How to maintain the eternal youth

1. Suitable temperature

Dieffenbachia is afraid of cold, the temperature cannot be too low. It should be noted that in early spring, the temperature must not be lower than ten degrees, otherwise there is a possibility of frost damage. Specifically, ten to thirty-two degrees are suitable for its growth, as long as the temperature is not too low.

2. Appropriate amount of water

In spring, you should also add appropriate amount of water. In general, the plant itself likes moisture but is not drought-tolerant, so watering is necessary in a timely manner. But it should not be too wet, because it has fleshy roots and too much moisture can easily lead to root rot. If the weather is dry, the air humidity should be appropriately adjusted.

3. Appropriate amount of fertilizer

You can apply fertilizer in spring, but wait until the temperature is above 18 degrees. It is not suitable to apply fertilizer when the temperature is low, and it is also not suitable when the temperature is high. It should be adjusted according to the specific situation.

4. Proper pruning

The growth rate of evergreen in spring is still very fast, so some branches may grow very messy. You can cut off the extra branches in time. If there are branches that are infested with insects or diseased, they should be pruned in time.

6. Pest control

Scale insects are more likely to occur in spring, so prevention is the main focus at this time. If discovered, take medication promptly, apply marathon emulsion once a week, and use it two or three times in a row.
