Goldfinger is a cactus plant. It is absolutely easy to keep. It can endure drought and water. It can survive as long as it doesn't move a knife. Let's see how to raise golden fingers.
Cactus plants were originally grown in arid desert areas, with sufficient sunshine. If you move to an ordinary family, you need to ensure the sunshine intensity. It's good to have a full day without shading. It doesn't matter if there is no sunshine in cloudy days.
The most suitable temperature for growth is 15-22 ℃, and the temperature under full day illumination is 20-28 ℃. It's basically close to the temperature of people's life, and it doesn't need to cool down or light up at home. Pay attention not to put it outdoors in winter to avoid frostbite.
The golden fingers should be watered not dry but thoroughly. The most taboo is to water the shallow water every three or five times, especially the water left in the cup. Golden fingers are very resistant to drought. When the temperature is low in winter, keeping the basin soil slightly dry can survive the winter safely.
The amount of fertilizer required for golden fingers is not much. During the growth period, fertilizer is applied once a month. The rotten cake fertilizer is selected for dilution and soaking, and the fertilizer and water are irrigated, or the granular fertilizer is selected, and the fertilizer is stopped during the winter dormancy period.
Golden fingers like fertile and well drained soil, so proper soil selection before planting can reduce many unnecessary troubles. One is to reduce late fertilization, the other is to reduce the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.
There are few diseases and insect pests in golden fingers, such as anthrax, blight and scale insects. We should do a good job in prevention and control, so that we can find and control them early. These diseases and insect pests often occur when the ventilation is poor, so we should pay attention to keep the ventilation of the breeding environment.
Gold finger growth is not very fast, but a period of time next to the growth of many sub ball, soon will be full of basin. In general, one or two years to turn basin or change basin, turn basin can be divided.
