If the plant is exposed to strong light, the plant can be moved to a shaded place; if the watering is too frequent, the watering times can be reduced; if the temperature is too low, the temperature can be raised to about 20-30 ℃; if it is infected with diseases and insect pests, it is necessary to clean up the diseased leaves and spray anthers in time.

Solution: grasp the principle of dry rather than wet when watering. If the soil is loose, it can be watered 1-2 times a week and once a week in winter. If there is too much water, it can be placed in a ventilated place to raise the bottom of the basin.

3. The temperature is too low

Reason: it has relatively high requirements for temperature. Generally, when the temperature is lower than 13 ℃, the growth will be terminated during the dormancy period. As the time goes on, the plant will grow badly and the leaves will become soft and yellowing.

Solution: keep the temperature at 20-30 ℃ as far as possible to maintain its normal growth; the lowest temperature in winter should not be lower than 10 ℃, otherwise the plant will be frostbitten and easily cause death of the whole plant.
