Crystal Lotus Cultivation Methods and Precautions

Crystal Lotus Cultivation Methods and Precautions

1. Maintenance methods

1. Flower pot: Crystal lotus prefers small flower pots. When choosing a flower pot, it is best not to choose a pot that is not breathable or has poor drainage. You can choose some flower pots with good drainage and ventilation, such as ceramic pots and purple clay pots.

2. Soil: It likes a loose and breathable soil environment. You can use sawdust, garden soil and a small amount of leaf mold when preparing it. This kind of soil has good air permeability.

3. Temperature: It grows fastest at 15-25℃, and the maximum temperature cannot be higher than 30℃. In winter, try to move it indoors to keep it warm, otherwise it will freeze to death.

4. Water: During the growing period, the soil needs to be completely dry before watering, and watering must be thorough. In summer, it needs watering every 4 days, and in winter, it needs watering once a week or so. It needs less water during the dormant period and more water during the growing period.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: The main method of reproduction is division, which can be carried out from April to May. First, peel off the young plants around the mother plant to separate them, and then put them directly into the pot. Place the potted plant in a shaded area and it will take about twenty to twenty-five days for it to take root.

2. Wintering: When maintaining the plant in winter, you should pay attention to keeping warm and avoid maintaining it in temperatures that are too low. Especially in the north, it will be frozen outdoors.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Anthracnose: Plants are susceptible to anthracnose because the leaves are too dense and there is no good ventilation. Small black spots appear on the stems and nodes and will gradually spread. Once discovered, they should be removed as soon as possible, and then anthrax-free medicine and prevention measures should be used.

2. Rust: It will be infected in a humid and hot environment. The diseased leaves should be cut off immediately, and attention should be paid to ventilation. It should also be sprayed with diniconazole or ammonium chloride.
