What should I do if the new jade ornament grows too long?

What does the new jade ornament look like?

The new jade ornamental plant is a light-loving plant. If it is kept in a dark environment for a long time, it will grow too tall, causing the leaves to become sparse and the branches to become longer, making the plant shape extremely unsightly. It will also cause excessive consumption of nutrients and, in severe cases, affect its growth and development.

Reasons for the elongation of new jade ornaments

1. Insufficient light : New Jade is a light-loving plant. Although it is relatively shade-tolerant, if it is kept in a dark environment for a long time, it will cause excessive growth, so be sure to avoid this situation when caring for it.

2. Excessive watering : If the new jade ornament is watered too much during the maintenance period, it will cause excessive growth. It is a very drought-resistant plant, so if it is watered too frequently, it will cause excessive growth.

How to deal with the overgrowth of new jade ornaments

1. The new jade ornament is a light-loving plant. When it is growing normally, it needs to be placed in an open area and receive sufficient sunlight. Under good light conditions, it will gradually restore its previous growth. When it is normally maintained, in addition to the strong light in summer, there must be sufficient light.

2. The new jade plant is relatively drought-resistant, so you must water it appropriately during normal maintenance. Too much water will cause the branches and leaves to grow too long and affect the growth of the root system. Therefore, it is best to water it according to the dryness of the soil.

3. The new jade ornament does not have a very high demand for nutrients. Generally, it does not need to be fertilized. During the growth period, a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer can be applied to meet its growth needs.
