How to grow mosquito repellent grass

The room temperature for the growth of mosquito repellent grass is above 10 degrees Celsius and below 25 degrees Celsius. It can safely overwinter at 0 degrees. The extreme low temperature resistance can reach minus 3 degrees. When it is above 15 degrees, the leaves emit a lemon scent, and the concentration of the scent is in a certain positive proportional relationship with the temperature.

3. Water and Fertilizer

The water and fertilizer management of mosquito repellent grass is relatively simple. Just ensure that the soil in the pot is slightly moist. It is more averse to overly wet soil. Water accumulation will cause root rot, especially in high temperature seasons.

5. Pruning

Mosquito repellent grass grows relatively fast, so it must be pruned promptly and properly, otherwise it will grow too tall, become too tall, and have a disordered plant shape. Paying attention to these points will allow you to grow the mosquito repellent grass well.
