How to raise the meat of lotus (share the method of raising lotus)

Lotus, a succulent plant, is suitable for growing in a warm and drought-tolerant environment, and has the characteristics of looseness, fertility, drainage and ventilation. The demand for water is also very simple, as long as the soil is kept moist; In terms of temperature, the growth environment should be kept between 10-20℃, and the lowest temperature should not be lower than 3℃. In addition, the illumination time should be guaranteed for more than 5 hours every day, and diluted NPK compound fertilizer should be applied every 10~ 15 days during the growth period. The following five aspects are introduced: soil, moisture, light, temperature and fertilization.

1. Land

The growth of lotus requires little soil, as long as it is loose and fertile and has good air permeability and drainage. Generally, peat soil and perlite can be added to the basin soil to increase its air permeability.

Step 2: Moisture

Lotus is a succulent plant with little demand for water. Generally speaking, keep the soil moist and water it when it is dry. Water every 5- 10 day in spring and autumn; In summer, the temperature is high and the water evaporates quickly, so it should be watered every 3-5 days. In winter, the temperature is low, and it is watered 1-2 times a month.

3. Temperature

Lotus, a succulent plant, is suitable for growing in the environment of 10-20℃, with high temperature in summer. In order to avoid sun exposure, it can be placed in a cool place. The temperature is low in winter, so it is necessary to ensure that the growth environment is not lower than 3℃ to avoid frostbite.

lamplight

Purple lotus has a great demand for light, and it needs more than 5 hours of light every day. But the temperature is high in summer, so try to avoid strong direct sunlight. In winter, the temperature is low and the illumination time is short, so it is recommended to place it in a place with sufficient indoor illumination.

fertilize the soil or land

The growth of succulents needs a lot of nutrients, so it needs more fertilization. Generally speaking, diluted NPK compound fertilizer can be used when fertilizing. Fertilize every 10- 15 days in spring and autumn; Fertilize once every 15-20 days when the temperature is high in summer; The temperature is low in winter, so you can fertilize once a month.
