Breeding methods and precautions of Mantiaohong

1. Maintenance methods

1. Soil: It is suitable for growing in fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. You can buy the soil directly, or prepare it with leaf mold or coal soil.

2. Light: The red-striped plant loves sunlight very much, so you should give it plenty of sunlight when raising it, but don't put it in the sun for direct exposure in the summer. In summer, place it in a place with scattered light, or keep it in a cool place.

3. Temperature: It is suitable for growing in an environment of 20-25℃. If the temperature is high, you need to water it to cool it down. If the temperature is low, remember to keep it warm and place it in a ventilated place for growth.

4. Water: It is suitable for growing in a warm environment, so keep its soil moist. You can water more often in the summer because the water evaporates faster.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Repotting: Repot the plant every 2 to 3 years, preferably in autumn.

2. Pruning: Because of its strong vitality, its branches and leaves will become very dense. We need to cut off the withered and longer branches and leaves to promote the growth of new branches and leaves.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Water yellowing: The tender buds and leaves will turn yellow and wilt. This is because we do not manage it well, causing it to live in a humid and waterlogged place for a long time. Water less often on a normal day, and drain if there is too much water.

2. Dieback disease: It is caused by infection with pathogens. At first, the front branches and leaves will turn yellow, necrotic and fall off, and then spread to other places. First, we need to cut off the necrotic branches and leaves, and then spray and prevent them with fungicide or mancozeb.

IV. Other issues

1. Flowering period: It blooms around March to April, and the flowering period is about 15 days. Keep the temperature comfortable and apply some fertilizer appropriately to help flowering.

2. Can it be grown at home: It can be grown as a potted plant at home. It should be placed in a ventilated place. The seeds can also be placed in the balcony courtyard to make the home look more prosperous.
