Cultivation methods and precautions of Golden Edge Tiger Pilan

1. Breeding methods

1. Fertilization

During its growth period, it should be fertilized once a week, which can be combined with watering. It is best to use compound fertilizer that can easily dissolve in water. You can also add some antibacterial agents. If it is spring, you can add bean cake fertilizer, which must be well decomposed. Add cake fertilizer during the growth period, and temporarily stop adding fertilizer after winter comes.

2. Water light

If there is too much water, the bottom of the leaves will easily rot. Wait until the pot is dry before watering. If it is a hot season, you should water it more to make the soil more moist. Because it is afraid of too strong light, you should also shade it slightly on hot days. In winter, it should be placed in a sunny area and no watering is needed. If it is planted in a plastic pot, even less water should be added, otherwise the roots will easily rot. During its growth period, wash the leaves and keep them clean.

3. Pruning

Its growth rate is relatively fast compared to other green plants, so the space in the pot is easily filled. At this time, you should prun it and cut off the aging leaves and overly dense areas.

4. Repotting

It is a perennial and needs to be repotted every two years. Fertilizer should be added to the new soil to provide it with the necessary substances for growth so that it can grow better.

2. Precautions

1. Its best growing period is spring and summer, but seedlings can be cultivated all year round.

2. Although it is not very demanding on the soil, soil with good drainage and good air permeability can better promote its growth, and sandy soil is best.

3. After cuttings, it is best to maintain a humidity of 75 to 85 percent, which is the optimal humidity.

4. It is suitable for growing under conditions of 18 to 27 degrees. If it is winter, the temperature must be above 12 degrees to survive the cold winter safely.

5. As a foliage crop, it likes long periods of sunshine very much. Because it contains three colors, it needs more sunlight. If the light is better, the leaves will be greener. If you keep it at home, you must also keep it in a lighted area.
