How to raise Jilian

1. Breeding environment

1. Soil: It is best to use soil with good air permeability and drainage when breeding. You can mix granular soil and peat soil yourself, which can better meet the growth needs.

2. Light: It likes light and can be exposed to light all day long. However, please note that the light is strong in summer and it should be blocked in time or moved to a place with scattered light. The leaves will turn red when the light is strong, the temperature is too high or the temperature is too low.

3. Watering: Water frequently during the growing season and water thoroughly when dry. However, water should be controlled in hot seasons, and there is no need to water it thoroughly at once to avoid waterlogging which can easily cause root rot.

4. Temperature: It likes a warm environment. In fact, it can grow well as long as the temperature is not too low or too high. The low temperature should not be lower than 5 degrees, and the high temperature should not be higher than 35 degrees, and anything in between is fine. Therefore, we should pay attention to controlling the temperature in winter and summer.

2. Common pests and diseases

Common insect pests during maintenance are scale insects, which usually appear at the roots or leaves of the plants. They must be removed promptly when found to avoid further infection and affect growth. A common disease is black rot, which usually appears at the roots. When discovered, the diseased part should be cut off in time, disinfected, and then replanted.
