The money tree , with its lush green leaves and auspicious name, has become a popular choice for home decoration. But many people find that maintenance is not easy after purchase. If you want to cultivate a money tree well in a home environment, you must learn how to grow a money tree? 1. Soil selection Since the root system of the money tree is not well developed, it requires soil with good air permeability. It is recommended to avoid using regular garden soil as it tends to cause root rot indoors. You can use river sand and nutrient soil mixed in a 1:1 ratio, which can not only ensure the air permeability and water permeability of the soil, but also provide the necessary nutrients. If conditions permit, adding some fermented pine needle soil can help adjust the soil pH. 2. Lighting management Except for appropriate shade in the summer, the money tree should be placed in an environment with sufficient light in other seasons. Full sun helps the leaves grow larger and darker in color. 3. Watering method When watering the money tree, you should follow the principle of "water thoroughly when the soil is dry". Avoid watering frequently or letting the soil too dry to prevent the roots from drying out. Maintaining proper moisture helps the plant grow healthily. 4. Reasonable fertilization As a foliage plant, the money tree needs sufficient nitrogen fertilizer to promote lush leaf growth. You can choose fertilizers with high nitrogen content, such as Huaduoduo No. 10, and apply it 2 to 3 times a month, following the principle of "thin fertilizers and frequent application" to ensure that the plants get adequate nutrition. 5. Environmental ventilation Maintaining a good ventilation environment is essential for the money tree. If the room is not well ventilated, the risk of leaf rot may increase. In this case, a fungicide such as mancozeb can be added when watering to prevent root rot. Regularly spraying the leaves with a solution of mancozeb or carbendazim can help prevent the disease. 6. Adjust soil pH Since the money tree likes acidic soil, flower lovers in northern regions may need to use ferrous sulfate solution regularly (1 to 2 months) to adjust the pH of the soil, help the plant absorb iron, prevent new leaves from turning yellow, and maintain the green leaf color. The above is an introduction to the key points of growing money trees. Friends who have money trees at home can refer to it based on actual conditions. If you have any other questions, you can also leave a message.
