How to grow coleus

1. Soil

The soil requirements for coleus are: loose and fertile, rich in humus, and with good drainage and air permeability.

2. Lighting

It is relatively sensitive to sunlight. If the light is too strong, it will be sunburned and the leaves will lose their luster. If the light is too weak, it will not be able to grow normally and the color of the leaves will be duller. Therefore, it needs to be given sufficient and soft light conditions when breeding.

3. Temperature

It prefers warm growing conditions but is not cold tolerant. If the temperature is adjusted to 20-25℃ in winter, it will be able to grow normally. If the temperature is below 10℃, its growth will be abnormal.

4. Fertilization

It needs to be fertilized during the growing season, mainly with nitrogen fertilizer, and apply a thin liquid fertilizer 1-2 times a month.
