How to grow pearl spider plant

1. Temperature control : Pearl Chlorophytum likes a warm and humid maintenance environment. It is generally suitable for growing between 20-28 degrees. Temperatures that are too high or too low will affect its growth. It will enter dormancy when encountering high temperatures. At this time, you should use less water and no fertilizer.

2. Appropriate amount of water : Pearl Chlorophytum is relatively drought-resistant. Pay attention to the amount of watering when caring for it. It is better to be a little dry than to have a wet pot. If the climate is dry, you can spray water on the leaves and vines to keep them moist. Otherwise, it will cause water accumulation and lead to plant rot.

3. Light and shade : When caring for the pearl spider plant, it needs sufficient light environment, but it should avoid exposure to the sun, because exposure to the sun can easily cause sunburn. Appropriate shade is needed during the hot summer.

4. Apply fertilizer in small amounts but frequently : Pearl Chlorophytum needs sufficient nutrients to grow, but when applying fertilizer, it is necessary to follow the principle of applying thin fertilizers frequently. Generally, spray about 3‰ nitrogen fertilizer and potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaves to meet its growth needs.

Pearl Chlorophytum care precautions

1. Don't water the pearl spider plant too much, and there should not be water accumulation in the pot, otherwise it will cause root rot. It should also avoid direct sunlight exposure. The maintenance measures should be changed according to the temperature and humidity of the environment. Also, do not apply too much fertilizer, otherwise it will easily cause root rot.

2. The pearl spider plant has fleshy branches and leaves, is juicy and drought-resistant. When caring for it, you need to pay attention to keeping it dry rather than wet.
