How to raise golden button

1. Breeding environment

1. Soil: Use soil that is rich in nutrients and has good air permeability. Sandy soil is best, or you can use peat soil mixed with a small amount of perlite, vermiculite and cinders.

2. Temperature: Golden Button likes warmth, the temperature should be around 25 degrees. It is not cold-resistant, and the temperature should not drop below ten degrees in winter to ensure safety.

3. Watering: Keep the soil slightly moist during the growing period. Especially in summer, water is indispensable, and water spraying is also necessary. In winter, you can water the plant once every ten days, but not too much.

4. Fertilization: An appropriate amount of base fertilizer can be mixed into the soil during planting. Top dressing is usually done once a month. Mainly spring and autumn. It is dormant in summer and too cold in winter, so no fertilizer is needed.

5. Light: Place it in a sunny place with scattered light as best. Be sure to avoid too strong light to avoid burning the leaves.

2. Pest Control

For golden buttons, it is more prone to insect pests. The pests that threaten it are mainly "red spiders" and "whiteflies".

It is necessary to regularly check whether there are white spots and spider silk on the surface of the plants, and use pesticides to eliminate them in time if found.

3. Breeding Methods

The golden button is mostly propagated by division. It can be done in spring and autumn. Cut off the seedlings at the base. Prepare good quality substrate. Then plant the seedlings in the soil, water them after two days, and avoid strong light.
