How to grow hibiscus

1. Breeding conditions

1. Soil: It likes moisture, but its roots are not tolerant to waterlogging, so it should be grown in soil with good drainage and sufficient nutrients. The nutrients in the soil are limited, so base fertilizer needs to be added to the soil before planting.

2. Light: It is not resistant to strong light, so only diffuse light can be used when exposed to light, and the exposure time should not exceed 5 hours.

3. Fertilization: Fertilize frequently during maintenance. Only with sufficient nutrients can the plant grow more vigorously. Fertilize once every two weeks during the growing season and once a month during the non-growing season.

4. Watering: It consumes water quickly during the growing period, so it needs to be watered every day. During the non-growing period, water it every other day. During the dormant period, watering should be gradually reduced until watering is stopped.

2. Breeding Methods

Propagation is generally carried out by cuttings. Cut full branches from healthy plants, insert them into the prepared soil, and place them in a semi-shaded place for maintenance. They will grow roots in about two weeks.

3. Pest and disease control

It is more susceptible to pests. If you find that the branches and leaves are yellowing, the branches are too thin, and the branches and leaves are drooping, it is likely to be infected with pests. At this time, you should use fungicide to kill insects, and strictly follow the instructions for use. If you find bugs in the soil, pull it out, replant it, and then disinfect the old soil before destroying it.
