Too strong light causes the leaves to be too upright and faded, and even brown spots appear near the leaf tip, while too weak light leads to slow plant growth.

Culture method of Snow White, an indoor plant

1. Initial management.

The maintenance of Snow White flowers should keep the substrate moist and water more during the growing period from March to August. It is necessary to sprinkle water frequently in summer to increase environmental humidity. During the growing period, the amount of fertilizer should be sufficient to promote its rapid growth, and fertilizer and water should be applied every two weeks from March to August. Reduce fertilization after autumn. Can be irrigated with flower balance fertilizer 20-20-20.

2. Light management.

Snow White flowers like the bright and ventilated environment, the light is controlled at 15000-20000LX in spring, shading and ventilation should be strengthened because of high temperature, high temperature and high humidity in summer, and it is better to control the light at 8000-10000Lx in summer. The temperature in autumn and winter is lower, and the light is controlled to 20000-30000Lx or all-day sunshine. If the light is too strong, the leaves will be yellow and green, and the shade will be too long and lodging, which will affect the ornamental effect.

3. Temperature management.

Snow White flowers like high temperature, not cold-resistant, the suitable temperature for growth is 25-30 ℃. The lowest overwintering temperature is above 13 ℃. Once frozen, the leaves will wilt, the terminal bud will be necrotic, and the bottom leaves will fall off. Heating equipment is needed for winter maintenance.

4. Humidity management.

Snow White flowers and plants like high temperature, high humidity, semi-shade or shady environment, and the humidity can be kept at 60%, 70%.

5. Pest control.

Leaf spot disease: high humidity weather, easy to occur. The disease spot is straight brown spot at first, the periphery is water-immersed fade green, and shows wheel-like expansion, round to oval, the edge of brown inside gray-white. In the later stage, black-brown mildew spots appeared in the center of the lesion, and turned into a dark-brown mildew layer under wet conditions. The way to prevent and cure the disease is to remove the diseased leaves in time, and to control it with 800 times mancozeb, once a week, 3-4 times in a row.

Anthrax: occurs mainly on leaves and can spread to petioles in severe cases. In the initial stage, the plaque showed a flooded small macula, and after expansion, it was oval to irregular brown or yellowish brown, slightly rimmed, and in the later stage, the plaque became dry and produced small black spots arranged in wheel patterns. The main reason for this disease is poor ventilation, and it is beneficial to the occurrence of the disease when it is harmed by shell insects. The method of this disease is to strengthen maintenance and increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer; at the initial stage of the disease, 1000 times chlorothalonil can be used, once a week, 3-4 times in a row.

Second, points for attention in breeding Snow White:

1. Resistant to semi-shade, avoid excessive sunlight, but the light is too dark, it will also cause the leaves to fade.

two。 Like wet water, more water should be watered during the growth period from March to August. It is necessary to sprinkle water frequently in summer to increase environmental humidity.

3. Like high temperature, not cold-resistant, suitable temperature for growth 20-30 ℃. The lowest overwintering temperature is above 12 ℃.
