soilEpiphyllum has a strong tolerance to soil. Loose and fertile sandy soil is the best, but general mixed soil is also acceptable. It is best to use soil with good drainage, but be careful not to make the soil too wet. illuminationEpiphyllum does not like direct sunlight and is best maintained in a semi-shaded location. If the sunlight is too strong, the branches and stems will wilt and turn yellow, affecting their ornamental value. The sunlight is not strong in winter, so you can just place it in a sunny place indoors to ensure sufficient light. If it is in other seasons, you need to pay special attention to shading and maintenance. temperatureEpiphyllum likes a moist and warm environment and is afraid of cold, so in winter you must pay attention to keeping warm and the temperature must be maintained above 5℃. Generally, it needs to be moved indoors and the temperature can be kept at around 10℃ to safely overwinter. MoistureWhen planting Epiphyllum, the first thing to pay attention to is the humidity of the air. It is usually grown indoors in winter. Especially in the northern regions, the house is particularly dry in winter. You can often spray water on the leaves to increase the humidity. In winter, you need to control the amount of water and not water too much. Generally, you can water it once every ten days to half a month. Keep the soil in the pot slightly dry. Avoid water accumulation in the pot, otherwise the roots will easily rot. It is best to water in winter during the period of noon when the temperature is higher. This is when it is warmer and the water temperature is closer to the potting soil temperature. If the temperature is too low, you need to stop watering, otherwise the plants may be easily frozen. fertilizerThis flower likes fertilizer very much and requires a lot of it. It is generally best to use decomposed organic fertilizer, and you can add a little superphosphate. During the growth period of the Epiphyllum, it is necessary to water it with thin fertilizer every half a month or so. If you want the Epiphyllum to grow more vigorously, you can add a little vinegar to the liquid fertilizer. When the flower buds sprout, you can apply potassium dihydrogen phosphate once to promote flowering. After the flowers fade, you need to apply liquid fertilizer one or two more times to promote the quality of flowering the following year. Fertilization is generally stopped in winter, but in a warmer environment indoors, you can fertilize regularly according to the situation. |
