Cultivation methods and precautions of the rich fern

Cultivation methods and precautions of the rich fern

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: The royal fern likes coolness, specifically between 14 and 20 degrees. It is very afraid of heat, so when the temperature is above thirty degrees, it needs to be adjusted. However, its cold resistance is still good, unless it is in extremely cold places.

2. Light: The royal fern prefers partial shade. It will grow better in a state of scattered light. However, it is also relatively shade-tolerant, but in order to make it grow better, it should not be kept in very dark conditions for a long time. The more important task is to provide shade in the summer and prevent direct sunlight from reaching it.

3. Watering: The royal ferns like a humid environment, but it is not good to be too waterlogged. Generally speaking, during the growth period, the substrate needs to be kept slightly moist. The water demand is the highest in summer, so you can replenish a little every day.

4. Fertilization: It does not require much fertilizer. In addition to the base fertilizer during planting and soil changing, top dressing can be applied once a month, but not too much.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Repotting: The royal ferns are mainly grown as potted plants at home, so the step of repotting is more important. In the initial stage of its growth, it grows vigorously, so when changing the soil, you also have to replace the flowerpot with a larger one. Another thing is the specific choice of soil. You can use sandy soil or humus soil. You can also mix it with vermiculite, perlite and other materials, and mix in necessary base fertilizer.

2. Pruning: The growth of the rich fern is relatively vigorous, so it is easy to have some dense and messy leaves. These leaves can be pruned. Furthermore, the leaves may turn yellow due to excessive sunlight or too much watering. These leaves can be cut off in time.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Diseases: The diseases of the rich fern mainly target the leaves, such as "leaf blight" and "anthracnose", and the degree of damage is generally more serious. Therefore, it is necessary to cut it off in time and spray it with medicine after the symptoms appear.

2. Pests: Mainly "aphids" and "red spiders", which need to be controlled immediately, otherwise the number will increase, making prevention and control more difficult.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: The royal ferns are non-toxic and have excellent purification capabilities.

2. Can it be kept at home? Yes, it is not only for viewing but also has Feng Shui effects.
