Cultivation methods and precautions of watermelon peperomia

Watermelon rind peperomia is also called bean green peperomia. This plant likes a warm and humid growing environment and is afraid of dryness. If properly maintained, it is generally not easy to get insects or diseases.

How to grow watermelon peperomia

1. Soil

Watermelon peperomia likes to grow in loose, fertile soil. Never use clay in it, because clay has poor drainage, which will directly lead to the plant's ability to retain water and not be discharged.

2. Lighting

Watermelon peperomia is a relatively shade-tolerant plant and does not require too strong light. It can be grown in a diffuse light environment at ordinary times. In summer, the plant must be shaded.

3. Temperature

Watermelon peperomia has poor cold and heat resistance, and it is best suited to grow at normal room temperature. During maintenance, it is necessary to observe changes in temperature in a timely manner and take appropriate warming and cooling measures.

4. Watering

Watermelon peperomia only has a greater demand for water during its vigorous growth period. At other times, water should be controlled appropriately. When the temperature is too high, you can spray water on the leaves of the plant regularly.
