Chlorophytum can be said to be an ornamental foliage plant that every household has. Even people who don’t like to grow flowers have one or two pots at home. Chlorophytum not only has green leaves that can green the home environment, but it can also absorb harmful gases indoors and purify the air quality. Moreover, it is cheap and has a high cost-effectiveness. So how can you grow Chlorophytum comosum more vigorously in summer? Let’s take a look below. 1. Lighting Chlorophytum comosum grows best in a bright location that is not directly exposed to strong sunlight. In the summer, choose to place it in a bright location indoors or in a shaded outdoor area. Avoid prolonged exposure to strong sunlight to prevent leaf damage. 2. Temperature and humidity Chlorophytum likes a warm environment, and the suitable temperature range in summer is 20-30 degrees Celsius. Keep the room temperature comfortable and avoid sudden temperature changes. Chlorophytum has high requirements for moderate humidity. The ambient humidity can be increased by spraying water, placing a water tray or using a humidifier. 3. Watering During the summer months, your spider plant's watering needs may increase. Keep the soil moist, but avoid overwatering and waterlogging. Check soil moisture regularly and water as needed. Before watering, make sure the soil surface is slightly dry. 4. Nutrition and fertilizer Summer is the growing season for spider plants, which require proper nutrition. Use a fertilizer suitable for houseplants and follow the product instructions during the growing period. Avoid over-fertilizing, which can cause salt accumulation and root damage. 5. Drainage and ventilation Chlorophytum needs good drainage and ventilation. Use soil that has good drainage, and make sure the planting container has drainage holes in the bottom. Maintain proper ventilation and avoid keeping plants in a hot and humid environment for a long time. 6. Pruning and pruning Summer is a great time to prune and trim spider plants. Prune back any dry, diseased or overgrown leaves and branches to promote new growth and the plant's aesthetic appearance. 7. Disease and pest control The hot and humid climate in summer is conducive to the breeding of pests and diseases. Check your spider plant's leaves and branches regularly, paying attention to common problems such as aphids, mites, and powdery mildew. Use appropriate control methods such as leaf washing, using soapy water or a suitable insecticide . That’s it |
