What should I do if Ji Longyue grows too tall?

What does Ji Longyue look like?

If the plant grows too tall, the stems will become longer and longer, and the number of leaves will increase. The plant is constantly growing and consumes more nutrients. If there is a lack of nutrients in the later stage, it will cause poor growth and remedial measures need to be taken in time.

The reason for Ji Longyue's elongation

The reason why the moonflower grows too tall may be because it does not get enough sunlight and the maintenance environment is too dark. It may also be because it is watered too much, causing the branches and leaves to grow wildly, or it may be because it is not pruned in time during the growth period, causing the moonflower to continue to grow too tall.

How to deal with Jilongyue's leggy growth

1. Cut long branches short

When growing the moon plant, if you find that the plant is growing too tall, you can use sterilized scissors to cut short the overgrown branches and leaves to avoid the loss of excess nutrients. Then apply diluted carbendazim to the wounds of the moon plant to prevent and control diseases and pests, prevent the wounds of the moon plant from being infected by bacteria and rot, and allow it to grow healthily.

2. Suitable environment

After pruning the Moonflower, it needs to be moved to a ventilated environment for maintenance to prevent the plant from being burned by strong light and dying. During this period, the Moonflower cannot be watered to prevent the plant from waterlogging and rotting. Fertilizer should not be provided to the Moonflower to prevent the plant from being burned by the roots, which will cause the leaves of the Moonflower to turn yellow.

3. Adequate lighting

The moonflower needs sufficient nutrients during its growth process. When cultivating the moonflower, if it is placed in a dark place for a long time, it will cause the plant to grow too tall. The moonflower needs to be moved to a ventilated and cool place for maintenance. When the light is too strong, it is necessary to take shade measures for the moonflower to avoid exposure to strong light.

4. Control fertilization

When growing the Moonflower, if fertilizer is applied too frequently, the plant will grow too tall. If you want the Moonflower to grow healthily, you need to control the amount of fertilizer. You can apply fertilizer once every month. You also need to regularly spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves of the Moonflower to make the leaves greener and more lustrous.
