How does the golden and jade tree survive the winter?

1. Move indoors

It likes to grow in warm places and cannot stand the cold winter. Before winter comes, you need to observe the weather conditions and move the plant indoors for maintenance in time. The indoor temperature is generally suitable for growth. You can control the temperature at 15-20 degrees Celsius. It should not be lower than 5 degrees Celsius, otherwise frostbite will occur. Be careful not to place it near heating equipment, otherwise the leaves will become yellow and dry.

2. Exposure to sunlight

The sunlight in winter is not too strong, so you can place it on a sunny balcony. Full exposure to the sun will promote nutrient synthesis and help its growth. It can also increase your own temperature, making it easier to get through the winter.

3. Control watering

Because of the cold climate in winter, the growth activity is slow and the water requirement is less. There is no need to apply too much water. Watering can be controlled during this period. Wait until the soil in the pot is dry, then water it with water at room temperature. Do not overwater, otherwise the roots will rot.

4. Control fertilization

There is no need to apply too much fertilizer. Applying it once a month can meet normal needs. Applying too much fertilizer will cause root rot.

5. Pruning

Winter is the dormant stage, so it is a good time for pruning. Cut off the densely growing and withered branches, and also remove one-third of the branches that have bloomed before, which can reduce nutrient consumption.
