How to grow round-leaf peperomia

1. Soil

Peperomia likes breathable, loose, well-drained and fertile soil. When caring for it, you can use leaf mold, peat soil, garden soil, river sand and other soils to prepare its culture soil. After preparing the culture soil, you can mix some base fertilizer into it, which can effectively increase the fertility of the soil and is very beneficial to the growth of the plant.

2. Water

Peperomia prefers a humid environment and cannot tolerate long periods of drought. Therefore, when caring for it, you must water it in time and do not let its soil dry out completely, otherwise it will grow poorly. When the soil is almost dry, water it again until the soil is completely soaked.

3. Temperature

It likes warmth and cannot tolerate excessive cold or heat. During the growing season, the temperature of the breeding environment needs to be controlled between 20-30℃. In summer, try not to exceed 35℃. In winter, try to keep the temperature above 10℃. This is more conducive to its growth.

4. Fertilizer

It likes fertilizer, and nitrogen fertilizer should be used as the main fertilizer. It can be applied at any time except in winter. However, there is a difference in the frequency of fertilization during the growing season and summer. Generally in spring and autumn, which is its growing season, fertilizer can be applied every 2-3 weeks. In summer, you can change to applying fertilizer every 2-3 months.

5. Lighting

It has strong shade tolerance but weak sun tolerance. When caring for it, do not place it in a place with strong light for a long time, otherwise it will be sunburned. In spring, summer and autumn, it needs to be properly shaded and only provided with a small amount of diffuse light. In winter, if the light is not strong, there is no need for shading.
