 30 ℃ under normal circumstances. Too high temperature will be a little intolerable, so try not to exceed 30 ℃ in summer. At the same time, its cold resistance is not very high, so you need to keep the temperature above 15 ℃ to avoid frostbite on its branches and leaves.
2. Watering: crystal candle has a very low drought resistance. It needs to provide enough water for normal growth to ensure its normal growth is not affected. In spring, it needs to be watered every two days or so. In summer, it needs to be watered according to the specific situation of the soil. It is the best choice to keep the soil moist at all times. Running water is the best choice, and when it rains. Waiting for the rain can also be appropriate
3. Light: warm sunshine is the indispensable condition for its normal growth, but it should be noted that it cannot accept too strong light, otherwise the color of the plant branches and leaves will change, affecting the viewing, and the too weak light is not suitable, the plant growth will be relatively slow, unable to achieve the expected effect.
4. Fertilization: the soil has nutrients, and it will grow more vigorously. Each fertilization should be directly applied to its root, because the density of branches and leaves is large, which can not be normally absorbed. After fertilization, the residual fertilizer on the branches and leaves can be washed out with water..
1. Propagation: cutting and sowing are the two most commonly used methods. Cutting is suggested to be carried out in spring and summer. Select branches with three leaves, but insert them into the water, and they can be transplanted into flowerpots after germination. After sowing, we need to control the temperature. After sowing, we can germinate almost 20 days.
2. Pruning: crystal candles may grow more dense during the growth period, so you can increase the transparency through pruning, so as to ensure better growth, and cut off some dead branches together
1. Disease: leaf blight often occurs. It can be controlled by spraying Bordeaux solution every other month.
2. Insect damage: the occurrence of insect damage is relatively small, because its branches and leaves are relatively thick, so if the breeding is correct, it seldom happens.
1. Toxicity: no poison, but it can't be eaten. It's OK to breed
2. Whether it can be raised at home: Yes, it belongs to foliage plants, with high ornamental value.
