1. Choose suitable potting soil: If green plants want to grow better, they must be prepared with loose, fertile, and well drained soil. Choose pots that are suitable in size and leak water. Do not use sticky soil, as strong soil is not conducive to drainage. Also, do not use a large or deep pot for small green plants, as it is difficult to control the amount of watering. If using small pots for large seedlings and green plants is not conducive to the extension of the root system, it is necessary to change the soil in the pots every other year.
2. Maintain an environment with sufficient sunlight or scattered light for green plants: It is important to know whether your plants prefer shade or sunlight, keep the air in the environment unobstructed, and provide shade or supplementary light to the plants according to the temperature of the season. All plants require light for photosynthesis to promote growth and flowering, avoiding excessive shading of the environment, excessive growth of plants, or poor ventilation of plants that may suffer from pests and diseases.
3. Reasonable watering: If you want green plants to grow well, you need to water and fertilize them reasonably. You cannot water and fertilize them randomly. We need to water green plants based on whether they are drought resistant or prefer humidity. Drought resistant plants should wait for the soil in the pot to completely dry before watering; Green plants that prefer moist soil should be watered in pots with dry and wet soil. Only reasonable watering is conducive to the healthier growth of green plants.
4. Reasonable fertilization: Plant growth requires water and fertilizer to grow more vigorously, and the green plants at home should also be fertilized in appropriate conditions to promote lush branches and leaves. Generally, fertilization is sufficient during the growth period of the green plants, after flowering, and during winter.
5. Pruning: In order for green plants to grow well, we need to learn to prune them. When they are growing vigorously, we should cut off overcrowded branches, elongated branches, weak branches, etc., which is beneficial for the green plants to breathe air, have light, and reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests. If it is a flowering green plant, it is necessary to cut off the remaining flowers and prune the remaining flower branches, diseased and insect branches, etc. in a timely manner to prevent the remaining flowers from continuing to consume nutrients. Before winter, we should cut off the old and dead branches of the plants, which is beneficial for overwintering and promoting the growth of the plants next year.
