Is it suitable to keep Yushu indoors?
A comprehensive introduction to the common knowledge of flower cultivation regarding Yushu, is it suitable to keep Yushu indoors? Please refer to the detailed introduction below.
There are many questions online about whether Yushu is suitable for indoor cultivation, and there are various versions. Some believe it is suitable, while others think it cannot be kept indoors. Of course, there are also those who think it depends on one's mood. So, is Yushu really suitable for indoor cultivation? Let's analyze it.
Information 1: The reason why there is a rumor that Yushu is not suitable for indoor cultivation is because it is said to be toxic and can even release carcinogenic gases. I have also checked some information, and it is true that Yushu is toxic, but it is not as exaggerated as the rumors suggest. It is fine as long as it is not eaten or ingested by mistake. The claim about Yushu releasing carcinogenic gases is a fallacy with no scientific basis.
Information 2: Yushu prefers a warm, dry environment with plenty of sunlight, is not cold-resistant, afraid of strong light, slightly shade-tolerant, and grows best in fertile, well-drained sandy loam soil. The temperature in winter should not be lower than 7℃.
Getting back to the topic, the core of this article is whether Yushu is suitable for indoor cultivation. First of all, it can be confirmed that Yushu is toxic, but as far as I know, many plants, including Epipremnum aureum, Spathiphyllum, and Euphorbia milii, are also toxic and cover a wide range. Therefore, the first issue that flower lovers need to consider and decide is whether they can accept the fact that Yushu is toxic (because some flower lovers have children who are quite naughty, while others do not, so they can consider this on their own). The claim about releasing carcinogenic gases can be ignored, and the same goes for the claim about releasing oxygen, which are just marketing tactics.
Next is the second issue to consider: from a technical standpoint, Yushu is actually suitable for cultivation in a sunlit environment, although it can tolerate semi-shade. Therefore, it is not a problem to keep it in a room with bright scattered light or near a window. However, it is not conducive to the growth of Yushu in overly dark places.
In conclusion: after reading this article, I believe flower lovers can decide whether to keep Yushu indoors or not. Putting Yushu aside, I want to tell flower lovers that it is not suitable to keep too many plants, especially in the bedroom. A few pots are enough.
