Cultivation methods and precautions of Chlorophytum comosum

1. Maintenance methods

1. Sunlight: Chlorophytum comosum is a relatively shade-loving plant. When growing it, it can be placed in a dark place for a short period of time. When the sun is strong in summer, you must pay attention to shielding it. It is completely fine to place it in a semi-shaded place at other times.

2. Watering: Try to keep it moist during cultivation. It likes a humid growing environment very much, and hydroponics is also possible. If it is soil culture, be careful not to allow water to accumulate, especially in winter, and the amount of watering should be strictly controlled.

3. Temperature: It is a plant that likes warm and humid environment. The best cultivation temperature is between 20-24℃. Pay attention to temperature control in winter and summer. Too high temperature will cause yellow leaves, and too low temperature will even cause it to stop growing.

4. Fertilization: In spring and summer, it is the season of vigorous growth. At this time, you should apply enough fertilizer to it. In autumn and winter, its growth begins to slow down. At this time, you should mainly use foliar fertilizer or liquid fertilizer, and reduce the amount of fertilizer.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Pruning: Generally speaking, the growth of spider plants and green radishes is relatively random. When pruning, you need to pay more attention to the shape to ensure its growth quality. When its branches grow too long, you can cut off the part that exceeds 20 cm in length.

2. Repotting: The steps for repotting spider plants and green ivy are also very simple. First, take it out of the original soil and gently drain the soil at the roots. It’s okay to keep a little bit. Also, be sure to cut off the rotten and dried roots. It’s best to soak them in a solution of carbendazim. After drying, you can put it directly into the pot. It would be better to add some organic fertilizer to the new soil.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Yellowing leaves: There are many reasons for yellowing leaves. The most common ones are too much fertilizer or insufficient water. It may also be caused by long-term waterlogging leading to root rot. If the fertilizer burns the roots severely, the soil must be changed. Proper control will be enough if it is caused by water imbalance.

2. Diseases: Common diseases of Chlorophytum comosum and Chlorophytum comosum include root rot and leaf spot. The main reason is that you don't pay attention to ventilation during normal breeding. Cut off the diseased leaves in time, spray carbendazim solution, and keep the breeding environment ventilated.

IV. Other issues

1. Can it be raised in the bedroom: If it is used for viewing, it can be raised anywhere, but one thing to note is that it will consume oxygen at night. If the bedroom space is small, it is better to open the window for ventilation or not raise it.

2. Toxicity: There is no problem in daily breeding, but its juice is slightly toxic. If it comes into contact with the skin, it will cause redness, swelling and itching, so you need to pay more attention to it.
