Breeding methods and precautions of Shitong

1. Temperature requirements of soil children

The most suitable temperature for its growth is generally between 20 and 30 degrees, the highest temperature cannot exceed 35 degrees, and the breeding temperature cannot be lower than 5 degrees. In order to safely overwinter in winter, you should always pay attention to temperature control, and the drier the potting soil is, the more cold-resistant it is. The temperature in winter should be relatively stable and low. If the temperature difference between day and night is large, frost damage will easily occur. In spring, the temperature will reach above 15 degrees, and then it will start to grow. In summer, if the temperature reaches above 35 degrees, it will quickly enter a dormant state and will not be able to start growing again until autumn.

2. The requirements of the soil child for light

Earth child prefers sunlight. Under strong sunlight, it will turn purple-red and the flowers will be very bright. Therefore, be sure to give it sufficient light, especially in winter when it needs more sunlight. In summer, it needs proper shade to avoid direct sunlight.

3. The soil child needs to be repotted in time

Young plants of the earthworm need to be repotted once a year. Growing plants do not need it, but after a period of time, the nutrients in the pot will begin to decrease, the roots will be filled with the potting soil, or due to frequent watering, the soil will become very hard, which will not be conducive to drainage and ventilation, and it will easily cause the roots to rot. Therefore, it is generally necessary to change the pot every 2 to 3 years. This will allow it to absorb nutrients better.

4. Water quality for watering

The water used for watering should not contain too much salt. Generally, rainwater or well water can be used. But the water temperature cannot be too low, it is generally good to be close to the air temperature. If it is tap water, you need to put it in the tank for 1 to 2 days before using it. If you have fish at home, you can use the water in the fish tank to water them, the effect will be better. Therefore, watering must pay attention to the water quality.
