How to grow miniature coconut palm in autumn

1. Increase sunlight

It is not tolerant to strong light. If you want it to grow strong and lush, it needs to be given appropriate light. The sunlight in early autumn is strong, so it needs proper shade to prevent it from being sunburned and dehydrated. The sunlight in late autumn is mild and the days are short, so you can increase the light for it and place it directly in a sunny place to receive sunlight all day.

2. Control the temperature

It likes warmth. If the growth temperature is below 10 degrees, it will stop growing. If it is below 0 degrees, it will be frostbitten. The autumn in the north is already very cold, so it needs to be moved to a warm place for maintenance. If there is floor heating at home, it should be placed off the ground for maintenance to avoid direct contact with the floor heating. If the indoor temperature is too high, you need to water the branches and leaves frequently to keep them moist and avoid dehydration of the plants. Autumn in the south is cold, so it should be placed indoors for maintenance before the cold wave arrives.

3. Control fertilization

It does not have high demands for nutrients. After autumn, it will slowly stop growing. At this time, it needs to be fertilized once, preferably with heavy fertilizer, because all the nutrients consumed during the winter come from this fertilization. Fertilizer can be rabbit manure, chicken manure, or chemical fertilizer.
