Suitable temperature and light for peacock calatheaOne of the reasons why the peacock plant does not grow tall is that the temperature is not suitable, too high or too low, or there is insufficient light. As for the habits of the peacock plant, it likes a warm and humid shady environment, and does not like low temperature and strong wind conditions. Secondly, special attention should be paid to avoid exposure to the sun. Therefore, the plant should be moved to a cool place during the high temperature season in summer. In addition, you must avoid high temperature environments, keep the ambient temperature below 30 degrees, spray water frequently for ventilation, and cool and keep warm to avoid yellowing leaves. Of course, in winter, you need to increase light and raise temperature appropriately. Suitable potting soil conditions for peacock arrowrootThe second reason why the peacock plant does not grow tall is the insufficient nutrient supply of the potting soil, because the peacock plant likes fertile, loose and well-drained soil, preferably slightly acidic leaf mold, or a mixture of decomposed base fertilizer, leaf mold, peat and river sand. The correct way to water the peacock plantThe third reason why the peacock plant does not grow tall is insufficient water supply. It has been mentioned before that the peacock plant likes moisture, especially during its growing season, it needs a lot of water, so you should increase the amount of watering appropriately and spray water in time to keep the environment moist. In winter, you need to control the amount of watering. As long as the soil in the pot is not dry, it will be fine. Then gradually increase the amount of watering in early spring. The correct way to fertilize peacock arrowrootThe fourth reason why the peacock plant does not grow tall is improper fertilization method that leads to malnutrition of the plant. During the growing period of the peacock plant, liquid fertilizer should be applied once a month to ensure the nutrients required for the plant's growth and promote its healthy growth. As for the types of fertilizers, phosphorus fertilizers and potassium fertilizers are mainly used, and it is not advisable to use too much nitrogen fertilizer. Improper fertilization can lead to stunted plants. In addition to applying fertilizer, you can also spray liquid fertilizer on the leaves and then water them. It is especially important to stop fertilizing after entering winter. |
