How to plant green plants

Green plant is the abbreviation of green ornamental foliage plant, because of its strong shade tolerance, it can be used as indoor ornamental plant in indoor planting and maintenance. So how to grow green plants?

First, how to plant green plants

1. Select plants

Choose healthy, actively growing plants that show no signs of disease or pain. Start with tolerant plants, not plants with special needs. Some suggestions for planting indoor plants are: Dragon blood tree spider plant, snake plant, rubber plant, Douban green grass, peace lily.

2. Light and position

Generally speaking, the best place for plants is a bright window and can only bask in the sun for part of the day. Plants like light, but most don't necessarily like to bake in the sun. Check the label of the plant and follow the instructions on the lighting requirements.

3. Temperature

Indoor plants are usually tropical plants, so it is important that the indoor environment mimic these conditions as much as possible. Generally speaking, the temperature during the day is between 20 and 24 degrees. The temperature does not exceed 10 degrees at night.

4. Basin and soil

Plants need containers of the right size. It's too big. Moist soil can rot the roots. Too small, crowded roots will starve to death. In most cases, the indoor plants you buy can be used in existing containers for about a year. Many indoor plants benefit every few years. Each time you report, you only need a container size (about 1 cm).

Indoor plants need well-drained and nutritious soil. Use a packaged indoor plant pot mixture-the garden soil is too heavy for most plants. Special soil can be used for specific plants (such as cacti, orchids and African violets), but in most cases, indoor pot mixtures can be used.

5. Watering

Water once a week and spray plants with a spray can.

6. Fertilizer

Most plants need to be fertilized during the growing season (from spring to early autumn), using sustained-release pellets or spikes every few months.
