What kind of flowerpot is suitable for goldfish spider plant

Goldfish Chlorophytum looks better when planted in red or solid-colored pots, and is also very ornamental when it blooms. In addition, as the plant grows, it becomes larger and larger, so it needs to be repotted every once in a while. When repotting, pay attention to using a pot that is large enough and does not need to be too deep.

Decorate the goldfish hanging flower pots with cute faces to give them more expressions. Wouldn’t that make them more eye-catching? This will also make life more colorful and make growing flowers more interesting.

Goldfish Chlorophytum Flower Pot Selection

If you want to grow goldfish spider plants, you don’t need to prepare suitable flower pots for them. Ordinary flower pots can be suitable for their growth, such as clay pots, purple pottery pots, plastic pots, wide-mouthed shallow pots, etc.

When planting goldfish spider plants, it is best to use a shallow flowerpot, because its roots grow relatively shallowly. If the flowerpot is too deep, water cannot penetrate out in time, and root rot is likely to occur.

Key points for cultivating goldfish spider plants in pots

1. Temperature

Chlorophytum comosum is a tropical herbaceous vine. It has relatively high temperature requirements during its growth process and needs a growth environment of 10-28℃. Too low temperature will cause frost damage.

2. Soil

The roots of the goldfish spider plant are fleshy roots, and the potting soil for maintenance needs to be loose, fertile, well-drained acidic loam. For home maintenance, you can use leaf mold or peat, garden soil, river sand or perlite, mixed in a ratio of 4:3:2; you can also use three parts peat and one part perlite to mix.

3. Lighting

The goldfish plant has special requirements for light during the breeding process. In summer and autumn, it should be kept away from strong direct sunlight, and moderately shaded or placed in a place with bright scattered light. In winter, it is necessary to ensure sufficient light to facilitate its flowering.

4. Fertilizer

Goldfish Chlorophytum needs sufficient fertilizer during its growth. When potting or changing the soil, you can mix some fully decomposed organic fertilizer or slow-acting all-vegetarian compound fertilizer into the soil. During the growth period, which is mainly in spring and autumn, you can apply topdressing every half a month, using thin liquid fertilizer.

5. Notes

During the maintenance process, timely pruning is required to promote the growth of side branches to make the plant shape more complete. Usually, as long as it is placed in a well-ventilated and well-lit environment, there are generally few diseases and insect pests. If the ventilation is improper and the humidity is low, scale insects may sometimes cause damage. Once found, you can use a black toothbrush to wipe it off in time.
