Let me tell you about some tips and tricks on how to cultivate a fortune tree to make it flourish, as well as some information on the green plant care and watering methods.
Everyone loves fortune trees, and there are four key points to take care of them: lush branches and leaves, flourishing all year round.
1. Ample sunlight for more efficient photosynthesis
2. Reasonable watering, depending on the environment to determine the amount of water
3. Supplement more fertilizer during the peak growing season
4. The soil should be breathable, first taking care of the roots
In an environment with ample sunlight, the leaves of the fortune tree will have more luster, which will help it sprout faster, with dense foliage, neat shape, and a round and large canopy. Through photosynthesis, it can store more nutrients for the winter. Conversely, poor lighting can cause spindly growth, sparse leaves, and a lack of nutrients during winter, leading to root and branch rot.
In a well-ventilated environment with temperatures above 35 degrees, water can be given once a day, depending on the amount of water consumption. In an environment below 35 degrees, water once every three weeks, as the fortune tree consumes water slowly in this environment. Below 10 degrees, watering should be stopped, as the tree stops growing and relies on the nutrients in the trunk. Any excess water can cause root rot. No watering should be done until the temperature recovers.
During the high-temperature rapid growing period, which is summer, the potting soil should be given some slow-release compound fertilizer, with a small handful every two weeks. At other times, foliar fertilizer can be sprayed on the leaves.
How to cultivate a fortune tree to make it flourish: tips and tricks
The potting soil should be a well-draining, breathable medium to prevent waterlogging and root rot, such as a mixture of sand and peat. A fortune tree with good roots has good resistance and can be well cared for in the new year if it survives the winter.
In conclusion, although fortune trees are very shade-tolerant due to their high sugar content, they can survive on the nutrients in the trunk for a long time. When the nutrients in the trunk are exhausted, they can suddenly rot. Therefore, at least a scattered light environment is needed for long-term care. Let's talk about how to cultivate fortune trees better and make a fortune together.
