Cultivation methods and precautions of mist ice jade

1. Maintenance methods

1. Light: During its growth period, it must be given sufficient light. Under sufficient sunlight, its leaves will be arranged in a very stylish manner and will look very beautiful after growing fluff. If there is insufficient light, it will grow too tall.

2. Water: In spring and autumn, just keep the soil in the pot slightly moist. Summer is its dormant period, so just put it in a cool place and cut off the water. After autumn, you can slowly resume watering.

3. Soil: The plant does not have very high requirements for soil, so when preparing the soil, just focus on air permeability. Coal slag and peat are good choices.

4. Temperature: Its habits are quite special. It will hibernate in the high temperatures of summer and continue to grow in the winter. It has a certain degree of cold resistance and the minimum temperature should not be lower than 4°C.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: The reproduction of Mist Ice Jade is mostly carried out by sowing, and the seeds can be obtained through its flowers. Sow the seeds. If the seeds are fresh enough, they will germinate in 2 or 3 days. Be careful not to move them too much when they are taking root, so as not to affect their growth.

2. Repotting: Although it does not have very high requirements for soil, the air permeability of the soil will become poor over time. At this time, you need to change the soil and pot. Basically, it is sufficient to change it once every one to two years. Be careful when repotting the plant; its roots are very fragile and should not be damaged.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Root rot: Root rot of the ice jade plant mostly occurs during its dormancy in the summer. Because it is poorly managed during its dormancy in the summer, it is easy for water to accumulate and the roots to become soaked in the rainy season. The roots should be checked and the soil replaced as soon as possible.

2. Slow growth: Slow growth mostly occurs in winter. This is because the temperature in which it grows is too low. If the temperature is below 4°C, the growth will be slow or even stagnant.

IV. Other issues

1. Can it be cultivated indoors: Mist Ice Jade can be cultivated indoors. As long as it is placed in a well-lit location, it can grow well indoors. However, you should open windows frequently for ventilation to avoid the breeding of pests and bacteria.
