How to grow star buds, is it better to use a deep pot or a shallow pot?

1. Breeding methods

1. Planting material: Star flower is suitable for growing in soft and breathable soil. When growing it, it is recommended to use planting material made of a mixture of Akadama soil, medical stone and leaf mold. The planting material should be renewed every 1-2 years of maintenance.

2. Temperature: It likes a warm environment and is not very cold-resistant. Normally, it is recommended to control the temperature within 18-28℃. In winter, be sure to keep it warm and the temperature around it must not drop below 7℃.

3. Watering: It likes a slightly dry growing environment, but does not like a growing environment that lacks water for a long time. When raising it, you need to water it every 3-4 days so that a small amount of moisture can be retained in its planting material for its growth.

4. Fertilization: It does not require a lot of nutrients to grow. Normally, it is sufficient to apply fertilizer once every 2-3 months. If the fertility of the planting material is high, you can change to fertilizing once every 4-6 months.

2. Pot selection suggestions

When planting star ash, it is recommended to use a flowerpot of moderate size and depth, but with good air permeability and drainage capabilities. Generally speaking, a pot with a depth of about 8-10cm is sufficient for small and medium-sized plants. Slightly larger plants can be planted in deeper pots. The flower pots used need to have bottom holes to facilitate drainage and reduce the probability of root rot in the plants.
