How to maintain old Jinhuangxing

1. Proper hydration

During the growth period of the golden star, it is necessary to replenish water appropriately. The moisture in the soil should be enough to maintain its growth, and no excess water should be accumulated. If you water too much on a regular basis, it is very likely to grow too tall, and in serious cases, the roots may rot. The soil in the pot should be kept slightly dry in severe winter, and water should be controlled appropriately when the temperature is high in midsummer.

2. Reasonable lighting

It is suitable for growing in an environment with sufficient light, so try to place it in a place with sunlight during cultivation. If the light is too weak, the distance between the leaves of the plant will become longer and the plant shape will become very loose, seriously affecting its ornamental value.

3. Apply fertilizer in small amounts

Appropriate fertilization is required during the breeding period. If there is insufficient nutrients in the soil, its growth will also deteriorate. Fertilizer can be applied once every half a month or a month. It is recommended to use phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. The concentration of the fertilizer should not be too high, and the amount should not be too large. When applying fertilizer, do not let the fertilizer splash onto its leaves.

4. Repot every year

If you want it to grow stronger, you need to change the pot once a year during the cultivation period, and the best time is spring. The soil should be suitable for its growth. You can mix garden soil, leaf mold and coarse sand, and add some bone meal as base fertilizer.
