How to spend the summer with Euphorbia milii

1. Control sunlight

It likes sunlight, but the sunlight outside in summer is too strong, so it is better to keep it in semi-shade. If the location where it is kept has good sunlight, you can give it 50% shade. In this way, the Euphorbia milii grown will be stronger and the color of the leaves will be more beautiful.

2. Water Management

In summer, because the temperature is very high, even above 33°C, the plant will enter a dormant period. At this time, the demand for water is not much, and there is no need to add too much water. Improper application may cause root damage. When you notice that the soil in the pot is dry, you can add some water in the morning or evening. Never water the roots at noon.

3. Fertilizer and water management

The demand for fertilizer is not much, and even fertilizer needs to be controlled. There are differences for indoor and outdoor. If it is maintained outdoors, fertilizer can be given about 3-5 days. If it is maintained indoors, fertilizer can be given every 4-7 days. When the weather is particularly hot, fertilization can be suspended.

4. Spray water appropriately

In order to lower the temperature of the plant itself, you can spray water mist on the Euphorbia milii to achieve the cooling effect, and keep it up 2-3 times a day.
