How to raise Snow White?

Snow White is not a princess written by the Grimm brothers in Germany, it is a kind of plant. It is as noble and pure as Snow White in fairy tales. So, how does Snow White raise it?

First, how to raise Snow White

1. Soil selection

Snow White is suitable for breeding in loess or red soil, mix well with some fertilizer and put it in a basin.

2. Initial maintenance

In the basic maintenance of Snow White flowers, we should pay attention to keep the substrate moist. From March to August, this is the growing period of Snow White, so we should water more. The summer climate is dry, but also need to sprinkle water frequently to increase the humidity of the environment.

In the growth period from March to August, we should also remember to apply enough fertilizer to promote its rapid growth, and apply fertilizer and water once every two weeks. Reduce fertilization after autumn.

3. Lighting

Snow White is a tropical plant, so she likes to change the environment with plenty of light and good ventilation, but it is necessary to strengthen shading and ventilation in summer, and the temperature is low in autumn and winter, so it is best to keep full sunshine. Note that the leaves will turn yellowish green if the light is too strong, and the shade will grow too long and lodge, affecting the ornamental effect.

4. Temperature

Snow White flowers like high temperature, but not cold-resistant, the most suitable growth temperature is 25-3 degrees Celsius. The overwintering temperature should be kept above 13 ℃. Once frozen, it will lead to withering, bud necrosis and shedding, so winter maintenance needs heating equipment.

5. Humidity

Snow White plants like high temperature. When living in high humidity, semi-shade or shaded environment, keep the humidity between 60% and 70%, so as to avoid malnutrition caused by insufficient humidity.

6. Diseases and insect pests

Leaf spot disease is easy to occur in high humidity weather, mainly black-brown mildew spots on leaves. The treatment is to remove sick leaves in time and use 800 times mancozeb for prevention and treatment, once a week, 3-4 times in a row.

On the leaves, it is also easy to produce anthrax, which can spread to the petiole when it is serious. The main symptom is yellow markings. The solution is to strengthen maintenance and increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer; 1000 times chlorothalonil can be used in the initial stage of the disease, once a week, 3-4 times in a row.
