How can Algae Bell Jade safely survive the summer?

Summer conditions

The suitable growth temperature for Algae Bell Jade is 18~24 degrees. If the temperature exceeds this, Algae Bell Jade will slowly begin to hibernate.

Summer Sunshine

The summer sun is very strong. At this time, we should provide appropriate shade. Using a shade net is a good choice! After all, even in its dormant period, Algae Bell Jade still needs photosynthesis!

Moisture conditions

Water once every 15 to 30 days, usually after 8 o'clock in the evening, because the sun has set at this time and the temperature has dropped a lot compared to daytime. The temperature difference between the soil and water will not be too large like during the day, causing damage to the roots of the algae bell jade.

When watering, be sure to pour water on the edge of the pot. Do not water it directly on the head. Do not let the water dry out at night. The rising temperature during the day will cause the heart of the algae bell jade to rot. At the same time, the refraction of water droplets will also cause damage to the leaves of the algae bell jade.

Watering Guide

In early summer, use a small pot and carefully water one corner. If the soil is breathable, water will immediately flow out from the bottom of the pot. Don't water after you see water flowing out.

In midsummer, you only need to water the plant lightly at the corners of the pot, without watering until water comes out of the bottom of the pot. A small amount of water is enough for the roots of the algae bell jade to absorb. In addition, the pot must not be soaked in summer.

Ventilation conditions

When cultivating algae bell jade, ventilation must be good. If you only water it without ventilation, the plant will easily rot. Ventilation is even more important in summer, and ventilation in summer can also reduce temperature! If conditions permit, you can use artificial cooling methods, such as exhaust fans.
