How to grow Rouge Cloud in winter, what to do if the bottom leaves wither

1. How to keep it in winter

1. Temperature control and warmth keeping: Its cold resistance is not very high. The temperature in winter is low, so it must be moved to a warm place indoors in time. The indoor temperature should be above 10 degrees so that the plants can survive the winter safely. If it is too low, they will be frostbitten, which will hinder their later growth and may even cause death in severe cases.

2. Get more sun: It likes sunshine, and the light in winter is very soft, so it should be placed in a well-lit place indoors to get more sun. Adequate light can not only increase the temperature of the plant, which is beneficial for wintering, but it can also accumulate a lot of nutrients under the light, which is also beneficial for growth in the coming year and the overall condition will be better.

3. Reduce watering: In winter, its growth rate slows down and the water requirement will naturally decrease, so watering should be reduced. It has a strong drought resistance. If the soil is not dry in winter, do not water it. When it is completely dry, just add an appropriate amount of water. Also pay attention to the watering time, and choose to do it at noon when the temperature is higher to reduce stimulation. The water temperature should be as close to the indoor temperature as possible. You can freeze the water in advance and place it indoors to dry for two days before use.

4. Stop fertilizing: A certain amount of fertilizer is needed during the growing season, and fertilizer should be added in time. Only when nutrients are sufficient can the plant grow better. However, the growth is slow in winter, so you should stop applying fertilizer, otherwise it will cause fertilizer damage. Generally, it is sufficient to apply winter fertilizer once before winter, and then apply fertilizer after the temperature rises in spring and the plants resume growth.

2. What to do if the bottom leaves wither

The wilting of its bottom leaves could be due to two reasons. One is normal metabolism, just dispose of the dead leaves directly. The second reason is that you watered too much and the roots became rotten. Reduce watering, increase ventilation, and get more sunlight. In the later stage, pay attention to controlling the amount of water, it is better to water less rather than more.
