Chlorophytum is a common indoor leaf-viewing plant, which has good air purification function and beautiful ornamental value. However, many people often encounter trouble when maintaining spider plants and do not know how to make them grow healthier and more beautiful. This article will share with you the skills and experience of maintaining spider flowers from various aspects such as sunshine, temperature, watering, fertilization, and pest control.
1: Reasonable sunshine time to maintain the health of the spider orchid, it is necessary to provide it with sufficient sunshine. Chlorophytum flowers in the sun can better carry out photosynthesis and promote leaf growth. When choosing a location for the spider plant, choose a place that is bright but avoids direct sunlight.
Second: Suitable temperature environment Chlorophytum is more tolerant of temperature requirements, but it likes a warm environment. In summer, you can place spider plants outdoors in a well-ventilated manner, and in spring and autumn, the indoor temperature should be kept between 15-25 degrees Celsius.
3: Correct watering method One of the keys to the maintenance of spider plants is watering. Pour the right amount of water on the spider orchid flowers, not too much or too little. Under normal circumstances, each watering should keep the soil moist, but avoid standing water. When it is dry in summer, you can increase the frequency of watering.
Four: Follow the principle of fertilization. The nutrient requirements of spider plants are not high, so the frequency of fertilization can be reduced appropriately. Generally speaking, apply comprehensive fertilizer every 2-3 months. Pay attention to avoid excessive fertilization to prevent root burning.
5: Remove sick leaves and dead leaves in a timely manner. During the growth of spider plants, some sick leaves or dead leaves will inevitably appear. Finding and removing these leaves in a timely manner helps maintain the health of the plant. At the same time, it can also reduce the breeding of pests and diseases.
6: Prevent the leaves of clycophanum from accumulating dust easily, which affects the appearance and normal photosynthesis. Gently wiping the leaves with a wet rag or sprayer regularly can effectively remove dust and make the spider orchid flowers appear green.
Seven: Avoid excessive swinging. The root system of the spider plant is relatively small and is easily affected by external swinging. When placing spider plants, try to avoid frequent movement or shaking to avoid damage to the roots.
Eight: Pay attention to ventilation and ventilation. The spider orchid should be placed in a well-ventilated environment. Appropriate ventilation can help regulate indoor humidity, reduce the breeding of pests and diseases, and promote the healthy growth of spider plants.
Nine: Maintain the right humidity. Chlorophyllums prefer a humid environment, but not too humid. Maintaining appropriate humidity will help the normal growth of spider plants. You can use a sprayer to spray water regularly to increase the humidity of the surrounding air.
Ten: Reasonably arrange the dormancy period. The spider flower has a dormancy period every year, usually in winter. At this time, you can reduce the frequency of watering and fertilizing, and place the spider orchid in a warm place to help it enter hibernation smoothly.
XI: Choose the right variety There are many varieties of spider orchid, and the maintenance needs of each variety may be slightly different. When selecting spider flowers, suitable varieties should be selected according to their own maintenance capabilities and conditions to improve the success rate of maintenance.
12: Regularly observe the plant status Regularly observe the plant status of spider orchid, including leaf color, growth status, whether there are pests and diseases, etc., which helps to detect problems in a timely manner and take corresponding measures to deal with them.
XIII: Reasonably pruning plants and timely pruning is an important part of maintaining the healthy growth of spider plants. When the spider plant is growing well, you can moderately cut off some excessively luxuriant parts to promote balanced growth of the plant.
XIV: Scientific prevention and control of pests and diseases. Hanging orchids are vulnerable to some common pests and diseases, such as aphids, red spiders, etc. Organic pesticides can be sprayed regularly, or biological control methods can be used to protect spider plants from pests and diseases.
Fifteen: Through reasonable maintenance methods such as sunshine, temperature, watering, and fertilization, as well as measures such as pest control and pruning, we can effectively cultivate spider flowers. At the same time, during the maintenance process, attention should be paid to observing the state of the plant and handling problems in a timely manner to ensure the healthy growth of spider plants. As long as we master these skills, we believe that everyone can grow a beautiful and lush spider orchid.
