How to grow tiger skin plant

1. Breeding environment

1. Soil: Tiger Piranha likes loose, fertile and well-drained soil.

2. Watering: When new buds are growing, they need a lot of water, so keep the soil moist; after the leaves grow out, it is best if the soil is slightly moist, and water it after the surface of the potting soil is dry; when the temperature is relatively low in winter, keep the potting soil slightly dry, and do not water too much to avoid rot.

3. Fertilization: Tiger Piran needs an appropriate amount of fertilizer during the growth period, and can be applied with thin cake fertilizer water once every 10-15 days.

4. Light: Sansevieria can grow better with sufficient sunlight. It should be moved to a place with scattered light during the hot season. It should receive sufficient light at other times. Be careful not to place it in a place with strong sunlight for a long time, as the leaves will easily be burned.

2. Breeding Methods

1. Propagation by division: When repotting in spring, carry out division propagation. Plant it separately in clusters of 3-5 leaves.

2. Cutting propagation: Pick fresh and healthy leaves, dry them, insert them into the substrate and place them in a dark place. The light should not be too strong, pay attention to ventilation and ensure sufficient water, and keep the soil in the pot slightly moist.

3. Common pests and diseases

1. Rot disease: When the disease occurs, spots will appear. If the disease is serious, the leaves will become dry and sunken. After discovery, the diseased leaves should be cleaned up in time, and it is best to change the potting soil; or spray with carbendazim, about once a week.

2. Scale insects: They are not easy to be found in the early stage of the disease. In severe cases, white protrusions will appear on the leaves. You can spray them with oxychloride at intervals of 7-10 days.
