How to grow Dancing with the Wind in autumn

1. Control the temperature

It likes warmth. If the temperature is too low in late autumn, it will be frostbitten and its growth in the next year will be affected. The temperature in the north drops quickly in autumn, so it needs to be moved to a warm place for maintenance. The room temperature should be around 12 degrees. This temperature allows it to hibernate safely and spend the winter safely.

2. Control watering

Dancing with the Dragon has a strong ability to store water, so it is also very drought-resistant. In early autumn, watering is required every week. In late autumn, watering needs to be slowly controlled and stopped completely before winter. This process must be slow to give it time to adapt. If the water supply is suddenly cut off, it may stop growing in the second year.

3. Increase Lighting

The sunlight in early autumn is still quite strong, so shade is needed at this time. Moreover, shading can also lower the temperature around it, which is very beneficial to its growth. But the sunlight in late autumn is much milder, so you can place it in a sunny place such as a balcony to receive sunlight throughout the day.

4. Stop fertilizing

In late autumn and early winter, you need to fertilize it once to help it store nutrients for the winter. You can use bone meal or special fertilizer for succulents. The fertilization should be slightly heavier, because there will be no need to fertilize again for a while after this fertilization, and the plant will rely on this nutrient supply to survive the winter.

5. Ventilation

The north starts heating in autumn, and the indoor temperature is relatively high, which is not conducive to its growth. At this time, it should be given proper ventilation to cool down.
