How to grow Hawaiian coconut in autumn

1. Maintenance methods

1. Light: Although it is relatively shade-tolerant, placing it in a dimly lit place for 1 to 2 months will not have any effect on the plant. However, it cannot do without sunlight during its growth process, especially when light conditions deteriorate in autumn. It can be placed in a place where it can be exposed to sunlight. This can promote the leaves to become darker green, the branches and leaves to be more lush, and the growth to be stronger.

2. Water: Because March to October is its growing season, water is needed during this period to support the growth of the plant. You can water it according to the usual rules. However, at the end of autumn, the temperature will become very low and the fastest growth period will have passed. At this time, you can reduce the amount of watering to avoid water accumulation in the pot.

3. Fertilization: At the beginning of autumn, liquid fertilizer can be applied every 1 to 2 weeks to ensure the growth of the plants. As the temperature gradually gets colder, the amount applied can be gradually reduced so as not to burden the roots.

2. Precautions

Because it is an ornamental plant, the yellow and dead leaves that appear in autumn must be cut off with scissors in time.
