Watering method

During the growth period of Buddhist beads, the soil should be kept slightly moist, but no water should be accumulated, otherwise it will cause root rot. If the temperature exceeds 35 degrees in summer, the growth rate will slow down, so watering should be reduced at this time.

Fertilization method

Buddhist beads do not require much fertilizer. Usually, pay attention to applying more nitrogen fertilizer to reduce the concentration. They need to be diluted with water before use. Do not apply fertilizer when the temperature is too high, otherwise it will burn the roots of the plant and affect normal growth.
