Breeding points:

First, the choice of soil.

Hupilan needs loose soil and air permeability, so when mixing soil with Hupilan, you must pay attention to using 2/3 rotten leaves and 1/3 garden soil, and remember that the soil must be loose and air permeable, otherwise it will cause water not to evaporate easily, leading to root rot.

Second, the demand for sunshine.

Hu Pilan likes light, so she must bask in the sun from time to time. It is best to put it in a place where it can be directly illuminated. If conditions do not permit, it should also be placed near the sun. If left in a dark place for a long time, it will cause the leaves to turn yellow.

Third, temperature.

Hupilan has high requirements on temperature. The suitable growth temperature is 20-30℃, and the lowest in winter should not be lower than 10℃, so we must pay attention to it, especially in the northern region.

Fourth, water.

Hupilan also has a high demand for water. Generally speaking, if the soil is loose, it needs to be watered twice a week, but only once in winter because of the climate.

Fifth, pruning

Compared with other green plants in China, Hupilan grows faster, so when the pot is full, it needs to be pruned manually, mainly to cut off the old leaves and overgrown places to ensure its sunshine and growth space.

Sixth, change the pot

Hupilan is a perennial plant. Generally speaking, it should be changed every two years. When changing pots, we should pay attention to supplementing nutrients to the new soil to ensure its nutrient supply.

Seventh, planting methods.

Huperzia bodinieri is a kind of root hair plant. Generally speaking, only a few plants need to be planted. You can close the pot in a year. When planting, first put a part of soil under the pot, then plant it from one side of the pot and plant it evenly in the pot.

Eighth, fertilization

Hupilan doesn't need much fertilizer, and it only needs to be fertilized twice a month during the growing season. Pay attention to the application of dilute fertilizer solution to ensure vigorous growth.
