How to cultivate jade

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: The most suitable temperature is between 24 and 26 degrees. It is not very cold-resistant and may be frozen below five degrees. So, try to move it indoors during the winter, near a window if possible.

2. Light: It likes light. Therefore, try to place it in a location with good sunlight during the growth stage. However, direct sunlight in summer also needs to be blocked. In winter, place it in the best sunlight location indoors, not too dark. If it is kept indoors all the time, then there is no need for shade because the sunlight will not be too strong.

3. Watering: It likes moisture, but not too much water, and there should not be too much water accumulation. Generally speaking, from spring to bulb season, the substrate can be kept slightly moist due to rapid growth. During the rainy season or after excessive watering, drain out the soil in time. In winter, you need to control watering and just water a little after the substrate is dry.

4. Fertilization: Jade plant does not require much fertilizer. You can choose a fertile soil substrate and then mix in some base fertilizer. After that, top dressing can be applied every two or three months, and the concentration should not be too high.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: Sowing method can be used. This method is best used from April to June, when the temperature is preferably between 15 and 25 degrees. Choose the right seeds and the right substrate, and it is best to disinfect it first. After sowing, the temperature should also be suitable and the substrate should not be too dry. After a week, they will generally germinate.

2. Repotting: Try to do it once a year, which is beneficial to its growth. Generally speaking, new soil can be prepared in the following ways: leaf mold, sandy loam, lime soil, coarse sand, etc. After repotting, try to place it in a cooler place with a temperature of 20 degrees, so that it can adapt to the environment more easily.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: If the plant is exposed to rain during the rainy season or is watered too much, it is prone to "root rot", which will cause root rot and then the condition of the entire plant will be affected. You can remove the plant from the pot and repair the root system, then use pesticides such as carbendazim and chlorpyrifos to treat it.

2. Pests: There are relatively few pests. Occasionally, some "red spiders" may appear. They can be wiped off with a wet cloth or used medicine.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: Not only is it non-toxic, but it also has a strong ability to absorb toxic substances.

2. Can it be kept at home: It is quite suitable, it is ornamental and also has purifying properties.
