1. Ensure every leaf gets sunlight
Guanyin Lotus, a type of succulent plant, prefers a well-lit environment. Insufficient light can cause the leaves to lack vitality or even turn yellow and dry. To ensure that the Guanyin Lotus has lush green leaves, adequate light is essential. When caring for the plant, it is recommended to rotate the pot every two to three days to ensure that every leaf gets sunlight. This will make its growth more "balanced" and enhance its ornamental value.
2. Guanyin Lotus is sensitive to cold, so indoor temperature must be controlled
Succulents are generally sensitive to cold, and Guanyin Lotus is no exception. Its optimal growth temperature is between 20-30°C, with an overwintering temperature of 15°C. Although it won't die at 0°C, its growth essentially stops. However, if the temperature drops below 0°C, Guanyin Lotus will definitely be frostbitten. Therefore, when caring for Guanyin Lotus, it is important to ensure that the indoor temperature is not too low, as otherwise, the leaves and roots may rot.
3. Remember to provide a moist soil environment for Guanyin Lotus
In the process of caring for Guanyin Lotus, one point to note is that it prefers to grow in loose, fertile, and moist soil. If the soil in the pot is too dry or waterlogged, it is not conducive to its growth. Moist soil is best for the rapid growth of Guanyin Lotus. To ensure it continuously sprouts new leaves, the soil should be kept moist. Therefore, when watering, follow the principle of watering when the soil is dry and moist. Additionally, in winter, avoid using water that is too cold, and it is recommended to let it sit for a few hours to warm up before using.
4. Fertilizing frequency depends on the season
During the peak growing season of Guanyin Lotus, fertilizing should be frequent. For example, in the summer and autumn seasons, its metabolism is relatively fast, so the demand for fertilizer is also high. It is recommended to fertilize once a month. Ideally, use fertilizer every 20 days. In winter and spring, the growth rate is slow, so the demand for fertilizer is low. Fertilizing can be done once every two months or one and a half months. When choosing fertilizer, it is recommended to use low-nitrogen, high-phosphorus and potassium flower fertilizer.
The above is a comprehensive explanation of how to care for Guanyin Lotus and share the cultivation methods of Guanyin Lotus, hoping it will be helpful to you.
