What soil is good for growing Milan?

1. Acidity and alkalinity

This kind of plant needs acidic soil. The land in the south is acidic, so the requirements are more relaxed than in the north. However, the soil in the north is alkaline. Using such soil to grow it can easily cause its death. Therefore, it is still necessary to find specific soil in the north. After the soil is prepared, you can water it with alum water once a month to control its pH value.

2. Configuration

We cannot use garden soil directly to grow it. We can consider using a certain configuration method, such as mixing humus soil, sand and garden soil together, or mixing peat and sand together. In addition, you can also mix garden soil, compost soil and sand. In addition, we can also go to the mountains and forests to find some old soil to cultivate it. We must know that plants have different requirements for soil, which also means that the formula can be changed and can be matched at will. Just make sure it's filled with nutrients.

3. Earthworms

Many people believe that putting earthworms in the soil is good for plants, but the truth is that this depends on whether the plants are in the ground or in a pot. The potted plant itself has limited space. If you put earthworms in it, they will move around inside. The roots of the plant and the soil will not be together, the root absorption will be affected, and the plant will be unhealthy.
