How to grow Diyulu

1. Breeding environment

1. Soil: Use loose and well-drained soil to grow Emperor Jade.

2. Light: Provide sufficient light during its growth period, but avoid exposure to strong sunlight. If it is kept in a shaded growth environment for a long time, the plant will become very loose and the leaves will be very slender. If it receives sufficient light, the leaves will be fuller and more transparent.

3. Watering: Emperor Jade Dew likes a humid growing environment. When watering, you must follow the principle of not watering unless the soil is dry. The amount of water should be controlled well and water should not accumulate. When the temperature is high or the weather is relatively dry in summer, you can spray water around the plant appropriately to increase the humidity of the air.

2. Breeding Methods

1. Propagation by division: Select young plants next to the mother plant during the growth period. If they have no roots, they must be dried in the sun for 1-2 days. Wait until the cut is dry before planting. Do not water too much after planting. Wait until the roots grow before maintaining them normally.

2. Leaf cutting propagation: Choose full leaves, insert them into the substrate, and make sure the substrate is moist. It will take root and sprout. When the small buds grow up, they can be planted separately.

3. Common pests and diseases

1. A common disease of Emperor Jade is root rot, which is mostly caused by water accumulation in the soil and poor air permeability. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the planting environment, avoid water accumulation, change the pot in time, and cut off the rotten roots.

2. The common insect pest is root mealybug. You can disinfect the soil before planting and add some insecticides appropriately.
