Cultivation methods and precautions of Shixiantao

Water requirements

When planting stone peach, you should choose a flower pot without water holes at the bottom, because when it is first planted, it must ensure sufficient water and store water. The water level should be about 6 cm to 8 cm higher than the soil layer, but the actual height also depends on the height of the plant. The water cannot submerge the plant. It can be reduced appropriately after about 2 months. If the water is too deep and covers the plants, the plants will die easily.

Sunlight needs

Sunlight can make it grow stronger, but not all sunlight is suitable at all times. It still needs shade in the summer sun and the midday sun in spring and autumn.

Nutrient requirements

Fertilization only needs to be done once every three months, but each time you do so, be sure to drain most of the water in the pot, leaving only 1 cm of water, otherwise the plant will not be able to absorb nutrients better.

Humidity requirements

During the growth process, a humid environment is required, so the plant and its surroundings should be watered frequently. When the air is too dry and hot, water it several times a day to maintain the humidity of the air.

Temperature requirements

It does not have very high requirements for temperature and is both cold-resistant and heat-resistant, but simple cold-proof measures are still needed in the winter in Northeast China.

Harvest

When harvesting, drain all the water in the pot, and then harvest after about 10 to 15 days.
