Lighting: Not resistant to exposure. Don't put it in the sun in summer. You can get enough light in spring and autumn.
Watering: the watering frequency should be adjusted according to the climate and environment, the substrate should be in a slightly wet state, and water accumulation should be avoided in rainy days.
Precautions: Indoor maintenance should pay attention to ventilation. Avoid air conditioning outlets in Xia Dong season and don't get too close to heating equipment.
Breeding Methods in Lucky Strike
Pot soil preparation: Haocai has higher requirements on substrate, likes to grow in loose and fertile substrate with good drainage, and has higher requirements on substrate nutrients. When preparing the substrate, try to mix humus soil+garden soil+coarse sand or cinder, and spread a layer of fully decomposed cake fertilizer at the bottom of the flowerpot when serving, so that these nutrients can ensure its robust growth.
Proper lighting: Good colors are not resistant to strong light. If it is kept in the position of strong light for a long time in summer, its leaves will be dehydrated, wilted and sunburned due to long-term high temperature irradiation, especially at noon and early autumn in summer, when the sun is strong, shading measures will be taken after 10 am in summer. At other times, it can be placed in a position with sufficient light to ensure its smooth flowering. If you grow in a cool place indoors for a long time, the leaves are easy to become thin and lose green, which seriously affects the ornamental of plants.
Flexible watering: When maintaining a good color, the frequency of watering is not fixed, and it needs to be flexibly adjusted according to the temperature and humidity of the environment. Haocai has a high demand for water, because its leaves are wider and the water comes out faster. Always keep the substrate in a slightly wet state to ensure that the leaves are straight and green. In the hot and rainy season in summer, you can't water it in rainy days. In rainy days, the air humidity is relatively high, and the rate of water evaporation is very slow. When the basin soil is wet for a long time, reduce watering to avoid root retting.
