Matters needing attention in Centella asiatica planting

Centella asiatica is suitable for growing in semi-shady places, generally suitable for semi-sunshine, not suitable for strong light irradiation. Pay attention to shading when the light is strong.

Nutrient management: Generally, organic fertilizer should be applied once every 5-20 days. This is more conducive to its root system to absorb nutrients and promote growth.

When you see dead branches and rotten leaves in the leaves of snow grass, you should clean them up in time. Clean branches and leaves should be buried, and their roots should not be used as fertilizer, which will infect other robust branches and leaves and affect their growth.
