Breeding methods and precautions of yellow cicada

How to breed yellow cicada

Watering

Yellow cicadas prefer high temperature and high humidity, so the soil should always be kept moist, especially from spring to autumn, when sufficient water should be maintained. Water should be controlled during the dormant period. If the plant is frostbitten, the amount of watering should be moderate, because it is difficult for plants in the recovery period to absorb nutrients. If you water too much, the plant will not be able to absorb it, and it will cause its roots to rot.

temperature

The yellow cicada is not cold-resistant and avoids frost. The minimum temperature in winter should be kept above 15℃. If the temperature remains low for a long time at 5-6℃, the branches and leaves will be damaged.

soil

Yellow cicadas prefer fertile, well-drained soil, so peat soil or leaf mold should be used for potting.

illumination

The yellow canary is a strong light-loving plant and can survive in a semi-shaded environment, but it must be exposed to sunlight for at least 5 hours a day.

Fertilization

When planting yellow candied ivy, apply well-rotted cake fertilizer or garbage as base fertilizer. Apply compound fertilizer once before flowering in spring and during the peak flowering period in summer, which can promote more flowering and prolong the flowering time.

During the growing season of the yellow cicada, fertilize once every 20 days to promote vigorous branches and continuous flowering. If the plant is frostbitten, stop fertilizing.

Precautions for breeding yellow cicada

Maintain light intensity

To provide the yellow cicada with sufficient light, it is best to move it to outdoor sunlight in summer and place it indoors in direct sunlight in winter.

Pay attention to the soil matrix when planting

The yellow cicada prefers fertile and moist sandy loam to grow. It grows poorly in heavy clay soil and avoids waterlogging and saline-alkali land.

Less watering in winter

Although Huangchan prefers fertile and moist soil, the frequency of watering should be reduced appropriately in winter to keep the soil slightly moist.

Controlling ambient temperature in summer and winter

The suitable temperature for the growth of yellow cicada is 18-30℃, and it can also grow normally above 35℃. The suitable temperature during the winter dormancy period is 12-15℃, and it cannot be lower than 10℃. If it is below 5℃, the plant will suffer from frost damage.
