How to grow pineapple flowers

1. Selection of potting soil

A well-drained substrate is suitable for maintenance. Peat soil can be mixed with perlite and sand, and the pH value can be maintained at 5.5-6.5. You can add appropriate basal fertilizer.

2. Semi-shady environment

It is obvious that it is suitable for growth in a semi-shady environment, and its demand for light is not very obvious. In particular, it should be prevented from being exposed to the scorching sun. When exposed to the scorching sun, some of the leaves will turn yellow and the tips of the flowers will dry out. In the summer, you need to pay special attention and provide at least 70% shade, otherwise the growth of leaves will slow down and the flower buds will fade.

3. Proper moisture

It is easy to maintain and does not require much water. When watering, make sure the surface of the soil in the pot is slightly dry before watering again, that is, the surface 1-2 cm of the soil in the pot should be dry. But the amount of water must be controlled well, otherwise the roots will easily rot. Normally, you should also spray some water mist on the surface of the plant, but it cannot replace watering the roots.

4. Suitable temperature

20-30 degrees Celsius is the best temperature for its growth. The highest should not exceed 35 degrees Celsius and the lowest is 14 degrees Celsius. If it is lower than 10 degrees Celsius, you need to pay attention.

5. Fertilizer supply

April to September is the growing season, and liquid fertilizer should be applied every two weeks.
